NECK LIFT (PLATYSMAPLASTY) WALNUT CREEK, CA | JOSEPH A. MELE, MD, FACS

UNDERSTANDING NECK AGING AND SKIN CHANGES

Loose neck skin results from multiple factors including aging, genetic
predisposition, sun exposure, and lifestyle choices like smoking. As
skin loses elasticity, wrinkling and sagging become more pronounced,
potentially creating an appearance that does not reflect one's
internal vitality.

NECK LIFT PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

The Neck Lift (Platysmaplasty) procedure addresses multiple aesthetic
concerns through advanced surgical techniques. Dr. Mele can improve:

 	* Redundant neck skin
	* Jowl formation
	* Platysmal muscle bands

SURGICAL TECHNIQUES

Multiple approaches are available depending on individual patient
needs, including skin-only lifts, deep plane techniques, and dual
plane methods. The goal is always to achieve natural-looking
rejuvenation without an over-tightened appearance.

NECK LIFT PROCEDURE DETAILS

Incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring,
typically around the ears and along the hairline. In some cases, a
small submental incision under the chin allows for precise muscle and
fat manipulation.

COMPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES

Many patients combine their Neck Lift with complementary facial
procedures like Brow Lift or Blepharoplasty to achieve comprehensive
facial rejuvenation.

RECOVERY AND FOLLOW-UP

Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can return to normal
activities within a few weeks. Dissolvable sutures and personalized
post-operative care ensure optimal healing and results.

CANDIDACY AND CONSULTATION

An individualized approach is critical. Dr. Mele evaluates each
patient's unique anatomy, skin condition, and aesthetic goals to
recommend the most appropriate neck rejuvenation strategy.
