Patient Journey #11064
Description:
Patient Journey: Deep Plane Neck Lift
Age Range: 25-35
Despite her young age, this patient had long been bothered by the lack of definition along her jawline and neck. Before coming to our practice, she invested significant time and money into nonsurgical treatments, including Kybella and CoolSculpting, hoping they would provide the sculpted profile she was looking for. Unfortunately, despite multiple treatments, she saw little improvement.
During her consultation, we discussed why those treatments had not produced the results she wanted. A detailed anatomical evaluation revealed that her concerns were not caused by excess skin or superficial fat alone. Instead, they stemmed from deeper anatomical structures that cannot be corrected with injectables or energy based devices.
Her treatment plan included:
• Deep Plane Necklift
• Chin Augmentation (Implant)
• Radio Frequency Microneedling
Her transformation highlights the difference between treating symptoms and treating the underlying cause. By addressing the deeper structures of the neck and optimizing chin projection, we were able to achieve the clean, defined profile she had been hoping for all along.
Her journey is a reminder that when nonsurgical treatments fail to deliver the expected result, the treatment itself is not always the problem. Sometimes, it’s the anatomy. Understanding the underlying cause is the key to choosing the right solution and achieving lasting, natural results.
