Abstract
BACKGROUND: A multimodal approach is essential for neck rejuvenation because many factors contribute to the aging of the neck. OBJECTIVES: We evaluated the effect of combined therapy using microfocused ultrasound with visualization (MFU-V), neuromodulator injection, and filler injection for neck rejuvenation. METHODS: Subjects were sequentially treated with three kinds of interventions in a single session, as follows: (A) MFU-V or calcium hydroxyapatite injection for restoring skin laxity; (B) hyaluronic acid filler injection for horizontal neck lines; and (C) neuromodulator injection for platysmal bands. RESULTS: All ten patients showed clinical improvement of neck aging after combined treatment. Patients with more aged neck at baseline were more likely to show greater improvement after treatment. CONCLUSION: Neck rejuvenation using multimodal approach is effective in Asians.
