Lower Rhytidectomy (Neck Lift) Avon, CO | Dr. Devinder Mangat

Understanding Neck Lift Surgery

Technically known as a lower rhytidectomy, a neck lift is a surgical procedure designed to correct visible signs of aging appearing on the neck and jawline. This advanced technique addresses aesthetic concerns for patients with a youthful upper face but experiencing neck-related aging symptoms.

Ideal Candidates for Neck Lift

Patients may be excellent neck lift candidates if they demonstrate the following characteristics:

• Excess fat beneath the chin
• Loose neck skin
• Jowls from skin laxity and excess lower facial fat
• Muscle banding creating an aged neck appearance

Neck Lift Procedure Details

Mangat Copit Plastic Surgery performs neck lift surgery under intravenous sedation or general anesthesia. The comprehensive procedure involves strategic incisions, fat redistribution, tissue repositioning, and precise skin redraping to achieve natural-looking results.

Surgical Technique

The traditional neck lift approach includes:

• Incision beginning at the sideburn hairline
• Continuing around the ear
• Ending in the posterior hair region
• Fat redistribution or removal
• Underlying tissue repositioning
• Platysma muscle tightening
• Excess skin trimming

Recovery and Results

Neck lift recovery typically requires approximately one week of home rest. Patients can expect gradual swelling reduction and result refinement over several weeks. Compression bandages and careful post-operative care are essential for optimal healing.

Maintaining Neck Lift Results

While natural aging continues, patients can extend their neck lift results through:

• Healthy lifestyle maintenance
• Consistent sun protection
• Professional skincare recommendations
• Periodic non-surgical treatments
