| Abstract | ||||
| Background: Numerous techniques have been described for neck lifting aiming at minimal access and limited downtime. This study presents a surgical technique for patients with considerable neck bands avoiding the anterior neck incision. Patients and Methods: Thirteen female patients (mean age 57 years) with considerable platysma laxity underwent suture platysmaplasty during face lift procedures. Through a face lift incision, the platysma was suspended to the ipsilateral mastoid periosteum using permanent suture. The outcome was rated according to a modified visual analogue scale for neck bands and cervicomental angle. Results: Twelve patients achieved satisfactory stable improvement. One case had early recurrence of her platysma bands that required surgical correction. Conclusion: Modified ipsilateral suture suspension platysmaplasty, through the facelift approach can improve platysma bands without the need for additional anterior approach. This modified technique makes the procedure easier and less invasive. Evidence Based Medicine: Level IV, case serie | ||||
