What is the newest method for performing a neck lift?

MotherHubbard
Most doctors suggest an incision under the chin and sewing the platysma muscle together. However, one doctor said this is unnatural and does not do that anymore. Instead he tightens the muscle on each side behind the ear and does a little liposuction under the chin. It seems that the more doctors I see the more confused I get. I do not want to feel like I'm choking from having my platysma muscle sewed together too tightly. And I would prefer it not be sewed together at all it it's unnatural.
