Neck Lift
A neck lift is a surgical procedure that improves the appearance of the neck by tightening the underlying muscles and redraping the skin and subcutaneous tissues to achieve a harmoniously sculpted neck and jawline:
It can redefine the jawline
It can enhance the contour of the neck
It can restore the natural angle of the neck, enhancing overall facial harmony.
In a traditional neck lift, incisions are made either behind the ears and under the chin or along the natural creases of the patient's neck. The underlying neck muscles are then tightened to improve the neck contour, excess skin is trimmed, and the remaining skin and fat is then redraped for a rejuvenated appearance. Liposuction may be used to achieve a better contour..
A neck lift can take 2- 4 hours and you may need to stay in the hospital overnight. The downtime from neck lift surgery is up to 2 weeks with a gradual return to activities over 4-6 weeks. During recovery, it’s normal to experience swelling and bruising, or tightness in the neck which will gradually subside. The final results can be long-lasting, but will depend on your unique ageing process as well as your lifestyle.
