The Potential Results of a Combined Face and Neck Lift
The look of your skin on your face and neck look plays a huge role in your appearance. One way to turn back the clock is by choosing to combine a face and neck lift. The result will be a more youthful you!
Neck Lift
A neck lift creates a tighter neckline by contouring and removing loose skin. It is generally performed as an outpatient procedure under local or general anesthesia. Small incisions are made under the chin and behind one or both ears. The surgeon then excises extra fat, tightens muscles, and removes excess skin. Within three months, most patients will enjoy the full effects of this procedure.
Facelift
As you age, your skin loses elasticity and muscle tone. A facelift tightens the skin, eliminating fine lines and wrinkles. Incisions are made around the ear and loose skin in pulled back. This helps to create a rested and youthful look. Skin will be re-draped and excess may be removed, creating the results you’re looking for. You may be kept overnight after surgery, and with most patients the final results will be apparent in about a month.
The Combination
When you opt to have a neck and face lift at the same time, you can reduce the amount of time spent in surgery and recover from both simultaneously. Since you’ll only be undergoing one surgery, your plastic surgeon will be able to eliminate redundant steps, reducing the time and risk of the surgery. You’ll also spend less time recovering, and be able to show off your results earlier. If you’re considering a neck lift and a face lift, combining the two is a great option.
If you are looking to create a more youthful you, a combination neck and face lift is worth considering. Contact Dr. James Baker at (888) 533-1478 to learn more!
