Introduction to Neck Lift

As we age, tissue from the cheek and jaw descend, resulting in the formation of jowls and loss of definition of the jawline. Neck skin also becomes looser with the development of neck banding and blunting of the neckline. This can be defined as a “turkey neck,” which is a term you surely don’t want to hear when relating to your neck contours. Don’t fret; a Neck Lift may be just what you need to prevent this cosmetic hurdle. At Seattle Face & Skin, we take a conservative yet effective approach to this surgery which involves tightening the muscles in your neck, repositioning deeper layers of tissue, trimming away excess fat and skin, and refining your jaw for a more elegant and youthful appearance. This page is dedicated to helping you understand the life-changing details of a Neck Lift in Seattle and if you can benefit from the procedure.

What is a Neck Lift?

A Neck Lift in Seattle is a cosmetic surgical procedure that aims to improve the appearance of the neck by addressing signs of aging such as sagging, loose skin, wrinkles, and excess fat deposits. During the procedure at Seattle Face & Skin, we typically make incisions behind the ears and under the chin to access the underlying muscles and tissues of the neck. Dr. Bhrany may then remove excess fat, tighten the muscles and skin, and reposition the skin to create a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.

What are the Benefits of a Neck Lift?

We see all different types of patients for our Neck Lifts in Seattle, and nothing is more rewarding than witnessing our clients experience the incredible benefits the procedure offers. Some of these benefits include:

  • Refined, smooth jawline
  • A natural, rejuvenated appearance
  • Scars are almost imperceptible!
  • Correction of sagging, loose, or crepe-like skin of the face & neck
  • Tightened neck muscles and vertical bands
  • Excess fat removed underneath the neck & chin

Who are the Best Candidates for Neck Lift?

A good candidate for any surgery in Seattle should be of sound mind and body, with no major medical conditions that might interfere with the surgery or recovery. Patients with fullness only underneath the chin may benefit from neck liposuction or a neck lift. Dr. Bhrany will be able to provide his expert recommendations during your consultation.

*Patients should also be non-smokers who are realistic in their expectations for their results.

What’s the First Step?

The first step to a Neck Lift is to reach out to Seattle Face & Skin and schedule a consultation with Dr. Bhrany. During this appointment, you’ll have the opportunity to discuss your goals and expectations for the procedure. Dr. Bhrany will examine your neck and ask about your medical history to ensure that you’re a good candidate for our surgery. Open communication is key during this consultation, so don’t hesitate to ask any questions or share any concerns you may have. Once you and Dr. Bhrany have developed a surgical plan that you’re both comfortable with, our Patient Coordinator will work with you to schedule a surgery date and provide you with pre-operative instructions to help you prepare for the procedure.

What to Expect on the Day of Neck Lift

When it comes to the day of your Neck Lift procedure, we spare no expense for your comfort and confidence. Your success is our success. Depending on your preferences and medical history, you may receive sedation and local anesthesia or general anesthesia. Dr. Bhrany will discuss both options with you during your consultation and determine which method is best for your specific needs. Once the anesthesia has taken effect, Dr. Bhrany will make small incisions behind each ear and under your chin. Using specialized equipment, any excess fat around your jawline and beneath your chin will be carefully removed through liposuction. This process will help to create a more defined and youthful appearance on your neck. With Dr. Bhrany’s skill and expertise, you can trust that your neck lift procedure will be a success.

With proper maintenance and self-care, you can enjoy the benefits of your Nec Lift for up to 10 to 15 years! It’s important to note that the longevity of your results will depend on a number of factors, including your age and the severity of your concerns prior to the procedure.

Neck Lift Recovery

After your Neck Lift surgery, a gentle bandage will be wrapped around your face and neck to reduce swelling and bruising. To prevent the buildup of excess fluid or blood under the skin, a thin tube may also be inserted to drain any fluids that collect during the healing process.

To ensure a successful recovery, you will receive detailed instructions from our technician team. During your recovery period, it is essential to keep your head elevated above your heart to minimize swelling. It’s also important to keep your head straight with no excessive twisting or bending. Avoid applying ice to your neck, as this can compromise blood flow.
