Necklift

Necklift Before & After Photos

Sagging skin in the neck area occurs as the skin ages and loses its tone. Even younger patients can have premature aging in the neck area due to the laxity of the neck muscle and fat accumulation in this area.

Fortunately, skin has the ability to retract into more youthful positions. Liposuction is used to remove unwanted fat from the neck area, but a combination of liposuction and the tightening of the neck muscle may be more effective. This procedure is referred to as platysmaplasty. General anesthesia is generally used, and stitches are removed after one week. Bruising or swelling will usually subside within a month after the procedure.
