UNDERSTANDING NECK LIFT SURGERY

Aging affects multiple areas of the body, with the neck often
revealing signs of aging that can make individuals appear older than
they feel. A neck lift addresses aesthetic concerns in the neck area,
providing comprehensive rejuvenation for patients seeking a more
youthful profile.

NECK LIFT TREATMENT AREAS

 	* Jowls and excess jawline fat
	* Double chin concerns
	* Loose neck skin
	* Neck muscle banding

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

A neck lift, medically known as lower rhytidectomy, is a surgical
procedure designed to improve the neck and jawline's appearance. Dr.
Vandegrift carefully creates strategic incisions to tighten muscles,
remove excess skin, and reposition fat for natural-looking results.

SURGICAL APPROACH

Procedures typically occur under general or local anesthesia with
sedation. The surgery generally takes two to three hours, with
potential variations depending on complementary treatments.
Liposuction might be incorporated to enhance neck contour and remove
stubborn fat deposits.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Full recovery from a neck lift takes approximately six weeks. Patients
can usually return to work within one to two weeks, with gradual
resumption of normal activities. Results develop progressively, with
initial improvements visible after bandage removal and optimal
outcomes emerging over several months.

CANDIDACY CONSIDERATIONS

Ideal neck lift candidates are generally healthy individuals
experiencing moderate to advanced neck aging. Good candidates have
realistic expectations and are committed to following post-surgical
instructions for optimal healing and results.

COMPLEMENTARY TREATMENTS

Dr. Vandegrift often recommends combining neck lift procedures with
complementary treatments like brow lifts, eyelid surgery, or
non-surgical options such as dermal fillers to achieve comprehensive
facial rejuvenation.
