Neck/Face Lift/Tightening

A neck-lift, also known as a lower ‘rhytidectomy’ is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat around the jawline. This procedure is often used to remove fatty deposits underneath the chin area, remove or alter neck muscles, remove ‘muscle-banding’ in the neck and loose skin on the neck. Some candidates may be hesitant to opt for a full face-lift if they are satisfied with their face, and that is where a neck-lift comes in. Those who would like to improve their confidence, creating a defined, more youthful looking appearance may opt for. As we get older, neck skin tends to sag and can lead to what many refer to as ‘turkey neck’ or ‘turkey wattle’. Neck muscles begin weakening and your skin loses its elasticity, or ability to stretch and stay tight. This is when a neck-lift surgery may be a good option.

A face-lift may be performed at the same time as a neck-lift procedure. This surgical procedure which is also known as a ‘rhytidectomy’, is used to create a more naturally youthful facial appearance, which lifts and firms sagging and facial tissues, removes excess skin and creases around the mouth and nose, smoothing out folds, wrinkles and more. These procedures involve making incisions in front of the ear up to the hairline and behind the ear and can either be used for cosmetic reasons or as part of necessary facial reconstruction. Those who are physically healthy, do not smoke and who are not satisfied with the signs of aging seen in either their neck or face may be a good candidate for either of these procedures.
