About Neck Lift Surgery
Dr. George Kouris, a board-certified aesthetic plastic surgeon in Hinsdale, IL, offers specialized neck lift surgery to correct signs of aging in the neckline. This transformative procedure recontours and reshapes the area beneath the chin and along the neck, effectively removing loose skin that creates a "turkey neck" or "double chin" appearance.
Ideal Candidates for Neck Lift
Neck lift treatment is ideal for patients experiencing:
- Visibly loose, hanging skin in the neck region
- Skin deformity caused by weight loss or aging
- Surface lines and wrinkles along the neck
- Desire to improve overall neck and profile aesthetics
Surgical Technique
The neck lift procedure involves strategic surgical techniques to achieve optimal results. Dr. Kouris utilizes local anesthesia with oral sedation or general anesthesia, making carefully placed incisions in natural skin creases. The process may include:
- Incisions around the earlobe and hairline
- Potential additional incision under the chin
- Optional neck liposuction for fat removal
- Skin and tissue tightening with precise suturing
Recovery and Expectations
Patients can expect moderate recovery with initial bruising and swelling subsiding within 7-14 days. Rest and limited activity are recommended for 2-3 weeks. Most patients notice significant improvements almost immediately, with continued refinement as healing progresses.
