An aging neck line is the obvious 1st sign of growing older. Dr. Giampapa has developed the Suture Suspension (also known as the “Thread Neck Lift”) procedure, and he has been following the original recipients of the procedure for over ten years. The results have been extraordinary.
The neck lift procedure involves a small incision underneath the chin, through which the skin is undermined and excess fat in the triangle below the chin and jaw line is suctioned with a very thin liposuction cannula. Then, through small incisions inconspicuously placed in the creases behind each ear, a permanent nylon suture is drawn underneath the chin and platysma muscle situated on either side of the neck and an artificial ligament is created.
Once the suture is anchored in place, this muscle is tightened and held in a more youthful position. Additionally, because the technique is performed below the jaw line, the odds of damaging facial nerves, always a risk with a face lift, are much lower.
