Dr. Xiao Zhongye · ShanghaiThe doctor behind the plan
Experience matters. Judgment matters more.
Dr. Xiao’s approach begins with what should be preserved: facial identity, expression, proportion, and the patient’s own priorities. The procedure name comes after the anatomical assessment.
Two lifting approaches · one individualized plan
The difference is incision and surgical plane—not a simple age label.
9D Facelift and 9D Deep Plane Facelift are distinct operations. Facial liposuction may be combined with either when fat distribution is obscuring the jawline.
9D Facelift
Designed around strategically hidden, smaller incisions with an effective lift and comparatively faster early recovery for suitable patients.
- Smaller, discreet incision strategy
- Lift direction customized to the face
- Natural expression and identity prioritized
- Can be paired with facial liposuction when indicated
9D Deep Plane
Uses a larger incision approach to access and reposition the fascia and deep-plane tissues, with a more involved surgical and recovery pathway.
- Deep fascia / deep-plane repositioning
- Larger incision and broader access
- More involved early recovery expectations
- Can be paired with facial liposuction when indicated
Facial liposuction helps re-establish a clearer jawline.
Lifting repositions support; liposuction addresses selected fat deposits that blur the mandibular border. Either lifting approach may be combined with liposuction, but the need and extent must be confirmed in person.
Real patient stories
Recovery shown as a journey—not a single perfect photo.
These patients authorized publication of their images. The stage, lighting, makeup, angle, and individual healing all matter; another patient’s result cannot predict yours.
