Neck Rejuvenation: Surgical and Nonsurgical Techniques
A lifetime of facial expression, elastosis, gravitational forces, and tissue atrophy have a significant impact on the appearance of the neck. As such, neck rejuvenation is one of the most commonly performed aesthetic surgical procedures in the world, with more than 160,000 performed in the U.S. alone in 2020. Neck Rejuvenation: Surgical and Nonsurgical Techniques edited by Samuel J. Lin and Sumner A. Slavin reflects many decades of surgical and patient management experience, with contributions from distinguished surgeons across three specialties and many countries.
Successful rejuvenation of the neck and its supporting structures requires in-depth anatomical knowledge, solid comprehension of the aesthetic principles of the neck, mastery of surgical and nonsurgical approaches, and an understanding of patient goals. The book starts with a chapter summarizing major surgically relevant anatomical structures pertinent to rejuvenation of the neck and its supporting tissues. Throughout the subsequent 14 chapters, internationally renowned specialists present a full spectrum of patient-targeted treatments focused on restoring a youthful neck appearance.
