Platysmaplasty (Neck Rejuvenation Surgery) abroad

 Platysmaplasty is a neck-tightening surgery that restores a firmer, more defined neck and jawline. It works by tightening the platysma - a thin muscle layer that runs from your jaw to the upper chest. With age, this muscle may weaken and separate in the center, causing vertical bands, loose skin, and a loss of clean contour between the chin and neck.

Platysmaplasty is rarely done on its own. It is usually part of a complete facial rejuvenation plan - often combined with a facelift, chin liposuction, or lower face tightening - because sagging rarely affects just the neck. Most clients notice changes across the jawline, neck, and lower face all at once.

Surgery is performed under general anesthesia and usually takes 1 to 2 hours, depending on your anatomy and the techniques used. In some cases, the surgeon works through a small incision under the chin, bringing the platysma muscle together to smooth vertical bands and define the neck angle. In others, incisions are made behind the ears to address sagging more broadly - often in combination with a lower facelift. Many clients benefit from a blend of both methods for a smoother, naturally contoured result.

Most clients recover within 10 to 14 days, with some wearing a soft compression band during the first couple of days. Swelling and tightness ease gradually, and the final result - a smoother, firmer neck and a cleaner jawline - begins to reveal itself after 2 to 3 months, enhancing the harmony of your entire face.

The neck is a delicate, expressive part of the face, and working on it demands both precision and deep expertise.
