“…The technique was primarily developed to suspend the sustainable tissues, such as the malar fat pad and/or platysma, with or without open surgical approaches. [1][2][3][4] Various types of threads with special designs have recently been invented to attain more reliable and sustained effects or enable minimally-invasive access to the implant. [5][6][7][8] Among the most frequently-utilized materials are cog-type-or barbed-threads (eg, APTOS, Kolster Methods Inc., Corona, California), which have short "wings" projecting from the thread stalk and extending throughout the thread.…”

“…The suture suspension technique was firstly described by Guerrero-santos et al in 1974 10 for lifting the neck region by suspending the platysma, and used mainly for esthetic surgery due to its minimal invasiveness and safety. Similar methods followed for lifting other ptotic lesions.…”

For a treatment of facial paralysis, suture suspension of soft tissue is considered effective due to its less invasiveness and relatively simple technique, with minimal bruising and rapid recovery. However, suture suspension effect may not last for a long period of time. We obtained good outcome with temporary static suture suspension in 5 cases of severe facial paralysis in the intervening period between the onset of paralysis and expected spontaneous recovery. We used the S-S Cable Suture (Medical U&A, Tokyo, Japan), which was based on the modification of previously established method using the Gore-Tex cable suture originally reported by Sasaki et al in 2002. Because of the ease of technique and relatively strong lifting capability of the malar pad, we recommend it as a useful procedure for a patient suffering acute facial paralysis with possible spontaneous recovery for an improved quality of life by the quick elimination of facial distortion.

“…In face and neck lift surgeries, tightening the platysma muscle directly or by means of neck suspension surgeries, or rarely by direct gland excision, are the only methods to create a clean submandibular line. A marginal mandibular motor nerve branch runs over this area 12–14 …”

The popularity of submental suctioning, platysmaplasty neck lifts, and now Botulinum A exotoxin injections into the neck has increased dramatically. A detailed working knowledge of clinical platysma and lip depressor muscle anatomy is of paramount importance to successfully anesthetize and block the treated areas, to avoid injury to important vessels, nerves, and deeper cervical structures, and to optimally treat the problem areas. A simple, user-friendly knowledge can be obtained by remembering simple mnemonics relating to (1) specific target areas, (2) anatomic relationships, and (3) topographic clinical landmarks.
