Neck Lift in San Antonio: Redefining Elegance

At Baumholtz Plastic Surgery, we specialize in transformative neck lift procedures that restore a sense of timeless elegance. Our approach focuses on addressing the delicate nuances of neck rejuvenation, ensuring a natural and refined result.

Understanding Neck Lift Procedures

A neck lift, or lower rhytidectomy, is a sophisticated surgical technique designed to address age-related changes in the neck and jawline. This procedure targets multiple aspects of neck aging, including:

• Excess skin removal
• Muscle tissue tightening
• Fat repositioning
• Contour refinement

Types of Neck Lift Techniques

Direct Neck Lift

The direct neck lift focuses on skin tightening and is ideal for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity. This less invasive approach provides targeted improvements with a quicker recovery period.

Deep Plane Neck Lift

A more comprehensive technique that addresses deeper tissue layers, the deep plane neck lift offers more profound rejuvenation for patients with significant muscle and skin sagging.

Benefits of Neck Lift Surgery

• Enhanced neck contour and definition
• Elimination of visible neck bands
• Redefined jawline
• Natural-looking aesthetic improvement
• Renewed self-confidence

Ideal Candidates for Neck Lift

Candidates typically experience signs of aging such as sagging skin, visible neck bands, or loss of jawline definition. A personalized consultation with Dr. Baumholtz helps determine the most appropriate approach for individual aesthetic goals.

Procedure Overview

The neck lift procedure is performed under anesthesia, with strategic incisions placed to minimize visible scarring. Dr. Baumholtz meticulously removes excess skin, tightens underlying muscles, and reshapes the neck's contour to achieve a harmonious, youthful appearance.

Recovery and Results

Recovery varies by individual but generally involves initial swelling and bruising. Most patients resume light activities within a week, with full results gradually emerging over several weeks. Follow-up appointments ensure optimal healing and satisfaction.
