A neck lift is not simply about removing loose skin. The appearance of the neck can be influenced by skin, fat, platysma, muscles, and deeper structures. For appropriately selected patients, addressing deeper anatomy may be important for achieving a defined, balanced neck. The appropriate approach depends on each patient's anatomy, facial proportions, degree of aging, goals, and medical history. FACELIFT VS. NECK LIFT Some patients may benefit from an isolated neck lift, while others may achieve more balanced facial rejuvenation with a facelift and neck lift. The decision depends on the individual pattern of facial and neck aging. NATURAL-LOOKING FACIAL REJUVENATION The goal is not simply to make someone look "lifted." Natural results require attention to anatomy, proportion, tissue preservation, contour, and movement. ABOUT DR.
