Exploring the Benefits of Necklifts to Help Enhance Your Natural Look | Feldmar Aesthetics

Aging is a natural part of life, but it can often leave us with areas that have become less firm due to decreased skin laxity, even in your neck. If you’ve noticed a change around your neck in recent years, necklift surgery can definitely help you. At Feldmar Aesthetics in Beverly Hills, CA, we understand how necklifts can help you achieve a more youthful-looking neck. Our necklift procedures are designed to smoothen wrinkles and folds while lifting and providing back the volume often lost with aging. We appreciate the delicate nature of neck procedures and strive to create natural results.

What Is a Necklift?

A necklift is a neck contouring surgical procedure intended to smooth out loose, sagging neck skin, often caused by the aging process or genetics. Its primary goals are to minimize wrinkling and improve the overall firmness and smoothness of the jawline.

Two main necklift procedures exist: mini necklifts and deep necklifts. As the former is less extensive, it may benefit those who don’t need more intensive neck contouring. However, a deep necklift provides more dramatic results, sculpting and tightening the neck for a younger-looking look. Depending on an individual’s needs, either option is available to achieve their desired neck appearance. 

What Are the Benefits of Having One Performed?

If you want to contour and redefine your neckline, a necklift may be the perfect option. A necklift can provide desired results without the risks associated with more invasive cosmetic surgical procedures. Here are some of the benefits of necklift procedures: 

Quick Recovery Time

Necklift surgery can provide remarkable results with an impressively quick recovery time. Many patients return to normal daily activities within a week after the necklift procedure.

Minimal Scarring

Necklift procedures are known for being significantly less invasive than full facelifts and can result in minimal scarring after healing.

Tightening of the Neck Area

During necklift surgery, muscles are tightened, and fat is removed around the neck, reducing sagging skin. This helps to contour and lift the neck to give it a more youthful appearance.

How Is the Surgery Performed, And What Can You Expect Afterwards in Terms Of Recovery Time And Results?

Necklift surgery is becoming an increasingly popular cosmetic procedure, as it can quickly and effectively improve the appearance of a person’s neck area. It is essential to understand what this type of surgery entails before deciding if it is right for you, so let’s dive into how a necklift works and the recovery process post-surgery.

Procedure

A necklift procedure can vary depending on your desired goals. During the necklift surgery, we will use one of three methods: liposuction, cervicoplasty, or platysmaplasty.

Liposuction can help contour neck regions and reduce the appearance of a double chin. Using a hollow tube, fat is broken up before it is removed via a small incision or suctioned away. Completing a necklift surgery is followed with dressing and supportive garments for patient comfort and recovery improvements.

Cervicoplasty offers an additional neck contouring procedure that removes loose skin from the neck, giving it a youthful firmness by making an incision behind the earlobe and lifting and tightening the neck skin.

Platysmaplasty is a necklift procedure that provides neck contouring and firmness. It involves making incisions from your neck to the earlobe before removing and repositioning part of the platysma, which is then sutured. This differs from cervicoplasty as it does not remove fat but instead tightens the skin. The benefits are manifold, as this helps reduce signs of aging, fine lines, and wrinkles, resulting in a more structured neck profile. 

You will need to receive general anesthesia to complete the necklift procedure. Following the surgery, we recommend that another person drive you home due to the effects of the anesthetic. Depending on your needs and expectations, the necklift may be combined with other procedures, such as facelifts or eyelid lifts, to achieve the desired look. Consequently, our team will evaluate your needs before recommending an action.

Recovery and Aftercare

Recovering from necklift surgery requires following the specific instructions provided by your surgeon. Avoid taking any medications or supplements that have not been prescribed or approved. Pain medications and steroids may be recommended to manage discomfort during the recovery.

Additionally, avoid wetting your dressing, as this can increase the chances of infection. It is also necessary to avoid showering for at least 24 hours after the necklift surgery and ensure the dressing remains dry until then. Then, prevent strenuous physical activities for at least 2 weeks after the necklift procedure. Still, light walking can help improve blood circulation and speed healing, so take a few short walks daily while recovering.

Who Is a Good Candidate for A Necklift Surgery?

A necklift procedure can be very beneficial for individuals experiencing neck-related cosmetic issues. In particular, it is ideal for those with neck wrinkles, neck bands, neck jowls, and submental fullness – commonly known as a double chin. Those with excessive fat along the chin and neck are also good candidates for necklift surgery.

Additionally, people with loose skin or an unbalanced neck profile may benefit significantly from the necklift procedure due to extreme weight loss. Ultimately, the best way to determine whether or not you would be a good candidate for necklift surgery is to schedule a consultation with us and discuss it further. After proper evaluation, we can proceed with necklift surgery as expected, ensuring you get the most out of your necklift experience!
