Understanding Neck Lift Procedures
A Neck Lift, or cervicoplasty, is a specialized surgical procedure designed to contour and tighten the skin, fascia, and muscles in the neck area. This transformative treatment addresses signs of aging by reducing sagging skin, excess fat, and improving neck and jawline definition.
Benefits of a Neck Lift
- Improved neck and jawline contour
- Reduction of visible neck bands
- Enhanced self-confidence
- More youthful and refreshed appearance
- Long-lasting aesthetic improvements
Neck Lift Candidacy
Ideal candidates for a Neck Lift are individuals in good overall health with realistic expectations. Patients typically seek this procedure to address concerns such as:
- Excess skin or fat in the neck region
- Sagging skin and wrinkles
- Double chin or undefined jawline
- Visible neck muscle bands
Procedure Overview
The Neck Lift procedure is performed under general anesthesia. Surgical techniques may include liposuction to remove excess fat, platysmaplasty to tighten neck muscles, and skin tightening to create a smoother appearance. Incisions are strategically placed behind the ears and under the chin to minimize visible scarring.
Recovery and Results
Most patients require approximately one week of downtime following the procedure. Complete recovery can take 4-6 weeks. Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activities, follow specific post-operative care instructions, and maintain a healthy lifestyle to optimize and prolong results.
Complementary Procedures
Dr. Sullivan often recommends combining a Neck Lift with complementary procedures such as a facelift to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Each treatment plan is customized to meet the individual patient's aesthetic goals.
