What Is A Neck Lift?
Do you wear turtlenecks and scarves, even in warm weather to cover the loose, flabby skin on your neck? Plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Hakimi performs neck lift surgery at his Newport Beach, CA practice to address the appearance of an aging neck. This facial surgery tightens the area under your chin and along the neck to remove a "double chin" or "turkey neck." By surgically removing the excess skin and fat while introducing a tightening technique to create a softer neckline, this procedure can provide significant improvements to your profile.

Can I Get A Neck Lift?
We age from south to north. Neck usually shows signs of aging before the rest of your face. As long as your face doesnt have signs of advanced stages of aging such as heavy jowls a neck lift alone is a great procedure. Patients seeking neck lift treatment generally battle visibly sagging and hanging skin along the neckline. This loose skin is usually caused by numerous factors, like gravity, weight fluctuations, and aging. Whatever the reason may be, hanging neck skin causes an older, unbecoming look, which in most cases can only be corrected with skin removal and tightening. If your weight is stable, but you feel frustrated by the appearance of your neck, a neck lift surgery could be the answer you've been looking for.
How is A Neck Lift Performed?
During neck lift treatment, general anesthesia is used. An incision is placed behind your ears and follows your earlobes in the front without extending up into your face. If pockets of fat exist, a form of liposuction will be completed first. Next, any sagging skin will be trimmed away and the remaining skin will be pulled tight. This method of skin tightening is performed until the desired contour has been achieved. Even though sutures are placed at the incision area, scars should not be seen since they are located under your chin. After your treatment, you will likely experience some bruising, swelling, and moderate discomfort, but these will fade within a week. You will likely notice visible results almost immediately. In addition, it has been noted that the neck lift treatment can make one of the most significant improvements to an individual's profile, shaving years off their appearance.
