Face Case #1690

Many young women are surprised to discover that fullness beneath the chin can develop even at an early age, often despite a healthy, active lifestyle. This patient, at just 25, came to my office looking for a more defined neck and jawline. She hoped to address deeper fullness under the neck muscle that exercise and diet couldn’t change.  She told me that many people in her family had a similar neck shape.

I recommended a Mini Neck Lift (Single Incision) in New York, customized for her needs. During surgery, I performed a deep neck lift, reduced the submandibular glands, tightened and reduced the digastric muscle, performed a platysmaplasty, and used liposuction to improve the contour around her jaw. This careful approach allowed me to reshape her profile, providing a more balanced and youthful appearance.

Her recovery proceeded smoothly. She quickly returned to her regular activities and noticed an improved gonial angle and neck contour within weeks. The single incision technique meant a minimal scar and natural-looking results that fit her lifestyle.

Helping patients reach their goals with a Mini Neck Lift (Single Incision) in New York brings me great satisfaction. I focus on safe, individualized care, drawing on experience and continuous learning. Working together, my goal is always to help each patient feel comfortable and confident in their own skin.
