Before & After
Case Details
This patient, 52, underwent an Extended SMAS S-Lift combined with a deep plane neck lift with liposuction performed by Cody Koch, MD, PhD.
In the after photo, the jawline appears more defined, the neck contour is more distinct, and the overall lower face profile has a sharper, more structured appearance.
She is pleased with her results done by Dr. Koch, writing: "Great, very natural and quick healing process."
For those considering a facelift in West Des Moines & Ames, this case illustrates the degree of change that can be visible in the lower face and neck following these procedures. At 52, this patient's results reflect the type of facial rejuvenation that lifting and repositioning of deeper facial structures, combined with neck liposuction, can produce.
Dr. Koch performed both the Extended SMAS S-Lift and the deep plane neck lift with liposuction as a combined procedure. The SMAS, or superficial musculoaponeurotic system, is a layer of tissue beneath the skin that is addressed in this type of facelift. The deep plane neck lift works at a similar level in the neck. Liposuction was included to address fullness in the neck area.
