Adequate aesthetic contouring of the aging neck often presents a difficult surgical challenge to the facial plastic surgeon. The apparent failure of the classic rhytidectomy to achieve acceptable results in the submental region has encouraged previous surgeons to develop surgical techniques specifically addressing this area. Definitive procedures were developed to treat the excess skin, fat, or muscle. Aesthetic results have progressively improved with the introduction of liposuction, judicious muscle rearrangement, and more conservative submental skin violation. This article describes our experience with these concepts and presents a useful classification devised to serve as an operative guide in the management of the aging neck.
对面部整形外科医生而言，为衰老的颈部塑造出足够美观的轮廓往往是一项颇具难度的外科挑战。经典除皱术在颏下区域未能取得令人满意的效果，这促使以往的外科医生研发专门针对该区域的手术技术。人们开发出了根治性手术来处理多余的皮肤、脂肪或肌肉。随着抽脂术、合理的肌肉重新排列以及更保守的颏下皮肤处理方法的引入，美学效果逐步得到改善。本文介绍了我们在这些理念方面的经验，并提出了一种实用的分类方法，旨在为衰老颈部的治疗提供手术指导。
