Face and Neck Lift | Basu Aesthetics + Plastic Surgery

Subtle. Sophisticated. Stunning.

Deep plane face and neck lift surgery reverses the most noticeable signs of aging, including:

Fine lines, wrinkles, and folds
Sagging skin
Jowls
Neck bands
Double chin
Loss of jawline definition

You’ll look rejuvenated, not different. People won’t be able to tell you’ve had surgery, they will just know you look amazing without that overdone operated look.

Before

If your mid to lower face is beginning to show visible signs of aging—such as wrinkles, sagging skin, or jowls—a deep plane face and neck lift might be the ideal solution for achieving a more refreshed, youthful appearance that still looks like you.

During

The deep plane face and neck lift targets the deeper layer or strength layer of your face and neck. This technique involves lifting and tightening this strength layer. The overlying skin stays attached to the deeper layer and gracefully glides and gets tightened—creating a more natural and longer-lasting result

After

Our technique delivers dramatic, long-lasting results by eliminating jowls, defining the jawline, and smoothing the neck. After recovery, you’ll look naturally refreshed and more youthful, with changes subtle enough to go unnoticed by others.

Results that Last

Look Younger, Naturally

We’re not just tightening your skin. The deep plane technique targets the deeper layers of your face, resulting in a refreshed and natural look without that pulled or “windblown” appearance.

Embrace Your Age, Defy the Signs

Because we’re treating deeper layers of the face, the deep plane face and neck lift helps you look 15-20 years younger.

The Face and Neck Lift That Blends In

With our advanced technique, you can expect a smoother recovery with minimal bruising. The incisions are discreet and heal rapidly, so you’ll look refreshed without anyone knowing.

A Beautiful Transformation, Without the Pain

Most patients are surprised by how easy recovery is, with the majority needing only Tylenol for relief.

Don’t Just Take Our Word for It

Women and men across Houston trust plastic surgeons Dr. Bob Basu and Dr. Taylor DeBusk for due to their expertise in facial anatomy and compassionate care. Their exceptional face and neck lift results and glowing reviews highlight their skill and dedication.

“Before the surgery, I hated to look in the mirror. I looked older than I felt and tried very hard not be in any pictures. After surgery, I love the way I look. The surgery makes me look at least 10-15 years younger. It is fantastic. Now, I don’t hesitate to be in family pictures or look in the mirror.”

“Thank you Dr. Basu and Staff! I am very pleased with the outcome of my surgery. I am especially happy with the professionalism, the attention to detail and the friendliness of the entire staff. I am 57 years of age and was in need of a neck lift, face lift and liposuction around the chin. The doctor and staff listened to my needs and concerns and the outcome is better than I expected. Also, I had very little downtime. I was amazed how quickly I healed and recovered from the surgery.”

“I would highly recommend Dr Basu. I had a facelift with fat grafting and am very pleased with my results. I was especially concerned about my lower face sagging and the results are impressive without looking like I had anything done.”

“Dr. Basu and his amazing staff are all wonderful!! He himself is a magic maker and exceeded my expectations on my outcome after surgery! Life changing outcomes! Someone give this man a wand, because he is that amazing and talented! Thank you!”

Focus	Targets deeper tissues and muscles, lifting and tightening the face by releasing ligaments that anchor facial muscles and connective tissues.	Primarily targets superficial skin and muscle layers.
Results	Dramatic enhancement and a more youthful appearance.	Less dramatic improvement but still effective for addressing mild to moderate aging.
Longevity of results	Results last 5–15 years or longer.	Results last 5–7 years.
Recovery	Most of our patients are working from home within a few days, back at a desk job in 7–14 days, and back in the gym within 3 weeks.	Similarly, patients should focus on rest and minimal movement during the first few weeks.

Will I have noticeable scars?

With our deep plane face and neck lift technique, all the work happens in the deeper layers of the face, keeping the skin attached where it naturally glides. This means there’s almost no tension on the incision lines. Unlike a skin lift or SMAS lift, the incisions heal faster—and for most patients, they’re barely noticeable within just a few weeks.

What can I expect during my deep plane face and neck lift recovery?

After your deep plane face and neck lift, your surgeon will provide detailed instructions to help ensure a smooth, speedy recovery. This is outpatient surgery, and you can eat whatever you like afterward. Recovery isn’t very painful—over 90% of our patients only need Tylenol. Most feel comfortable returning to the office within 7–14 days and are cleared to hit the gym in just 3 weeks.

How much younger will I look after my face and neck lift?

While everyone is unique, many of our patients look 10–20 years younger after surgery. We believe in a holistic approach, combining surgery with non-surgical treatments for best results. Our surgeons will design a plan for you, including meticulous attention to making your skin look fabulous and refreshed.
