We use the best and latest Neck Lift techniques to guarantee you get the best results.
A neck lift (platysmaplasty) is a cosmetic surgery that can give your neck a more contoured and youthful appearance. It works by lifting and tightening your platysma muscle.
Neck lift surgery (platysmaplasty) can eliminate excess fat and sagging skin on your neck. The procedure also includes tightening your platysma muscle. You may wish to pursue this surgery if you have age-related skin changes or sagging skin from losing weight.
Afterward, the person may notice that the neck feels tight, but in most cases pain is not a problem. There may be bruising, which fades in a couple of weeks. Any scars resulting from the procedure are hidden under the chin or around the contours of the ears.
It is important to avoid lifting heavy items (including children and pets) for the first few weeks.
Most people who have undergone a neck lift will notice that pain, swelling and bruising resolve within two weeks, and the new contours of the neck will start to be visible. It may take up to three months for the swelling to go down.
Neck surgery can take place in the surgeon’s office-based surgical facility, an outpatient surgery center or in a hospital.
The surgeon will ensure the person is comfortable during the procedure by using anesthesia. A general anesthesia puts the person in a deep sleep for the surgery. Sedative medications allow the patient to remain awake but relaxed, with local anesthesia so there is no pain.
The procedure itself takes several hours, during which the surgeon makes small incisions around and behind the ear, and a very small one under the chin. After tightening the muscles in the neck and removing extra skin and fat, the surgeon closes the incisions and applies a pressure dressing around the person’s head and underneath the chin.
