A skin-and-muscle platysmaplasty can be considered a neck lift, as its goal is to fight the signs of time by redraping the lax skin and muscles of the neck. While it can be performed on its own to treat very localized neck laxity, it can also be combined with the LVPA facelift technique to achieve a very significant and lasting rejuvenation of the facial oval.

A neck lift (skin-and-muscle platysmaplasty) can be performed on its own for very localized neck laxity.
If neck laxity is accompanied by more general facial tissue laxity, a very significant and natural result can be achieved by combining a neck lift with a facelift, notably the LVPA facelift technique.
