Multimodal Rejuvenation: The Neck Updates 2025
Description
The presentation discusses multimodal approaches to rejuvenating the neck, with an emphasis on safely treating the common signs of aging such as laxity, volume loss, and pigmentation. The speaker shares insights from personal experiences and recent studies, advocating for early neck evaluations even when patients present for facial treatments. Various non-invasive techniques, including blended injections of deoxycholic acid and lidocaine for fat reduction, are explored, alongside newer technologies like micro ablative lasers, which offer quicker healing with reduced risk of scarring. The speaker highlights the importance of maintaining a youthful neck through preventive care, such as using physical sunblocks and leveraging non-ablative laser therapies. Emphasis is placed on understanding the anatomy of the neck for effective treatment planning, including addressing platysmal bands and preserving the cervical mental angle. The talk concludes by encouraging practitioners to consider incremental, less invasive procedures that can lead to better long-term efficacy compared to traditional surgical methods, prompting a call for greater attentiveness to neck aesthetics in younger patients.
