Extended Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System Flap Rhytidectomy.

This article reviews rhytidectomy approaches and the current methods and practice patterns of the senior author. It includes a discussion of the extended sub-superficial musculoaponeurotic system rhytidectomy technique, which, in the opinion of the senior author, offers the best result with respect to neck rhytids, cervicomental angle and jawline definition, and improvement of jowling. With its ability to be readily coupled with a deep plane dissection, when indicated, this technique becomes indispensable in the facial plastic surgeon's armamentarium.
