Neck Lift San Mateo, CA | Koch Facial Plastic Surgery: R. James Koch, M.D.

Understanding Neck Lift Procedures

Aging naturally affects neck skin and contours through gravity and reduced skin elasticity. Koch Facial Plastic Surgery specializes in advanced, less invasive neck lift procedures designed to refresh and restore natural neck appearance without extensive surgery.

Customized Neck Lift Treatment Options

Dr. Koch offers personalized neck lift treatments tailored to individual patient needs. Potential procedures include:

• Neck fat removal via liposuction
• Ultrasound-assisted liposuction (VASER®)
• Direct loose skin removal (submentoplasty)
• Platysmal band reduction (platysmaplasty)

In-Office Procedure Advantages

Performed in the on-site procedure room under "twilight" conscious sedation, these treatments provide Gold Standard results with reduced risks and recovery time compared to traditional surgical approaches.

Neck Lift Procedure Details

The procedure involves strategic fat removal and contouring through small, strategically placed incisions. A small cannula sculpts excess fat to enhance natural neck and chin contours, often resulting in improved skin tightness.

Recovery and Results

Recovery typically involves wearing a neck support strap for one week. Patients can usually return to light activities within days and experience minimal bruising and swelling. Results progressively improve as healing occurs.

Procedure Limitations

Neck lifts primarily address upper neck concerns and may not fully resolve lower neck, jowl, or jawline issues. Dr. Koch provides comprehensive consultations to determine the most appropriate treatment strategy.
