What is the 5 Layer Neck Lift?

Central to Dr. Shah’s innovative approach is the understanding that a successful neck lift involves more than just treating the skin or superficial layers; it requires attention to all structural elements influencing the neck’s aesthetics. This comprehensive perspective gave rise to the “5 Layer Neck Lift,” a surgical neck lift method that carefully addresses five specific anatomical layers: the skin, subcutaneous fat, the superficial muscular aponeurotic system, deeper fat layers, and the platysma muscle.

For The 5 Layer Neck Lift

Dr. Shah’s technique involves precise interventions at each layer. By customizing the approach for each patient, he can achieve optimal outcomes tailored to individual anatomical variations and aesthetic goals.

Here are the key aspects:

Skin

Careful removal of excess skin and strategic redraping improve the neck’s contour and texture without over-tightening, ensuring a natural look.

Subcutaneous Fat

Targeted liposuction techniques are used to remove excess fat, enhancing the jawline and neck angle.

Smas & Deep Fat

Adjustments in these layers address deeper structural issues, providing support to the lifted tissues and ensuring longevity of the results.

Platysma Muscle

Specialized techniques to modify the platysma muscle, such as platysmaplasty, correct banding and sagging, contributing significantly to a more youthful neck appearance.
