To continue with details on why the neck skin is not just pulled up under the ears and surgically attatched. When I gently pull the skin under my jaw bone, toward my ear just a little bit, the loose skin tightens up nicely. The wrinkles go away! Would it not be easy to do this surgically too, bring that skin back to under the ear and perminently attach it there with staples or sutures?
Answer: Simple facelift If you try to duplicate what describe surgically, the skin will drop be tailored properly. There will be areas of puckering and gathering that will look terrible. You need the cheek and neck lifted as one large unit in order for it to red tape properly and look natural.

Answer: Facelifts are customized to individual need Every person has slightly different effects of aging and so facelifts are adjusted to individual needs. Sometimes this is a relatively simple procedure involving mostly skin but usually aging is more than a little sagging skin. For example, the "turkey wattles" are related to a muscle called the platysma under the skin in the neck; so even though tugging on the skin makes them appear to go away, they won't disappear with only a surgical skin tuck. There was an idea around a few years ago called the threadlift which basically did what you describe, only the results were temporary.

Answer: Facial aging is due to more than just loose skin. without a picture it's hard to comment but there is a misconception that facelifts exclusively remove only excess skin. Facelifts also move around structures that provide a more youthful volume to the face.

Answer: A facelift is more than a skin lift Many thanks for posing your question - it is one that I am often asked during facial rejuvenation consultations.Whilst on the outside, sagging and loosening appears to be a skin problem, it is actually the deeper tissues (the SMAS and platysma) that are the problem. These are the soft tissue framework of the face and neck, which loosen and descend with age, dragging the skin with them.Therefore, modern facelift techniques aim to reposition the SMAS where it used to be, followed by gentle redraping of the skin, to achieve the best scars possible, and the most natural post-operative appearance.Simply pulling the skin tight and cutting off the excess leads to a wind tunnel look, with unsightly scars and a short-lived results as the skin gradually stretches again.I hope that explains things for you.
