Are You Considering a Neck Lift?

Once you start down the cosmetic treatment rabbit hole, you might find yourself with an entire Christmas list of procedures you want.

Of course, once you realize this may not be practical, it becomes a question of which procedure suits your needs best.

If the procedure you’re mulling over is a neck lift, this article may be just what you need. Are you a candidate for a neck lift? Here’s how to decide.

WHEN TO GET A NECK LIFT

A neck lift is a surgical procedure to reduce fatty jowls in the neck. This is one of the first places you show your aging, as fat accumulates under the neck.

You may be a healthy and fit individual, but genetically predisposed to deposit fat there. If this is the case, you may be a good candidate for a necklift.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM A NECK LIFT?

It’s worth going into how the procedure is performed. The doctor performs incisions underneath the chin, and tightens the platysma muscle, ‘sewing’ it together.

After this, skin is repositioned on the tighter muscle with sutures.

Neck lifts are generally performed together with liposuction as well. The actual extent of the procedure depends on the degree of the signs of aging in the patient.

Neck lifts, after all is said and done, are still surgical procedures. Despite being a fairly minor procedure, that means it comes with a significant recovery period.

If you’re considering a neck lift, consider that while you can return to work fairly fast, you may experience tightness of the neck for months after the surgery. Also consider that performed alone, a neck lift may heighten signs of aging in other parts of your face.
