Facial plastic surgery is evolving rapidly—and leading the charge is Dr. Kevin Sadati, a board-certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon known for his innovative techniques and artistic approach to rejuvenation. In April 2025, Dr. Sadati presented his groundbreaking Preservation Deep Plane Facelift with Rotating Pedicle Flap at the esteemed Facelift Master Course in New York City, capturing the attention of top surgeons from around the world.
The four-day event, held at premier Manhattan venues, combined academic lectures, cadaver dissections at Cornell Medical School, and 3 live surgical demonstrations. Among the standout contributors, Dr. Sadati introduced a technique recently published in PRS Global Open—a method that enhances traditional deep plane lifting with a preservation-focused philosophy.
At the heart of this new approach is a rotating pedicle flap, which allows surgeons to reposition facial tissue more dynamically while preserving vital vascular and ligamentous structures. The result: less trauma, more natural outcomes, and improved longevity of results.
“Incorporating preservation principles into the deep plane has allowed us to redefine what a facelift can accomplish,” Dr. Sadati shared during his lecture. “This technique not only elevates tissues—it elevates expectations.”
Dr. Sadati detailed how the technique safely navigates key anatomical spaces—the prezygomatic, premasseteric, and subplatysmal planes—while releasing structures like the platysma-auricular ligament and cervical retaining ligaments. This enables predictable extension of the dissection into the neck, offering refined jawline and neck contouring.
In addition to his presentation, Dr. Sadati led hands-on cadaver lab sessions, mentoring fellow surgeons in facial dissection, SMAS manipulation, and deep plane technique optimization. Attendees practiced techniques with real-time guidance, gaining practical tools for safer and more effective surgery.
The Facelift Master Course covered a wide range of advanced procedures, including endoscopic brow lifting, upper lip lifts, and complex rhinoplasty. Through its combination of lectures and hands-on learning, the course emphasized surgical safety, aesthetic precision, and the importance of anatomical preservation.
With increasing demand for natural, lasting facial rejuvenation, Dr. Sadati’s contribution arrives at a pivotal time. His work reflects a broader shift in plastic surgery—where deep anatomical knowledge, artistic vision, and patient-centered results converge.
From his Newport Beach practice to international lecture halls, Dr. Sadati continues to influence the future of facial rejuvenation. His Preservation Deep Plane Facelift is already redefining expectations—and setting a new standard for excellence.
