title: A progressive approach to neck rejuvenation.
abstract: The progressive approach to neck and facial rejuvenation is a comprehensive method for evaluation and correction of common aging changes seen in the lower face and neck. The surgical results are natural in appearance, as the rejuvenation method chosen is specifically and continuously adjusted for optimal results throughout the evaluation and surgical process. The increased burden on the surgeon to master a variety of techniques and to develop the judgment needed to decide in a progressive manner which is the most appropriate for use in each patient is more than compensated for by improved results and greater patient satisfaction.
