Think Nefertiti, Audrey Hepburn, Iman. A beautiful neck has a graceful contour, good definition, and a balanced profile. Neck rejuvenation is about enhancing what nature gave you and repairing what time and age inevitably take away. A skeletal neck will expose any platysmal (the muscles in the front of the neck) irregularities and a prominent submental gland. People with bad necks have deceptively little skin and are managed very efficiently with a short scar facelift. My lifts give a malar lift as well. The other integral part of creating a great neck is the liberal use of a chin implant placed intra-orally. The face loses fat with age, and the chin in particular tends to drop. When the fat pad in front of the chin begins to droop, the chin becomes flat and loses its crease. It becomes difficult to see where the chin ends and the neck begins. This can be corrected with the insertion of a chin implant, as well as liposuction below the chin. When combined with a neck lift to address skin laxity and muscle atrophy, the result is tighter, more defined neck area.

If you are not yet ready for surgery, Botox® injections will help restore some tightness to the area temporarily.
