Aesthetic surgery of the aging neck: options and techniques.
As the surgeon learns to address the aging changes of the forehead, brows, eyelids and cheeks, the natural progression is to understand aging of the lower one-third of the face and aging of the neck. An understanding of surface anatomy, a review of the underlying anatomical changes of aging and an overview of the palette of procedures applicable to the aging of the neck are presented to introduce the surgeon to this important part of the aging face.
