Upon checking during the operation, it was determined that in the first surgery, the SMAS had been sewn together and the platysma muscle in the neck had been severed and pulled.
In such cases, revision surgery can often be performed using the same approach as the initial procedure.
However, depending on the extent of the previous surgery and the condition of the scar, the surgical procedure may need to be adjusted.
When performing revision surgery, it is important to carefully assess the degree of adhesion in the subcutaneous tissue and SMAS layer and lift them as far as possible.
