FACELIFT & NECKLIFT
BEFORE AND AFTER PHOTOS – PATIENT 19
Facelift, Neck Lift & Corset Platysmaplasty
This 57 year old patient presented to Dr. Siamak Agha for a Facelift and Neck Lift. The patient was unhappy with her facial aging and wanted a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance.
Upon examination, Dr. Agha noted that the patient had prominent nasolabial folds and a moderate degree of jowling. The patient also had a moderate degree of neck tissue and skin laxity and visible platasymal bands, or the two strips of muscle that appear under the chin with aging.
To address the patient’s facial aging, he performed a Face and Neck Lift. Dr. Agha began the procedure by creating a small incision under the patient’s chin to perform a Corset Platysmaplasty. Through this incision, the patient’s neck muscles and bands were tightened, creating a smoother neck contour and reducing the appearance of her neck bands. Then, Dr. Agha made incisions along the patient’s sideburns, extending into the natural creases of the patient’s ears. Through these incisions, Dr. Agha performed a Faceliftt, pulling the patient’s facial muscles upwards to lift and tighten them. Then, the skin was pulled smooth over the repositioned muscles.
Through the same incisions, a Necklift was performed. The remainder of the patient’s neck laxity was corrected, and in combination with the Corset Platysmaplasty, the patient had tightening of her neck in the front and back, creating a crisper jawline and more defined neck contour. To finish the patient’s facial rejuvenation procedure, a chemical peel was applied to refresh her skin and promote growth of new collagen.
After the patient’s procedure, her face and neck looked much more youthful and uplifted. The patient’s Facelift before and after photos were taken 6 months after her procedure.
