Dr. Kristina Zakhary Releases Patient Advisory: Optimum Mobility Facelift Trademark Offers a Safer, More Targeted Alternative to Deep Plane Facelifts

As deep plane facelifts surge in popularity across social media, Dr. Kristina Zakhary, a board-certified facial plastic surgeon in Calgary, is issuing a patient-focused advisory clarifying why deeper is not always better - and why her Optimum Mobility Facelift Trademark may be the safer, more effective choice for the vast majority of facelift patients.
CALGARY, AB - November 14, 2025 - Both techniques aim for natural, long-lasting facial rejuvenation. But according to Dr. Zakhary, the deep plane facelift's broader tissue release, longer operative time, and higher technical complexity make it an overly aggressive option for many people who simply want cleaner jawlines, softened jowls, and a smoother neck.

Why Deep Plane Facelifts Are Not Always the Best Fit

Deep plane surgery works beneath the SMAS layer and requires releasing key retaining ligaments to lift the cheek, jowl, and jawline as a single unit. While this can be beneficial in patients with true midface descent, it also means:

*
A larger dissection footprint

*
Greater exposure of delicate structures

*
A longer, denser early recovery

*
Higher variability in outcome depending on surgeon skill

*
More surgical release than many patients require

Dr. Zakhary notes that many patients who are told they "must" undergo a deep plane facelift actually present with lower-face aging, where a deep approach does not offer meaningfully better results - only more disruption.

Optimum Mobility Facelift Trademark : A Controlled, SMAS-Based Alternative Built Around Facial Function

To provide a safer, more predictable option, Dr. Zakhary developed the Optimum Mobility Facelift Trademark , a controlled SMAS-based procedure that mobilizes only what needs to move - and leaves the rest undisturbed.

The technique focuses on:

*
Targeted SMAS releases instead of broad deep-plane dissection

*
A measured surgical footprint

*
Preserved facial expression and natural animation

*
A smoother recovery curve

*
Results tailored to what actually bothers the patient

Patients benefit from a firmer jawline, softened jowls, refined neck contours, and natural movement that avoids the "pulled" appearance associated with skin-based facelifts.

"Our philosophy is simple: change what needs changing, and don't disturb what doesn't," said Dr. Zakhary. "You don't need deeper surgery to get a beautiful, durable result - you need the right surgery for your anatomy."
