Abstract

Modern approaches to the neck involve different concepts including distributed tension, platysmal manipulation, and varying degrees of interventions to the deep neck space. The benefit of a deep plane approach lies in the ability to release tension in the neck and face. Once the platysma has been released from the components of the deep neck space and surrounding tethering points, it can be repositioned and redraped in a tension-free manner. Aside from lifting, one must realize the importance of restoring the deep space compartments internally. This provides improved contour restoration as well as a tension-free excision of any excess skin, which consequently helps avoid earlobe-related complications, widened scars, and an odd or pulled look. The deep plane is a more logical and natural approach to lifting of the face and neck, lifting along the natural anatomical glide planes.
