Dr. Sanjay Grover, Featured in NewBeauty

Dr. Grover was honored to be featured in a recent article by NEWBEAUTY:

“A Leading Plastic Surgeon Shares Everything to Know About the Deep Plane Facelift”

Dr. Grover discussed the recent uptick in facial procedures, saying:

whether that’s “due to people seeing themselves on Zoom calls, or whether they are on social media doing more selfies. Or perhaps they have more time to recover now because they’re working from home, or they have more money because they aren’t traveling.”

Whatever the reason, Dr. Grover welcomes these facial rejuvenation patients with open arms. “After my Stanford training, I did an additional aesthetics surgery and ocuplastic surgery fellowship in Atlanta, so I’m very well-versed in treating patients for facial and oculoplastic aesthetic procedures. We also have a brand-new, fully accredited outpatient surgery center that’s state-of-the-art, so our patients are in good hands.”

Dr. Grover went to discuss the details of the deep plane facelift, one of the most popular facelift procedures today.

Less Scarring and Better Healing with the Deep Plane Facelift

Dr. Grover covered the reason the deep place facelift has a smoother recovery period and results in less scarring:

“...because we’re putting the tension on the underlying muscular tissue—the SMAS—as opposed to the skin, the scars heal beautifully.”

He went on later to answer a question about the length of recovery time:

“[Recovery is] actually not [longer] because there’s less bruising in general due to less direct undermining of the skin.”

The best candidates for a deep plane facelift–it’s not just for those with advanced signs of age

In Dr. Grover’s interview, he was asked if a deep plane facelift is just for patients who are showing advanced signs of age. His answer was surprising:

“Actually no. In many ways, it’s ideal for a younger patient—someone in their early 40s—but it’s also useful for patients in their late 70s and early 80s.”

He went on to explain:

“A deep plane facelift can help give improvements in the midface with the nasolabial folds and the smile lines, as well as the jowls and neck bands. It can also improve the contour of the neck and create a more distinct jawline. As we age, we lose volume in our midface and the angle of our jaw due to bony loss, so it can really help to reposition the tissues.”

Dr. Grover appreciated being interviewed and featured in NEWBEAUTY

During his interview, Dr. Grover went more into depth about the deep plane facelift, and he also answered questions about complementary procedures that enhance results, such as RF Vivace microneedling, the Ellevate neck lift, and laser treatments. In discussing his practice, NEWBEAUTY wrote:

For patients visiting Newport Beach, CA plastic surgeon Sanjay Grover, MD, they get a one-stop-shop for all of their aesthetic needs. “What’s nice is that some patients can get all of their treatments performed at one center, or by one surgeon,” says the Stanford-trained doctor who’s been practicing for 20 years and specializes in the face, nose, breast, and body. “Our practice is called Grover Aesthetics, and our surgery center is Grover Surgical Arts, but we have our Med Spa at Grover Aesthetics, so we offer a number of treatments here—everything from fillers and neuromodulators to lasers, microneedling and other minimally invasive treatments.”
