Simplicity Neck Lift
You may notice signs of aging in your neck before they show up in your face. Facelift surgery can address them, but many people are not ready for the extensive surgery and recovery period associated with a traditional facelift, or do not need help in the other areas which a facelift addresses. As a more simplistic, minimally invasive, and targeted option, we offer Simplicity Neck Lift, to restore the beauty of your neck.
Signs of aging in the neck are caused by:
- Lax skin
- Excess fat
- Lax muscle (particularly the platysma muscle, which is on each side of the neck and pulls the corners of the mouth down. You can feel it tighten if you touch the side of your neck just below the ear, and clench your teeth.)
A neck lift, or submentoplasty, restores your youthful appearance in many ways:
- Creates a well-defined jaw line
- Restores the angle between the chin and neck
- Eliminates “turkey neck”
- Removes vertical bands in the neck
- Removes excess fat
- May tighten lax skin
- Tightens the platysma muscle
The Procedure
- A one inch incision is made under the chin
- Liposuction removes the excess fat
- The platysma muscle is stitched together from each side, creating a “sling” which defines the angle between the chin and neck while simultaneously removing vertical bands and providing support to the neck tissues
- The incision is closed
A neck lift is a minimally invasive procedure which rejuvenates the neck with minimal downtime and recovery. It can be combined with other procedures such as laser skin resurfacing, eyelid surgery, chin augmentation, or facial liposuction.
