Understanding Neck Lift Surgery
Neck lift surgery is a comprehensive procedure designed to correct loose skin, vertical neck bands, and sagging jowls along the jawline. By removing excess fat, tightening underlying muscles, and eliminating loose skin, the procedure creates a more defined and youthful neck and facial profile.
Key Benefits of Neck Lift Surgery
- Removes excess fat deposits in the neck and jawline
- Eliminates "turkey neck" appearance
- Defines and enhances jawline contours
- Corrects vertical muscle banding in the neck
Types of Neck Lift Procedures
Full Neck Lift
A full neck lift involves strategic incisions under the chin and behind the ears. The procedure includes tightening the platysma muscle, removing excess fat, repositioning tissues, and carefully trimming excess skin. Sutures are used to secure the new neck contour.
- Corrects undefined jawline
- Addresses neck bands
- Reduces sagging and wrinkled skin
Liposuction Neck Lift
Ideal for patients with good skin quality and excess fat, this procedure uses small, inconspicuous incisions to suction out fat using a thin cannula. It effectively targets fat along the jawline, neck, and double chin areas.
Neck Lift Procedure Considerations
Patients considering a neck lift should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations. The procedure is most suitable for individuals who have not achieved satisfactory results through non-surgical treatments.
Recovery and Longevity
After surgery, patients can expect bruising and tightness that typically resolves within four to five days. Results are long-lasting when maintaining a healthy lifestyle, with natural aging continuing over time.
Complementary Procedures
Many patients choose to combine neck lift surgery with facelift or brow lift procedures to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
Pre-Surgery Recommendations
- Stop smoking six weeks before surgery
- Avoid anti-inflammatory medications
- Discontinue herbal supplements that may increase bleeding
