Treatment philosophy
When evaluating the neck, it is paramount to evaluate all layers including skin, fat and muscle, and to accurately diagnose the pathophysiology, which will lead to the appropriate treatments. It is uncommon that neck rejuvenation can be maximized with one type of treatment. During the consultation, it is important to examine the patient from all angles. When examining the neck, it is important to have the patient bite down and smile, since this will help identify platysmal banding. It is helpful to take photos, and then show the patient. Many times, a patient will not realize the extent of their aged neck since they look at their neck from the frontal view. When developing a plan, it is important to remember that if liposuction is an appropriate treatment for submental fat, then it may unmask platysmal bands which will also need to be treated. It is also important to determine if the patient has a prominent hyoid bone which can create the effect of a less acute cervicomental angle, and standard aesthetic procedures will not be appropriate. It is also important to understand that surgical neck procedures will not improve jowlingโunlike a full facelift. Aesthetic restoration of the neck aims to improve laxity, skin quality, and texture, reduce wrinkling and the appearance of prominent bands, and defines the cervicomental angle formed by the horizontal plane of the submental region and the vertical plane of the neck. Although surgery remains the gold standard and often provides the best outcomes, nonsurgical options are in high demand. Because they target individual aspects of aging, noninvasive or minimally invasive alternatives are frequently used in combination to achieve optimal results.
