Neck Lift Surgery at Boca Raton Plastic Surgery Center

RECONTOUR YOUR NECK AND JAWLINE

As we age, our skin naturally produces less collagen, which causes the formation of jowls, sagging skin, noticeable neckbands, and the appearance of wrinkles. These changes can really affect how your face looks as a whole. Fortunately, a neck lift procedure offers a cosmetic solution to address these concerns and restore a more youthful and revitalized appearance to the neck and jawline. At Boca Raton Plastic Surgery Center, Dr. Keusch combines the benefits of a neck lift with liposuction, creating a more sculpted look that can help take years and pounds off of a patient’s appearance.

HOW DOES NECK LIFT SURGERY WORK?

While there are several methods to neck contouring, Dr. Keusch will discuss those options during your consultation and provide her expertise on which procedure will give you the best results. Often times, she will combine liposuction with a neck lift to help create a more contoured and youthful appearance. The surgery begins with sculpturing, which helps reposition the neck muscles to where they were when they were younger. After repositioning the muscles, Dr. Keusch may use liposuction techniques to help reduce neck fat. The incisions (which are typically placed underneath the chin or behind the ears) are closed at the end of the procedure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please feel free to contact our office directly if you have additional questions about neck lift surgery.

You’re a good candidate for neck contouring if you’re bothered by sagging skin or excess neck fat (or both!), and you can’t target these issues through diet and exercise alone. The ideal candidate should be a nonsmoker who is committed to continuing with a healthy lifestyle.

You may notice your results right away, especially if you had a significant amount of neck fat or skin sagging around the jawline. However, optimal results usually won’t be visible until after a month or two of recovery, as this is when the majority of swelling and bruising have dissipated. Your results will include a smoother jawline profile, a more contoured neck, and a lot less sagging skin and wrinkles!

During the first week of recovery, you should expect to be a little uncomfortable, as this is when the majority of your swelling and bruising will be visible. Some patients may want to arrange for care during the first 48 hours of their recovery; however, you should be back on your feet around the third day.

You may be able to return to work in about a week, depending on Dr. Keusch’s approval. The majority of swelling and bruising should have gone down after six to eight weeks, although some slight swelling may be present for a few months after your procedure.

Throughout your recovery, you’ll have regular check-ins with Dr. Keusch to ensure your recovery is successful.
