The sagging of the neck tissues and the loss of definition of the mandible are among the principal concerns of the man who approaches aesthetic surgery. The case of Francesco, 58 years old, represents perfectly the challenge of the modern surgeon: to obtain a significant aesthetic impact without visible signs of the intervention.
The importance of the cervicomental angle
With the passing of the years, the angle between the neck and the chin tends to “blur” due to gravity and the laxity of the platysma muscle. For Francesco, the objective was to recreate that sharpness that characterizes a vital and masculine face. Through a neck lift intervention, it was possible to reposition the deep structures, eliminating the effect of submandibular heaviness.
Invisible scars: A fundamental requirement
Unlike the woman, the man cannot count on the camouflage of long hair to hide the incisions. For this reason, the technique utilized by Prof. Gualdi foresees a strategic positioning of the scars, rendering them virtually imperceptible already a few days from the intervention.
Natural results and harmony
The philosophy of Prof. Gualdi is based on the Aristotelian principles of equilibrium. In this case, the combination of advanced techniques and an artistic vision of the face has allowed obtaining a fresh and rested result. Often, to maximize these outcomes, the integration of a lipofilling to restore lost volumes or a blepharoplasty in Milan to illuminate the gaze is also evaluated.
