Neck appearance is one of the indicators of a person's biological age. Conventional rhytidoplasty has been the standard treatment for correction of cervical aging. Some patients, especially men, show evident changes in the neck, with excess skin and/or fat in the anterior cervical region, but with little flaccidity of the face. Cervical facelift, combined with zetaplasty, is a surgical option for rhytidoplasty and treats excess skin, fat, and platysma bands. It can be performed under local anesthesia, presenting low morbidity, rapid recovery, and high level of satisfaction.
