Platysmaplsty is a key part of the neck lift and critical for producing an ideal chin-neck angle. Not all surgeons perform this step during a neck lift as it is more time consuming and technically more difficult
A Platysmaplasty is the medical term for the cosmetic procedure called a neck lift . The surgery consists of tightening the neck muscles both in the midline and the posterior neck, and correcting the sagging loose skin as well. The procedure has very rewarding results and is a relatively easy surgery to go through. Consult a board certified facial plastic or plastic surgeon to see if you would be a candidate.
I prefer the newer technique of the sub-platysmaplasty. Rather than just tightening the muscles this technique actually lifts and moves the muscle sheet to the center. This allows them to sewn with minimal tension. It appears that this gives a longer lasting and more complete rejuvenation of the neck
Hi, I have performed many SMAS facelifts and neck lifts for over 30 years. Platysmaplasty is the plication or tightening of the platysma muscle in the neck. This is sometimes referred to as a neck "corset" procedure. It is typically part of a "formal" neck lift which often requires a lower face lift (for the reasons discussed below). While, in theory the corset-platsymaplasty can be carried out alone...this can "only" be done when no "jowls" exist in the lower face. This procedure is referred to as a "formal" neck lift and is performed using a curved incision under the chin along with incisions behind the ear that extend several inches into the posterior hairline. The muscle is tighten, in the midline, using multiple layers of suture and then along either side of the neck. The loose skin/scalp is lifted up and back at a 45 degree angle. If jowls are present, this action causes skin pleats just beneath the ear lobes. This is why neck lifts and facelifts are performed together. To avoid the pleats, a lower facelift is performed. In person consultations with experienced, expert facelift surgeon would allow this process to be clearly demonstrated. Hope this helps.
Platysmalplasty is the correction of the banding cords in your neck. A small incision is made under your chin then the cords are pulled together and sutured.
A Neck Lift is performed to significantly reduce the appearance of sagging skin under the jaw. At my practice in New York, there are various procedures that can comprise a full neck lift surgery, including neck liposuction, cervicoplasty and platysmaplasty. Platysmaplasty is the removal or tightening neck muscles, which gets rid of the appearance of unwanted band lines of the neck. The neck rejuvenation procedure for platysmaplasty is an endoscopic surgery through a small incision placed underneath the chin may be used to tighten the neck muscles if you do not have excessive skin.
The platsymaplasty is part of a neck lift or also a facelift and it tightens the muscles in the front of the neck and imropves the depth and angularity of the neck.
"A combination approach would give the most improvement. Nonsurgical options such as Kybella, PDO NovaThreads, and Ultherapy do well in combination for skin tightening, but the results are mild compared to surgical options. I would recommend a VASER Hi-Definition Liposuction with ThermiRF,...
There may be a few options for webbed neck correction. Your condition should be evaluated to determine what would work best for you. There is a surgical procedure called Z-plasty that might be helpful in your case.
"For a double chin, InMode FaceTite with VASERlipo would give you the best result. With significant neck sagging you would need a facelift / neck lift with muscle tightening (platysmaplasty). At the same time, I would recommend lasers (Fraxel, CO2, Halo, or Erbium) and microneedling RF...
