Neck Lift Before & After Case 12211

This patient chose to undergo a SMAS Facelift in Denver and Colorado Springs to address concerns about facial aging. Her main goals included tightening the neck and jawline and reducing wrinkles across her face. She had noticed laxity along the jaw and prominent lines that did not improve with non-surgical treatments. After meeting with Steven D. Vath, M.D., she discussed her expectations and the procedure option best suited to her needs.

During surgery, Dr. Vath performed a SMASectomy with plication, a technique designed to reposition and reinforce the deeper layers of facial support. This approach can help provide a more defined jawline and smoother neck, which were key motivating factors for the patient. The recovery process was easy, with no bruising and minimal swelling that was gone after one week.

As shown in the photos above, the patient achieved a more contoured neck and jawline with a noticeable reduction in facial wrinkles. She expressed satisfaction with the natural appearance of her results and felt more confident in her daily interactions.

Steven D. Vath, M.D., board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, brings advanced training and experience to every procedure. He is committed to natural-looking results and clear patient communication, helping individuals in Denver and Colorado Springs make informed choices about SMAS Facelift and other facial procedures.
