Where surgical precision meets aesthetic artistry. Dr. Leonard practices a refined craft, perfected through experience, mastery, and an uncompromising eye for natural balance.
A neck lift refines the jaw–neck line by tightening the underlying platysma muscle, reducing banding and excess fullness, and redraping the skin to create a smooth, natural contour. Dr. Leonard, a German board-certified plastic surgeon in Dubai, plans each procedure with millimetre-level precision, carefully assessing skin quality, fat distribution, platysma tone, and the relationship between the chin, jaw, and neck. Depending on individual anatomy, the surgical plan may include submental contouring, targeted liposuction, and platysma repair to restore a clean, crisp angle from jaw to neck without an over-pulled appearance. The procedure can sharpen the jaw–neck line, smooth neck contours, refine the under-chin area, improve side-profile definition, and rebalance the lower face while maintaining natural expression. Ideal candidates are those with loose neck skin, platysmal banding, persistent submental fullness, or jawline blurring due to ageing or weight change, who seek a durable, elegant improvement rather than repeated non-surgical treatments. When performed thoughtfully, a neck lift delivers long-lasting, natural-looking refinement that enhances confidence in clothing, hairstyles, and everyday appearance.
Dr. Leonard approaches neck and jawline rejuvenation with a comprehensive, three-dimensional strategy rather than simple skin tightening. During planning, he carefully evaluates the cervicomental angle, platysma band strength, fat distribution above and below the platysma, overall skin quality, and the balance between the chin and jawline. This proportion-led analysis guides the choice of technique, vectors, and degree of correction to achieve results that appear refined and natural—both in still photographs and in everyday movement and expression. Rather than pursuing a single aggressive correction, Dr. Leonard often recommends staged, precisely sequenced refinements tailored to each patient’s anatomy and lifestyle. These may include submental contouring to address under-chin fullness, platysma repair to restore structural support and reduce banding, and conservative skin redraping for a smooth, uninterrupted contour. When appropriate, chin augmentation or micro-fat grafting can further enhance profile definition, while skin-quality treatments help improve texture and tone. Together, this integrated approach produces a balanced, durable, and natural-looking jaw–neck line that blends seamlessly with the rest of the face—without drawing attention to the surgery itself.
