Light-Guided Percutaneous Neck Rejuvenation With Division of Platysma Bands and Suture Suspension: A Multicenter Retrospective Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Traditional invasive suture suspension techniques have proven efficacy and durability. A previously described percutaneous placement of a neck suspension suture with light guidance has transformed this into a minimally invasive technique. This novel technique provides a major advance for minimally invasive neck rejuvenation.

Objectives

The authors sought to describe their experience with light-guided percutaneous neck rejuvenation over the past 4.5 years, including technique, patient selection, safety profile, and expected outcomes.

Methods
