# SMAS Facelift Brisbane

*SMAS facelift consultation and surgical planning with Dr Scott J Turner, FRACS — Specialist Plastic Surgeon.*

SMAS facelift is one of the more established facelift techniques considered by Brisbane and South East Queensland patients with early-to-moderate facial ageing. The technique works on the Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System — a fibromuscular layer beneath the skin that supports the cheek and jawline — to reposition the structural foundation of the face rather than pulling on the skin alone. For patients with moderate jowls and jawline blur but limited midface or neck involvement, SMAS technique may produce durable structural change through a shorter operation and shorter recovery than deep plane approaches.

Dr Scott J Turner is a Specialist Plastic Surgeon (FRACS) who consults in Brisbane at Herstellen Clinic, 490 Boundary Street, Spring Hill. Consultations cover anatomical assessment, surgical planning, and discussion of whether SMAS facelift — or a different facelift technique — is appropriate for the individual patient. Surgery is performed at accredited private hospitals in Sydney, with routine post-operative follow-up coordinated by Dr Turner and the Herstellen Clinic team in Brisbane.
