Facelift — Deep Plane & Extended Deep Plane

Dr. Jacono performs multiple facelift variants — including his patented M.A.D.E. (Minimal Access Deep Plane Extended) mini facelift, Extended Deep Plane, SMAS, Ponytail, Short Scar, Asian, Male, and Revision facelifts. Procedures are performed under local or twilight sedation in the on-site AAAASF-certified surgical suite. The technique repositions underlying facial muscles and redistributes fat without relying solely on skin tension, delivering results that can last 10–15 years with return to daily activity within one to two weeks.

At the New York Center for Facial Plastic Surgery on Park Avenue, Dr. Andrew Jacono offers a comprehensive portfolio of facelift techniques tailored to individual anatomy and desired outcome. His proprietary M.A.D.E. — Minimal Access Deep Plane Extended — procedure is a patented hybrid approach that combines the minimal scarring of a short-scar technique with the deeper structural lift of an extended deep plane dissection, addressing jowls, marionette lines, descended cheeks, and lax neck skin through small incisions placed in front of and behind the ears. For patients seeking the most comprehensive rejuvenation, the Extended Deep Plane Facelift repositions the entire facial soft-tissue envelope at the deepest anatomical layer, avoiding the telltale pulled appearance associated with older SMAS-only techniques. Dr. Jacono is also experienced in revision facelifts for patients unsatisfied with prior surgery performed elsewhere. All procedures are performed at the clinic's AAAASF-accredited ambulatory surgical facility, which houses two private operating rooms, a dedicated recovery suite, and VIP concierge support including post-procedure car service and beauty services. Rather than subjecting patients to general anaesthesia, Dr. Jacono typically uses local or twilight sedation, reducing both risk and recovery burden. Dr. Jacono holds dual board certification in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Head and Neck Surgery, is designated an Advanced Facial Plastic Surgery Fellowship Director, and has published more than 50 peer-reviewed articles in journals including the Aesthetic Surgery Journal and JAMA Facial Plastic Surgery. His work has been featured in the New York Times, Air Mail, Newsweek, and Harper's Bazaar. Patients travelling to Manhattan from abroad or from outside New York City receive full concierge coordination, making this a leading destination for medical tourists seeking elite-level facial rejuvenation in New York City.
