Due to genetics, some patients have fuller necks that don't match the rest of their body. If you are bothered by a "double chin" or heavy appearing neck, a deep plane neck lift might be able to help you with your concerns.

This 34-year-old man is one of those people you just instantly enjoy being around. After trying times he decided to make major changes in his life- he started a daily weight lifting routine and running up to ten miles a day. He was able to loose a lot of weight and feels amazing but the appearance of his neck didn't match his fitness level which made him self conscious. Like many people genetics dealt him a neck he wasn't thrilled with despite being physically fit. Through a small incision in his chin I performed a deep neck lift to sculpt the deep neck fat. I also elevate and tighten the platysma muscle through the chin incision. It has now been 2 weeks since surgery so he still has a lot of swelling and bruising but he can already see the difference and is already getting compliments. He feels more confident throughout the day...which is my favorite outcome!
Our team is so happy we got to play a part in boosting his confidence so he can continue to uplift everyone around him!

This brilliant 42-year-old woman is now 2 months postop from her deep plane neck lift. Like many women, genetics dealt her a heavy neck despite otherwise being thin and fit. Through a small incision in her chin I performed a deep neck lift to sculpt the deep neck fat, and elevate and tighten the platysma muscle. It has only been two months since surgery so she still has swelling but she can already see a big difference. She so happy about the effect this will have on her self-confidence- especially during zoom meetings and when work requires that she be on screen for interviews.

What a big difference! This brilliant 33-year-old woman is thin and healthy but inherited a neck that didn't reflect how she feels. Through a small incision in her chin I performed a deep plane neck lift to sculpt the deep neck structures and elevate and tighten the platysma muscle. To augment her chin I placed a single syringe of filler that I expect to last about two years.
She is 5 months postop and thrilled with the result! I'm happy her neck is one less thing she has to worry about!

This fit 46-year-old woman inherited a neck that doesn't match the way she feels and made her look older and less in shape than she is. Through a small incision in her chin I performed a deep plane neck lift to sculpt the deep neck structures and elevate and tighten the platysma muscle.
It has only been 6 weeks since surgery so she has some residual swelling that will improve with time. Despite this, she is already happy with her result! I'm happy she looks as good as she feels!

This 53-year-old man is 6 weeks postop from deep neck lift, platysmaplasty, neck lipo-sculpting and upper eyelid blepharoplasty. He is extremely fit and has taken great care of himself but inherited a genetically loose neck that makes him look a lot older than he otherwise would.
Through a small incision in his chin I performed a deep plane neck lift to sculpt the deep neck fat, and elevate and tighten his platysma muscle.
Now at 6 weeks, he can finally get back to his beloved biking and running! He is really happy he underwent surgery and I'm so thankful to him for sharing his photos and experience to help others make a good decision for themselves.
