What is a Neck Lift?
A neck lift, or platysmaplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to correct signs of aging around the neck and jawline. This technique addresses loose skin, often referred to as a "turkey neck" or "wattle," by tightening the skin and muscles to create a more defined and youthful neck contour.
Neck Lift Techniques
Dr. Rostami utilizes two primary techniques to achieve optimal neck lift results:
- Platysmaplasty: Contours the neck muscles
- Cervicoplasty: Corrects loose skin around the jawline and neck
Candidates for Neck Lift Surgery
Ideal candidates for neck lift surgery typically have:
- Lost skin elasticity in the neck area
- Excess fat under the chin
- Sagging bands around the jaw and neck
- Significant weight loss resulting in excess neck skin
Benefits of a Neck Lift
A neck lift can provide numerous aesthetic benefits, including:
- Tighter, more youthful neck appearance
- Improved jawline definition
- Reduction of double chin
- Enhanced facial profile
The Neck Lift Procedure
Performed in our state-of-the-art surgical suite, the neck lift procedure involves carefully placed incisions, muscle tightening, and skin trimming. When appropriate, liposuction may be combined to further enhance results.
Recovery and Results
