15 Neck Rejuvenation: Complications
https://t.me/medicina_free
Trina G. Ebersole, Amer H. Nassar, and Sumner A. Slavin
Abstract
Knowledge of complications in rhytidectomy remains an integral part of the surgical procedure
that all aesthetic plastic surgeons should be aware
of. Complications in facial aesthetics are often challenging for the patient–physician dynamic. This
chapter describes common complications as well as
those that appear more infrequently and provides
evidence-based management that all aesthetic surgeons should be familiar with.
Keywords: facelift, neck lift, complications, management, hematoma, seroma, s kin necrosis
Key Points
●
Perioperative normotension should be maintained, with emphasis on avoidance of postoperative hypertension. Avoid intraoperative
hypotension, as this might lead to unrecognized bleeding that will become evident postoperatively in the form of a hematoma.
●
The most commonly injured sensory nerve during a facelift is the great auricular nerve.
●
The most commonly injured motor nerve is the
buccal branch of the facial nerve.
●
Smoking greatly increases the incidence of skin
flap necrosis. Cessation of all nicotine-containing
products is imperative in the perioperative periods.
15.1 Hematoma
Hematoma is the most common complication following facelift. In nonhyptertensive patients, the
incidence of hematoma is approximately 3%;
however, in males or patients with a history of
hypertension, hematoma rates rise to approximately 8%.
medications is prudent as the risk of hematoma increases in patients taking aspirin or nonsteroidal
anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). There are no
consensus guidelines regarding perioperative discontinuation of anticoagulants and platelet inhibitors. Joint decision-making with the patient and
their primary care physician regarding the safety of
transitioning off certain anticoagulants to proceed
1,2
A proper review of the patient’s home
with an elective surgery may be necessary. Routine
supplements such as ginger, vitamin E, and fish oils
should be discontinued prior to surgery as they
may lead to increased bleeding risk.
3,4
While reviewing that patient’s medications, estrogen management is equally important as it is a known risk
factor for thromboembolism.
5
Combining rhytidectomy with platysmaplasty also increases the risk of
hematoma; strict hemostasis is crucial in preventing this complication.
3
Blood pressure control during the case is key to preventing postoperative
hematoma in facelift surgery. Postoperatively, hypertension can be averted with beta blockade (such
as labetalol) or an alpha agonist (such as cloni-
6
dine).
Adequate analgesia and control of nausea, as
well as strenuous activity restrictions, should be
stressed, as each of these may decrease chances of
developing a postoperative hematoma.

Tranexamic acid (TXA) is a synthetic lysine analog that temporarily prevents plasmin from acting
on fibrin clots to dissolve them as well as blocking
platelet activation.
decrease bleeding during rhytidectomy.
7
TXA has been shown to safely
8,9
There
are several ways to empl oy TXA varying from
topical administration to inf i ltration, and even
intravenously during rhytidectomy. Topical TXA
placed on pledgets o n the undersur face of the
skin flap after completion of flap elevation has
been shown to de crease ecchymoses; however,
this was in a low-powered study.
10
Others have
shown that 1.5 mL of TXA mixed into tumescent
solution infiltration subcutane ously into the face
and n eck prior to inci sion significantly reduces
the operative time.
11
Intravenous TXA (1 g preoperatively, with a second 1-g dose 4 hours later)
has also been shown to significantly reduce postoperative ecchym osis.
12
Hematomas are most likely to occur in the first
24 hours after surgery and should be evacuated
immediately. Earlier surgical management will
prevent postoperative skin necrosis and tissue
3
edema.
In a very select few cases of a small fluid
collection, it is possible to aspirate this and observe, but overwhelmingly, most cases require surgical evacuation, as continued pressure on the skin
and soft tissue will ultimately result in a poor cosmetic outcome with tissue retraction and excess
skin laxity.

15.2 Skin Necrosis
Skin necrosis is more common in subcutaneous
facelifts at a rate of approximate ly 3.6% and further
decreases in the sub-superficial musculoaponeurotic
system (sub-SMAS) techniques to approximately
13
1%.
It is most common in the postauricular sulcus.
Skin necrosis increases with thin flaps or if there is
excess tension on the skin during closure or from a
postoperative hematoma. Skin necrosis is often
managed conservatively with local wound care.
Smoking increases the incidence of skin flap necrosis
by approximate l y 12.5 times.
14
15.3 Infection
Infections after rhytidectomy are uncommon. Preincisional surgical prophylaxis should be routinely
administered and covers for routine skin flora.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa does colonize the otic
canal and can thus lead to infections, which can be
treated by oral fluoroquinolones, but may need
surgical drainage. In rare instances, Mycobacteria
can colonize the wound. Sterile technique should
be maintained throughout the procedure, like with
any other operation.
resulting in numbness to the region of the earlobe
and the inferior pinna. It is imperative to take precaution while elevating the cervical flap from the
sternocleidomastoid to avoid injury to the great
auricular nerve. If it is identified that the nerve
was inadvertently transected intraoperatively, it
should be repaired using microsurgical techniques.
15.5 Recurrent Platysmal Bands
Most commonly, platysmal bands will recur centrally after several years. This may require reoperation or treatment with chemodenervation.
15.6 Dystonia
There is a fine balance between excess tension and
restoring youth. The tension on the resuspended
tissue should allow for some flexibility for natural
movement in the face and neck for activities of
daily living. If it is too tight, this can cause dystonia, difficulty articulating speech, grimacing, pain
with swallowing, and the sensation of tightness.
This can be treated with valium or botulinum toxin
17
if seen.
15.4 Nerve Injury
Regardless of technique, the incidence of nerve injury is reported in approximately 1% of cases, after
either a subcutaneous or a sub-SMAS facelift.
More than likely, these rates are underreported. A
meta-analysis of complication rates in different
rhytidectomy techniques shows a significant increase in temporary nerve injury in composite rh y tidectomy and hi gh lateral SMAS-ectomy as compared
to SMAS plication.
postoperatively are common and can be due to local
anesthetic.
sient neurapraxia of motor branches is seen in 3
months, and thus initial management is observation
and management of patient expectations. The most
commonly injured motor branch of the facial nerve
is the buccal branch. However, this is often clinically
insignificant as there exists rich arborization between various facial nerve branches in this region.
Patients should be offered chemodenervation of the
unaffected side to improve symme try while awaiting
nerve recov ery .
The great auricular nerve is the most common
sensory nerve injured during rhytidectomy, often

15.7 Scars
Thoughtful surgical scar placement is crucial and
contributes to the final aesthetic result of a facelift.
Excess tension or skin resection can lead to wid-
13
ened scars, alopecia, or hypopigmentation. Unfavorable scarring is often seen postauricularly, due
to skin tension, and submentally, due to inadequate approximation of the tissue. This can also
result in alteration of the hairline or the ear. Incisions placed in the hairline should be beveled so as
to allow hair follicles to grow through and conceal
the scar in the future.
a history of hypertrophic scarring or keloids is
important to discern.

A 67-year-old woman who had previously undergone facelift and neck lift 12 years prior was interested in rejuvenation of her neck (▶ Fig. 15.1). She
underwent neck lift and did well without issues at
her first postoperative visit. Eight days later, she
called and reported swelling of her left neck

(▶ Fig. 15.2). She was seen in the clinic, and the
area was fluctuant. Approximately 5 mL of serous,
straw-colored fluid was aspirated from the left
neck. We continued a head wrap and light pressure with gauze in this area. Her postoperative
course was otherwise uncomplicated, and she
healed well. Her postoperative photographs at 3
months are shown in ▶ Fig. 15.3 and ▶ Fig. 15.4.

15.9 Expert Commentary by
Dr. Slavin
Preoperative discussion with the patient is key to
ensuring good results. Showing the patient their
particular anatomy is vital prior to proceeding
with surgery. The submandibular glands and their
relation to the jowl are one of the key anatomical

areas I discuss with my patients preoperatively. It
is also important to take note of the patient’s earlobe preoperatively and discuss this with them in
terms of whether it is hanging or attached. Additionally, a neck with wrinkling around the thyroid
area is a warning sign, as they often get recurrent
puckering in this region, despite adequate treatment during the procedure.
15.10 Expert Commentary by
Dr. Lin
I commend my coeditors on this important chapter.
Personally, I counsel patients on the differences
between medical/surgical complications and “aesthetic” complications. Clearly, the medical/surgical
complication risk relates to conditions that may require additional procedures for scarring or wound
healing or others related to life-threatening conditions such as an expanding neck hematoma. Also,
“aesthetic” complications may also translate to
additional procedures, and these may relate to recurrent jowling, neckbands, and skin contour asymmetries. It is imperative that the patient is informed
of these risks preoperatively on all aspects of neck
lifting. As one progresses in practice, it is key that
one constantly critically evaluates one’s results to
continue improving. Earlier in practice, maintaining
vigilance for prevention of medical/surgical complications then includes developing experience optimizing what one can offer the individual patient in
order to maximize a lasting aesthetic result over
many procedures.
