Neck Lift Greenwood Village, CO | Belcerna Plastic Surgery

Understanding Neck Lift Procedures

A neck lift, medically known as lower rhytidectomy, is a sophisticated cosmetic surgical procedure designed to tighten neck skin and underlying muscles, dramatically improving neck contours and reducing visible signs of aging.

Causes of Neck Sagging

Multiple factors contribute to neck skin laxity, including:

• Natural collagen and elastin reduction with age
• Prolonged sun exposure
• Significant weight fluctuations
• Genetic predisposition

Ideal Candidates for Neck Lift Surgery

Belcerna Plastic Surgery recommends neck lift procedures for individuals who:

• Are between 30-70 years old
• Have minimal to moderate excess neck skin
• Maintain good overall health
• Have realistic aesthetic expectations

Neck Lift Procedure Details

Belcerna Plastic Surgery offers comprehensive neck lift techniques tailored to individual patient needs. The procedure typically involves strategic incisions, muscle tightening, and excess skin removal to restore a more youthful neck profile.

Surgical Techniques

• Traditional Neck Lift (Cervicoplasty)
• Muscle Tightening (Platysmaplasty)
• Complementary Procedures: Liposuction, Chin Implants

Recovery and Expectations

Recovery typically requires 10-14 days, with gradual return to normal activities. Patients can expect some initial swelling and discomfort, which diminishes as healing progresses.

Long-Term Results

Neck lift results can last 10-15 years, though individual aging processes vary. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and skincare routine can help prolong surgical outcomes.

Potential Risks and Considerations

While generally safe, neck lift surgery carries potential risks including temporary numbness, infection, and healing complications. Selecting a board-certified plastic surgeon minimizes these risks.
