A neck lift is a cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat around the jawline, creating a more defined and youthful-looking neck. Here are some details about neck lift before and after, product details, positive and negative aspects, and ingredients or materials:
Before the Procedure
- Hydration is very important before the surgery.
- Your surgeon should provide instructions on what to do before the procedure.
- Inform your doctor of any medications you’re using.
During the Procedure
- A neck lift is most often done under general anesthesia.
- There are several methods that can be used, depending on your anatomy, your skins flexibility, and your goals.
- Liposuction is the least invasive option.
- In another type of procedure, called an anterior neck lift, the surgeon makes a small incision under the chin.
After the Procedure
- Photographs may be taken so that you can compare your appearance before and after surgery.
- Results can be long-lasting.
- The recovery time is generally shorter than a full neck lift.
- You may be given some guidelines for do’s and don’ts to prepare for your thread lift.
- You’ll also be advised to avoid saunas and high-intensity workouts for the first week or so after the thread lift is performed.
- The American Society of Plastic Surgeons advises that you skip your daily moisturizer for the first few weeks after a thread lift, and sleep with your head propped up to avoid rolling over onto the newly placed sutures.
Positive Aspects
- A neck lift can help to define and enhance the jawline, creating a more youthful and attractive appearance.
- The procedure tightens loose skin on the neck, which can help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and sagging.
- It is considered the most effective cosmetic surgery procedure to get rid of loose neck skin, sagging jowls, and a turkey neck.
Negative Aspects
- Smoking tobacco promotes wrinkling of the skin and slows recovery and healing.
- The procedure can have side effects or complications.
Materials
- Medical-grade thread material is used in thread lifts.
- Dissolvable stitches are used to close incisions.
