She now feels more youthful with a natural unoperated appearance
Female Repeat Neck Liposuction, Platysmaplasty, and Deep Plane Facelift
Massive weight loss is more common today with the advent of GLP-1’s and bariatric procedures. Rapid weight loss like this can lead to unwanted loose skin. Dr. Funk saw this patient in consultation for a repeat face and neck lift. This patient had neck liposuction and a previous facelift with another surgeon several years ago and was not happy with the results. In addition, she had significant weight loss leading to even more loose skin in her neck and face.
Dr. Funk’s Approach & Results
Dr. Funk examined her face and neck and previous facelift scars. He felt she had a heavy neck with thick tissues and did not feel that her previous facelift was sufficient to achieve the results she desired. Dr. Funk recommended repeat neck liposuction along with a platysmaplasty tightening the muscle in her neck. In addition, she would need a deep plane facelift, releasing the ligamentous attachments under the muscle to create a more impressive and longer lasting lift for her.
Surgery was uneventful and she felt socially acceptable after about 3 weeks with her hair down and makeup. Final results took 3-6 months for scars to mature and irregularities to settle. She now feels more youthful with a natural unoperated appearance.
