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.
