His approach prioritises patient education, clinical safety, and individualised care, ensuring each person receives appropriate guidance based on their unique surgery goals and anatomy.
Understanding Neck Lift Surgery
A neck lift, or platysmaplasty, is a surgical procedure that aims to modify the appearance of the neck area by targeting loose skin, muscle laxity, and localised fat deposits. It may involve tightening the underlying muscles and removing excess skin to create a smoother neck. The procedure typically addresses the area from the jawline to the collarbone. As individual anatomy and surgical goals vary, a personalised consultation is needed to determine whether a neck lift is suitable.

Neck Liposuction
Neck liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure designed to remove excess fat from the neck and under the chin. This technique may be considered when localised fat deposits are present without significant skin laxity. The procedure involves small incisions and the use of a cannula to gently suction fat from the target areas.
