The following two sets of photographs are of a neck lift patient in Vancouver – before and after several months following the procedure:
A neck lift is used to rejuvenate the neck and reverse many of the age-related changes that occur in this area. Over time, the skin of the neck becomes loose and the muscles in the front of the neck separate, causing the characteristic “bands” apparent in the before photos on the left above.
During the neck lift procedure, inconspicuous incisions are made below the chin and behind the ears. The muscles under the skin are tightened and often sutured (sewn) together in the midline, and excess skin is removed. The neck lift restores the natural angle that exists between the jaw and the neck and restores the jawline as demonstrated above.
I perform all surgeries, including the neck lift, in our private and fully accredited surgical facility in Vancouver, British Columbia. Although recovery periods do differ from person to person, neck lift patients generally return to normal activities within 10 – 14 days.
