Every patient is unique and requires an individualized approach to surgery to ensure the best results. In this video, Dr. Shah details his groundbreaking 5 Layer Neck Lift procedure, explaining how he approaches male and female neck lifts differently. He also shares what features men typically desire in a neck lift compared to women.
Dr. Shah’s innovative 5 Layer Neck Lift technique meticulously targets five distinct anatomical layers: the skin, subcutaneous fat, the superficial muscular aponeurotic system, deeper fat layers, and the platysma muscle.
Do I do anything differently for men and women when I’m talking about doing a five layer neck? and the difference is, anatomically, both men and women like to have their jawline as defined as possible. In some men, they like their angle really defined and some women, they like the angle somewhat defined, but some like it really defined as well. Most of my men want as much sculpture as possible and definition. Most of my women like soft sculpture. They don’t want these harsh, harsh lines. The other difference between the men and women five layer neck is that sometimes in some men, they’ll want your, their chin to kind of come out. I don’t do it in all men but some men I’ll bring it out a little bit. Most of my women won’t have your chin come up, but some will. So most of the work that’s happening with the five layer neck for both of them underneath, it’s done the same way. it’s just going to be done slightly differently. I’m going to create a slightly softer look for women and more of a, I guess, sharper look for men, but I’ll tailor it to men and women if they want something similar or not for their own gender. Obviously I’ll make it happen.
