About Necklift (Platysmaplasty) Procedures
The neck is a very vulnerable area due to the effect of gravity and lack of firm bony support. This can be addressed with a surgical Neck Lift or Platysmaplasty. Techniques can also include liposuction.
Neck lift (platysmaplasty) surgery can address your concerns by tightening loose neck muscles, while removing excess fat and skin from your neck.
Can a Platysmaplasty(Necklift) address your neck concerns?
We all know that meloplasty (facelift), can address aspects of facial aging that cannot be addressed through diet, exercise, or skincare. But we may not know the role of Plastysmaplasty ( Neck Lift). Is it the same as a facelift ? Can it be combined with a facelift?
Our goal is to help you with the right solution to address your concerns.
As we age, our facial features change due to the underlying changes in the skin, fat, muscle and bone.The skin on the face and neck loses elasticity, becomes thinner and sags. There is a reduction of fat volume in the face. Additionally, the underlying facial bones shrink and reduce the support to soft tissues ( skin, fat and muscle) leading to its downward descent.
This natural process results in flatter cheeks, deepening lines around the mouth, a less defined jawline with the formation of jowls, and loose folds of skin on the neck.
Modern meloplasty (facelift surgery) combined with a platysmaplasty (neck lift) techniques can address these changes. Ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you have visible creases, lines, deep folds other signs of aging?
- Are you bothered by excess loose neck skin and jowls?
- Do you notice loss of facial contours and jawline and neck definition?
- Do you wish removal of jowls and definiton of neck and jawline?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, a meloplasty (facelift) combined with a platysmaplasty (neck lift) could be the appropriate choice. Unlike temporary solutions like injectables and thread lifts, a surgical facelift or neck lift offers longer-lasting results.
Our goal is to help you with the right solution to address your concerns.
Are You An Ideal Candidate?
Determining whether you're an ideal candidate for a Platysmaplasty (necklift) is an important decision, and we want you to feel confident about it. Here are key considerations:
Healthy non-smoking women typically make excellent candidates for this procedure. If you're experiencing skin laxity around the jowls and neck, loss of facial definition, or a tired appearance, a meloplasty (facelift) can address these concerns effectively. The initial step involves assessing your suitability for the procedure, ensuring you're comfortable with your decision.
The suitability of candidates varies based on their desired outcomes. A comprehensive meloplasty (facelift) and rhytidectomy (neck lift) are typically recommended for women in their 50s to 70s. On the other hand, a mini meloplasty (facelift) is often more suitable for women in their 40s.
