ADVANCED NECK LIFT ENCINO, CA | DR. STEVEN J. VARKONY

UNDERSTANDING NECK LIFT SURGERY

A neck lift is a sophisticated surgical procedure designed to create a
more youthful appearance in the neck and jawline. By strategically
removing excess fat and skin and treating vertical neck bands
involving the platysma muscle, patients can achieve a dramatically
rejuvenated profile.

TARGETED NECK LIFT CONCERNS

Neck lift surgery addresses multiple age-related and weight
loss-related aesthetic challenges, including:

 	* Excess sagging skin in the lower facial region
	* Visible vertical neck muscle bands
	* Double chin appearance
	* Loss of neck and jawline definition

SURGICAL APPROACH

Dr. Varkony employs a meticulous surgical technique that involves
creating an internal muscle "corset" by carefully suturing the
platysma muscle edges. The SMAS (connective tissue covering neck
muscles) is also tightened to correct sagging and restore a more
refined neck contour.

SURGICAL PREPARATION

Patients should prepare for their neck lift by: 	* Planning
approximately one week off work 	* Avoiding strenuous activities for
three weeks post-surgery 	* Fasting after midnight before the
procedure

ANESTHESIA AND SURGICAL TECHNIQUE

Dr. Varkony offers multiple anesthesia options, including local
anesthesia, twilight sedation, and general anesthesia. Incisions are
strategically placed behind the ears and potentially under the chin to
minimize visible scarring while maximizing surgical effectiveness.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

The initial recovery phase typically spans one week, with minimal
swelling and bruising. Patients can expect to see final results within
several weeks, often experiencing a remarkably refreshed and younger
appearance.

LONG-TERM EXPECTATIONS

While a neck lift provides significant rejuvenation, the natural aging
process continues. Many patients consider revision procedures
approximately 10-12 years after their initial surgery to maintain
optimal results.

NECK LIFT IN ENCINO | ANDREW T. COHEN, MD, FACS

UNDERSTANDING NECK LIFT SURGERY

The natural aging process and weight fluctuations can cause weak neck
muscles, wrinkles, and sagging skin. Patients experiencing a "turkey
neck" due to stretched skin and loosened platysma muscles can benefit
from neck lift surgery. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Andrew
Cohen performs customized neck lift treatments to smooth, tighten, and
rejuvenate the neck region with natural-looking results.

WHAT IS A NECK LIFT?

A neck lift is a surgical procedure designed to address loose, sagging
skin in the jawline and neck while tightening visible muscle bands.
Depending on the patient's unique anatomy, liposuction may be used to
remove localized neck fat. Many patients opt to combine neck lift
surgery with a facelift for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

NECK LIFT PROCEDURE DETAILS

The outpatient procedure is typically performed under general
anesthesia and takes one to two hours. Dr. Cohen makes inconspicuous
incisions behind each ear and potentially under the chin. Through
these incision sites, he will:

 	* Smooth loose or wrinkled skin
	* Tighten neck musculature
	* Remove excess fat via liposuction if needed

RECOVERY AND EXPECTATIONS

Patients may experience temporary swelling, bruising, or numbness that
typically subsides within a week. Pain medication and ice packs can
help manage discomfort. Most patients return to daily activities after
one to two weeks, with full recovery taking four to six weeks.

SCARRING CONSIDERATIONS

Dr. Cohen strategically places incisions in less noticeable areas,
typically behind the ears or under the chin. Most patients find that
scars heal well and become increasingly inconspicuous over time,
blending into the natural contours of the head and neck.

COST FACTORS

Neck lift surgery costs vary based on individual treatment plans.
Factors influencing pricing include surgeon's fees, anesthesia,
surgical costs, and post-operative care. Financing options are
available through CareCredit®, ALPHAEON™ Credit, and BLIS®
Specialty Insurance.
