Treatment of the particularly fatty neck and the short-interval secondary facelift

S A Wolfe et al. Aesthetic Plast Surg. 1991 Summer.

Abstract

In patients with normal body weight but with large accumulations of submental and cervical fat, good results can be obtained by an extensive subcutaneous dissection, carefully sculpted removal of the excess fat, and relatively limited work on the platysema. For some patients there may be an indication for a secondary facelift involving skin dissection alone within a relatively short interval.
