Neck Lift Houston

Revitalize Your Neck with a Custom Neck Lift in Houston

While many popular cosmetic treatments focus on signs of aging in the face, any skincare regimen that ignores the neck will leave clients dissatisfied. Over time, the neck can succumb to sagging, wrinkles and lines, vertical banding, “turkey neck,” and a double chin, all of which can compromise an attractive appearance and leave the patient feeling self-conscious.

A neck lift is a surgical procedure to rewind the hands of time, delivering smoother, more youthful-looking contours and firmer, tighter skin. It can be performed in tandem with a facelift or on its own. At Eisemann Plastic Surgery Center in Houston, we are excited to discuss your options for neck rejuvenation and look forward to scheduling your confidential consultation today.

What is a neck lift?

A neck lift is made up of cervicoplasty to remove excess drooping skin and platysmaplasty to tighten the neck muscles. Neck liposuction is sometimes added to the mix as well to help remove stubborn pockets of submental fat. The procedure can help combat vertical neck bands, a “turkey wattle,” and other signs of aging that keep you from looking and feeling your best. It can restore a smooth, taut profile and allow you to begin enjoying a wider array of wardrobe choices and hairstyles.

Who makes a good candidate?

Ideal candidates for a neck lift are typically between 40 and 60, although the procedure can be performed on older individuals provided they are healthy enough. As the skin ages, it loses its natural elasticity, resulting in sagging contours. The production of collagen and elastin also begin to decline, leading to wrinkles and lines. In addition, weight fluctuations, lifestyle choices, and hormonal changes can affect the neck’s appearance, sending patients in pursuit of a lasting cosmetic solution.

As long as you are a non-smoker of sound mind and body and you have realistic expectations for your results, you will qualify for neck lift surgery. Our team will conduct a detailed consultation to ensure a neck lift is the best fit for your goals.

What can I from the procedure?

A neck lift is performed under general anesthesia on an outpatient basis and can take several hours to complete. Incisions are typically placed behind the ears within the hairline. An additional incision may be created beneath the chin to allow for neck liposuction. Your surgeon will remove excess skin while also tightening the neck muscles and eradicating fat deposits. The end result is a more elegant silhouette that is free from imperfections and is perfectly suited to your anatomy.

What will my recovery entail?

While a neck lift is a simple, straightforward process, your incisions will still need time to properly heal. Your neck may feel tight as the anesthetic wears off and you adjust to your newly firmed contours. We will provide a detailed aftercare plan as well as pain medications to keep your recovery comfortable and stress-free. After one week, most patients find they can manage with just ibuprofen.
