Stand-alone neck lift or stand alone lower facelift - Rippling with partial lifting?

9875anon
Is it ever a good idea to perform a stand-alone neck lift or stand alone lower facelift? I have been told that not lifting the whole face causes problems in the draping of the skin, like a ripple or wave that has no where to go. Is this inevitable with these stand-alone procedures or are there techniques that avoid these issues? Many thanks.
