Neck Lift Shreveport, LA | Kenneth Sanders Facial Plastic Surgery

Understanding the Neck Lift Procedure

The neck is often one of the first areas to reveal signs of aging. Factors like gravity, sun damage, and genetic inheritance contribute to neck aging. In the Shreveport and Bossier City area, a neck lift offers a targeted solution for patients seeking to address sagging skin, neck bands, and loss of jawline definition.

Why Consider a Neck Lift?

As we age, skin loses elasticity, and neck muscles weaken. A neck lift can effectively restore a more youthful and refined neck contour by addressing multiple aging concerns simultaneously.

Key Benefits of a Neck Lift

• Tightening loose skin under the chin
• Reducing the appearance of neck bands
• Creating a sculpted and contoured profile
• Smoothing neck and jawline
• Minimizing muscle and skin drooping

Ideal Candidates

Typically, men and women between 40-60 years old are excellent neck lift candidates. The procedure is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing skin laxity, weakened platysma muscles, and stubborn fat deposits in the neck region.

Procedure Overview

A neck lift, medically known as rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to smooth and tighten sagging skin near the neck and jawline. Dr. Sanders will typically use local or general anesthesia, depending on the specific case requirements.

Surgical Approach

The primary goal is to tighten the platysma muscle and remove excess skin. This area is particularly resistant to diet and exercise, making surgical intervention an effective solution for neck rejuvenation.

Recovery and Results

Post-procedure, patients can expect some initial tightness as the skin adjusts to new contours. Prescription medication manages discomfort during the first two days, with over-the-counter pain management sufficient thereafter.
