Neck Lift in Englewood Cliffs, NJ | Cross Hudson Plastic Surgery

Understanding Neck Aging and Surgical Solutions

The neck is often the first area that reveals signs of aging, characterized by submental fat accumulation, skin laxity, and horizontal creases. Instead of concealing these changes, surgical neck lift procedures can effectively reverse aging symptoms and restore a more youthful appearance.

Key Neck Aging Characteristics

• Submental fat forming underneath the jawline
• Loose, sagging skin ("turkey neck")
• Horizontal neck banding
• Isolated fat deposits

Genetic Factors in Neck Aging

Neck aging is influenced by multiple factors, including genetic predisposition, muscle exercise, and fat distribution. The platysma muscle's condition plays a crucial role in neck appearance, with some individuals experiencing more pronounced changes than others.

Recovery and Expectations

Neck lift surgery requires approximately two weeks of recovery. Patients can expect comprehensive follow-up care, with surgical drains and non-dissolvable stitches removed during a post-operative appointment. Results are long-lasting, with many patients enjoying a rejuvenated appearance for several years.

Maintenance Recommendations

• Schedule adequate rest during recovery
• Follow post-surgical care instructions
• Consider nonsurgical maintenance treatments
• Maintain optimal skincare routine
