MyEllevate is a procedure that involves placing fine support threads beneath the skin around the jawline and neck. It uses a light-guided suture system to support the underlying tissue structure.
In some cases, MyEllevate may be carried out together with other procedures such as liposuction or radiofrequency (RF) treatment. The approach taken depends on individual assessment and clinical planning.
Recovery and aftercare vary for each patient. Information about the procedure, suitability, and post-treatment expectations can be discussed during a consultation.
Concerns That May Be Addressed
MyEllevate may be part of a treatment plan for concerns involving the lower face, jawline, or neck area. These may include:
- Changes in the area under the chin or along the jawline
- Differences in shape between the sides of the face
- Changes in the skin on the lower face or neck
- Fine lines on the neck
Before any procedure, an assessment is completed to check whether MyEllevate is suitable for you. Your treatment plan will be based on your individual needs and the clinical assessment.
Your Consultation with Dr Peter Laniewski
To find out whether you are suitable for a MyEllevate treatment, you can arrange a consultation with Dr Peter Laniewski. During your consultation, Dr Laniewski will review your medical history, previous treatments, and any medications or supplements you are taking. These details help determine whether this treatment is appropriate for you.
If the treatment is considered suitable, a personalised plan will be discussed to outline what is involved. The consultation is also a good opportunity to ask questions or raise any concerns you may have. Dr Laniewski and the team will provide information and guidance to help you make an informed decision about your options.
Procedure
On the day of the MyEllevate treatment, the area will be prepared to support comfort during the procedure. Once the area is ready, small entry points are used to guide a specialised device beneath the skin. Fine sutures are placed to support the underlying structures in the neck area.
The approach and time required can vary between patients. In some cases, the treatment may be performed alongside other procedures such as liposuction or radiofrequency treatments, depending on individual needs and goals.
Your treatment plan will be discussed in advance, including what to expect before, during, and after the procedure.
Cost of MyEllevate Treatments
The cost of a MyEllevate treatment will vary for each patient, as the procedure is tailored to individual needs and facial characteristics. The total cost will be discussed during your consultation once a treatment plan has been outlined.
Before proceeding, it is important to have a consultation to understand what the treatment involves and to discuss your goals and expectations. A personalised plan will be prepared based on your assessment.
MyEllevate is considered an elective cosmetic procedure and is not covered by Medicare. For more information about the costs involved or to arrange a consultation, please contact our team.

They are intended to offer an illustration of the potential outcomes that can be achieved through plastic and cosmetic surgery. However, it’s important to understand that individual results may vary, and the results of any surgical procedure cannot be guaranteed. The photos are not intended to serve as promises or a guarantee of specific results, but rather as a visual aid to help envision what is possible. It is crucial to recognise that each person is unique, and the outcome of surgery will be influenced by various factors such as overall health, body type, and healing ability. During your consultation, Dr Laniewski will carefully evaluate each individual and provide an honest and realistic assessment of what can be expected from the procedure.
Results and Aftercare
After the procedure, recovery time varies for each patient and depends on factors such as the individual healing response, the treatment area, and how well aftercare instructions are followed. A chin strap or supportive collar may be recommended as part of the aftercare plan.
It is important to keep the treated area clean and dry to support healing. Patients may also be advised to avoid strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for a period to reduce strain and swelling.
Detailed aftercare instructions will be provided following the procedure to guide patients through recovery and assist with proper care of the treated area.
Risks and Complications
All procedures carry some level of risk, and these will be discussed in detail during your consultation before the procedure.
After treatment, patients may notice effects such as swelling or bruising in the treated area. These are common signs of the body’s healing process and usually lessen as recovery continues. Patients will receive clear aftercare instructions and information on how to manage any side effects.
