A defined, sculpted neck is elegant and youthful — but age has a way of creeping in and causing the neck to appear wrinkled, aged, and loose. This is where a neck lift can make a significant improvement.
The Beauty of a Neck Lift
Dr. Joel Beck is excited to offer the neck lift procedure at his Charlotte, NC plastic surgery practice. The neck is a common area for concern, as it comes with many issues that can give away age — such as a double chin, loose skin, neck bands, and the “turkey wattle”. These areas can make you appear heavier or older than you actually are, but a neck lift achieves a smoother, more defined, more attractive look for the neck and profile.
Key Benefits of a Neck Lift
- Reduces a double chin
- Beautifully defines the chin, neck, and jawline
- Tightens sagging skin
- Decreases neck wrinkles
- Delivers a more youthful-looking neck
- Boosts appearance and confidence
Candidates for a Neck Lift
Dr. Beck is pleased to offer this effective surgical procedure to those in the Charlotte, NC area and beyond. Individuals who are good patients for a neck lift are those who:
- Want to improve the appearance of their neck
- Want to remove a double chin, creased neck skin, or a “turkey wattle”
- Are unhappy that their neck is making them look older or heavier than they are
- Are non-smokers in overall good health
Neck Lift Surgery: What to Expect
A neck lift is performed under local anesthesia and light sedation, or with IV sedation. Incisions are made beneath the chin and behind the ear, and the skin will be detached from the underlying muscle and fat. The fat will then be carefully removed, along with excess skin, and the muscles will be tightened. Once the incisions have been closed, surgical dressings will be applied. These will need to be worn during recovery. The entire neck lift procedure typically takes two hours.
