Abstract
The neck has always been one of the most difficult areas to manage in rejuvenation
surgery. Even patients with adequate results after a facelift may be dissatisfied
because of the appearance of the neck. Moreover, not all neck problems are the same
in all patients. Some cases only require fat removal to obtain good results, whereas
others require complete neck- and facelift to achieve the desired results. This article
offers a detailed step-by-step description of the approach to aesthetic pathologies
of the neck, tailored to the needs of each individual patient. The article also includes
a discussion of topics such as double chin liposuction, platysma plication, corset
platysmaplasty, platysmal suspension to the mastoid, mentoplasty, and neck- and facelift.
