Advanced Neck Lift in California | Dr. Kian J. Samimi

Neck Lift and Neck Liposuction Overview

A neck lift is a specialized surgical procedure designed to improve visible signs of aging in the jawline and neck region. The treatment addresses skin laxity, neck fullness, and provides enhanced definition to the lower facial contours.

Ideal Candidates for Neck Liposuction

The optimal neck liposuction candidate typically has:

• Excess neck fullness
• Undefined jawline
• Minimal skin laxity
• Good skin elasticity

Neck Liposuction Procedure Details

During neck liposuction, surgeons make small incisions behind each ear and underneath the chin. A tiny cannula is used to suction excess fat, often resulting in significant skin tightening without direct skin removal.

Surgical Technique

The minimally invasive neck lift allows treatment of more advanced skin laxity. Surgeons may create a small incision under the chin, suture the platysma muscle, and potentially use supportive ribbons to enhance neck contours.

Recovery and Expectations

Most patients experience mild discomfort and can anticipate the following recovery timeline:

• Return to work: Approximately 3 days post-procedure
• Return to gym/exercise: Around 1 week after surgery
• Compression garment wear: 6 weeks

Potential Side Effects

Patients may experience temporary bruising and swelling for a couple of weeks following the procedure. Wearing a specialized compression garment helps minimize these effects and supports optimal healing.
