Neck Lift Plastic Surgery
With age, a number of changes take place in the neck, often making it less attractive and adding years to a person’s appearance. Some of these changes include excess fatty deposits, sagginess and drooping of the skin (jowls or “turkey neck”), and development of thick neck bands also known as platysma bands.
Neck lift surgery is typically done in conjunction with a facelift, but can also be performed alone. The main purpose of neck lift surgery is to enhance the definition of the jawline and smooth the neck. During the procedure, loose skin in the neck in tightened, excess fat is removed, and the stretched neck muscle is reduced. When performed by a skilled and experienced board certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Ali, neck lift surgery can take years off of your appearance!
