The tumescent facelift provides ease of dissection, improved visualization, and hemostasis. It is ideally suited for lipodissection (tunneling) and an extended SMAS dissection to adequately tighten the platysma and elevate the facial soft tissues. The video describes the technique through a series of interdependent maneuvers and details the subtle, but necessary, superior/anterior rotation of the SMAS in order to achieve an excellent outcome without midline platysma plication. Part 2 of 2.
