Advanced Neck Lift in Sacramento, CA | Dr. Scott D. Green

Understanding Neck Lift Surgery

Neck lift surgery is a sophisticated cosmetic procedure designed to address various aesthetic concerns related to neck appearance. Patients seek this treatment for multiple reasons, including age-related skin laxity, post-weight loss skin excess, and genetic predispositions to neck fullness or sagging.

Who Benefits from a Neck Lift?

Ideal candidates for neck lift surgery include individuals experiencing:

• Excess skin or fat deposits around the neck
• Visible neck banding or muscle separation
• Loss of neck definition
• Premature aging signs in the neck area

Neck Lift Surgical Techniques

Dr. Scott D. Green performs neck lift surgery using two primary techniques: cervicoplasty and platysmaplasty. The procedure typically takes 2-3 hours and involves precise skin and muscle modifications to create a smoother, more refined neck contour.

Surgical Procedure Details

During a neck lift, Dr. Green makes strategic incisions either behind or under the ears and potentially a small incision beneath the chin. This approach allows for precise skin removal, muscle adjustment, and comprehensive neck rejuvenation.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect initial results within one week, with full neck lift outcomes becoming apparent after six months. The procedure typically provides aesthetic improvements lasting approximately ten years, depending on individual aging processes and lifestyle factors.
