What is a Neck Lift?
A neck lift is a procedure designed to rejuvenate the contours of the neck, restoring a more youthful appearance. Individuals often pursue this surgery to address issues such as neck sagging, excess fat, fullness under the chin, or the presence of a “gobble” in the neck. In some cases, patients choose neurotoxin injections into the neck muscles to alleviate “banding,” but it’s important to note that this is a temporary solution requiring repeated injections every four to six months.
What to Expect During a Consultation?
The initial stage involves a consultation with your plastic surgeon and their support staff. You will discuss your medical history, including surgeries, allergies, and current medications. Additionally, you’ll explore the features in your face and neck that contribute to an aged appearance. Bringing photos of yourself from 10 to 15 years ago can serve as a helpful reference when articulating your goals and planning the procedure.
How Is a Neck Lift Performed?
Neck lift surgery takes place in an outpatient surgery center. The duration of the surgery depends on the extent of the neck deformity, but most procedures are typically completed within approximately two hours. An additional hour is allocated for the recovery room.
