Abstract

A neck lift after massive weight loss must artistically reduce hanging inelastic skin damage by obesity, starvation, and at times aging. For most, the neck is optimally lifted during a superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) vertical suspension facelift with removal of considerable skin around the ears and scalp. For those refusing a facelift or simply focused on the neck deformity, either bipolar radiofrequency skin shrinkage or submental Z-plasty with platysma suspension and optional nearby liposculpture are offered. The delivery of these therapies is explained with clinical examples. Knowing what you can accomplish and the inherent risks helps you manage patient expectations.
