58.9 Special Considerations

58.9.1 Submandibular Gland Exposure

In some cases, the submandibular gland is ptotic or slightly displaced inferiorly from its anatomic position. Excessive liposuction can aggravate this situation and make the submandibular glands more prominent. In addition, they may then be mistaken for further fat deposits and be injured. Patients must be warned about this prior to surgery.

Correction of submandibular gland ptosis is difficult and many of the described procedures fail. Removal of the glands is unnecessary and can lead to further problems.

58.9.2 Platysmal Band Exposure

Anterior platysmal bands may exist in conjunction with neck and submental fat. Liposuction of the neck can highlight this deformity (Fig. 58.5). Attention must be given to the muscles either simultaneously or on a separate occasion. Many techniques have been described for treating platysmal bands.

58.9.3 Thyroid Thickness or Band

During the course of my practice, I\the author has come across several cases of a distinct band overlying

the thyroid (Fig. 58.6). This band appears to be a thicker layer of adipose tissue which is harder to aspirate. Occasionally an extraincision is required to directly approach this area.
