A neck lift, also known as platysmaplasty, is a procedure designed to recontour your neckline by removing excess skin and fat along your jaw, tightening sagging skin and giving you a more sculpted, youthful appearance. These are often provided in conjunction with a facelift for results that can last for years to come, provided the patient maintains their weight at the time of treatment.
As with the majority of our treatments, our plastic surgeon will begin by meeting with you for a personalized consultation, during which we will discuss your expectations and aesthetic goals and examine your face and neck. With your input, we will create a personalized treatment plan. After the procedure, we will provide detailed post-operation instructions to ensure your healing process is comfortable and to prevent any complications once you get back home. Most patients benefit from wearing a compression garment to help with swelling and to encourage positive healing after your operation.
