What is "behind ear" muscle tightening of neck?
Answer: What is "behind ear" muscle tightening of neck? This description is like one surgeons twist on the mini face/neck lift. It means to tighten the platysma muscle to help give the jawline and neck more definition. Some people only require incisions behind the ear though in my hands extending the excision onto the front of the ear (still hidden well) makes a big difference in a good way for the lower face and jawline. Hope this helps.Best of luck,DrC

Answer: Neck Lift Thank you for your question. In the laser-assisted weekend necklift, a small incision is made under the chin and behind the ears to tighten the neck for a natural looking result. I suggest that you consult with your board certified facial plastic surgeon.

Answer: Behind the ear neck tightening... There is a lot of terminology thrown around when it comes to facelift surgery. The most important thing is that you are getting the correct procedure to address your specific issues. Typically, when tightening only behind the ear, you are lifting the tissues only laterally, which is not ideal. There should also be a vertical component to your lift to get the most natural result. It's always good to get more than one opinion when considering any type of plastic surgery.

Answer: Facelift and Neck tightening surgery With facelifts and neck lifts, both the skin and muscle are address to rejuvenate. The excess skin is repositioned and removed. The muscle is tightening in the cheek and neck to improve the jawline and neck contour. Additionally, fat may be added or repositioned for facial aesthetics. Similarly in isolated neck lifts, the skin and muscle are repositioned and "tightened".

Answer: Neck lift from behind the ear A lower neck lift with partial tightening can be done with incisions behind the ear, but this will have a very limited effect in my experience on the upper neck, jawline, and the face. Be sure to discuss your goals and concerns with your board certified plastic surgeon and consider the pros and the cons. Be certain your surgeon is properly certified.
