SMAS Facelift Before & After Case 12201

This patient sought facial rejuvenation to address visible signs of aging, particularly a loose neck and softening of the jawline. She was primarily concerned about sagging tissue and wanted to restore a more defined, youthful contour without an over-corrected appearance. After an in-depth consultation and careful evaluation, a SMAS facelift was recommended to achieve her goals.

Her experience involved a SMASectomy with plication—an advanced technique that targets both the skin and underlying muscular structure to provide durable and natural-looking results. Recovery was smooth, and she was able to return to normal activities within a reasonable timeframe. The photos above show her neck and jawline looking firmer and more refined, with improvement in definition and a subtle, refreshed facial appearance.
