Dr. Kevin Sadati Unveils a Game-Changing Facelift Technique at New York Surgical Symposium

Facial Rejuvenation Enters a New Era

Facial rejuvenation is entering a new era—and Dr. Kevin Sadati is at the forefront of that transformation. This past April, the renowned facial plastic surgeon introduced a pioneering facelift technique at the prestigious Facelift Master Course in New York City, earning recognition from leading aesthetic surgeons worldwide.

Introduction of the Preservation Deep Plane Facelift

Dr. Sadati, based in Newport Beach, California, revealed his Preservation Deep Plane Facelift with Rotating Pedicle Flap—an advanced surgical method that merges deep tissue repositioning with a preservation-focused approach. Over the course of four days, attendees at the sold-out symposium, including sessions at Cornell Medical School’s state-of-the-art cadaver lab, were given a front-row seat to this evolution in facial surgery.

How Dr. Sadati’s Technique Differs from Traditional Facelifts

Unlike traditional deep plane facelifts, Dr. Sadati’s technique incorporates a rotating pedicle flap, which allows for greater jawline and neck definition without disrupting key vascular structures. This preservation facelift technique reduces trauma, improves healing, and yields more natural-looking and longer-lasting results.

“This is about pushing boundaries without compromising structure,” said Dr. Sadati during his keynote. “By respecting the integrity of the facial ligaments and vessels, we not only achieve better outcomes—we redefine what patients can expect from modern facelifts.”

Detailed Anatomical Approach

Dr. Sadati also walked participants through the intricate dissection of the prezygomatic, premasseteric, and subplatysmal spaces. By releasing and repositioning foundational anatomy, such as the platysma-auricular ligament and cervical retaining ligaments, his method provides a safer, more predictable extension into the neck. The result? More elegant neck contours and sharper jawlines.

Symposium Highlights: Live Surgeries and Hands-On Training

Attendees saw other deep plane techniques in action during live surgery broadcasts and gained hands-on experience during cadaveric labs, where Dr. Sadati guided them through complex facial planes and tissue handling. His emphasis on anatomical precision and preservation resonated with peers, many of whom noted the technique’s value in treating a range of aging patterns and facial structures.

The Facelift Master Course: A Premier Educational Event

The Facelift Master Course, widely regarded as one of the top educational events in aesthetic surgery, featured a wide array of content, from endoscopic brow lifts and lip lifts to intricate rhinoplasty techniques. What set this event apart was its emphasis on blending artistry with evidence-based surgical advancements.

Impact on Patient Expectation and Surgical Training

As patient expectations rise and demand grows for subtle, long-lasting results, Dr. Sadati’s contribution couldn’t be more timely. His blend of technical expertise and artistic insight is helping to reshape the facelift landscape, both in operating rooms and in how surgeons are trained.

Dr. Sadati’s Continued Leadership in Facial Rejuvenation

From his Southern California clinic to the global surgical stage, Dr. Sadati continues to lead with innovation, education, and an unwavering commitment to natural-looking rejuvenation.
