PROCEDURE
Deep Plane Neck Lift
Ageing is an inevitable process that brings with it visual changes to our appearance, particularly affecting areas like the neck and jawline and creating wrinkles, jowls, fine lines, and nasolabial folds.
Creases, sagging skin, and diminished definition in these areas can certainly impact one’s self-esteem and overall aesthetic appeal. However, advances in aesthetic medicine, such as a deep plane neck lift, propose a remarkable solution to reverse the evident signs of ageing, helping restore youthful contours.
The deep plane neck lift procedure in London offers a distinguished approach compared to traditional neck lifts. While a standard neck lift mainly focuses on eliminating excess skin and fat around your jawline, aiming to minimise ageing signs in the lower facial region, a deep plane neck lift goes a step further.
A deep plane neck lift is a specialised surgical intervention aimed at enhancing the contours of the neck. It involves the careful sculpting of fat situated beneath the platysma muscle, combined sometimes with the removal of the submandibular glands or muscle which can add to the fullness of the neck with age. The outcome is a notably more defined and sculpted neckline. This procedure, by addressing both the surface and deeper layers of the neck, ensures thorough and long-lasting improvements.
There are certain instances whereby a deep plane neck lift is the favourable procedure. For example, for younger patients, under 40, who face issues with genetically heavier necks without significant saggy skin, this procedure can be aptly suited. Likewise, patients over 40, who experience loose or sagging skin alongside a desire to reshape the neck contours, might find the most beneficial outcome from a combination of a deep plane facelift and neck lift.
