The Benefits of a Neck Lift

Dr. Panossian in Pasadena, CA, specializes in neck lift surgery, offering patients a rejuvenated neck contour and enhanced facial harmony. Discover the advantages of this procedure below:
- Tightens Sagging Skin: A neck lift effectively tightens and removes excess sagging skin, restoring a smoother and youthful neck contour.
- Eliminates Neck Bands: By tightening the platysma muscle and removing excess fat, a neck lift can eliminate prominent neck bands, resulting in a firmer and more defined appearance.
- Improves Jawline Definition: By addressing sagging skin and excess fat deposits in the lower face and jawline, a neck lift can improve the definition of the jawline, creating a more youthful and sculpted appearance.
- Slimmer Neck Appearance: Besides skin tightening, a neck lift can remove excess fat deposits under the chin and along the jawline, resulting in a slimmer and more refined neck profile.
- Enhances Overall Facial Harmony: By rejuvenating the neck area, a neck lift can enhance overall facial harmony and balance, helping patients achieve a more harmonious and youthful facial appearance.
Neck Lift Recovery
Following a neck lift procedure, you can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated area, which is normal and typically resolves within a few weeks. A bulky supportive dressing or an elastic facial compression garment may be applied to minimize bruising and swelling. Dr. Panossian may prescribe pain medication to manage any discomfort during the initial stages of recovery. Additionally, a small, thin tube may temporarily drain any fluid collections underneath the skin, typically removed in the office the following day. Patients are then allowed to shower. It's essential to avoid rubbing aggressively over the neck or the incisions for up to two weeks to prevent any complications. Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activities, including sports, exercise, and heavy lifting, for 4 to 6 weeks. Most patients typically return to work in 10 to 14 days. Makeup may be used as necessary to conceal any residual bruising. Proper care and adherence to post-procedure guidance allow you to enjoy a smoother, more contoured neck appearance and long-lasting results.

Is a neck lift painful?
Generally, a neck lift is not considered highly painful. Postoperative discomfort typically ranges from mild to moderate and can be effectively managed with prescribed pain medications. Most patients report experiencing more tightness or discomfort rather than acute pain during the recovery period.
What is the difference between a neck lift and a mini neck lift?
The primary difference between a neck lift and a mini neck lift lies in the extent of the procedure. A standard neck lift addresses more significant signs of aging with extensive corrections, including tightening the platysma muscle and removing excess skin. Conversely, a mini neck lift is less invasive, targeting milder sagging and often involving smaller incisions and a shorter recovery time.
Can I combine a neck lift with other procedures?
Combining a neck lift with other facial procedures is common for a more comprehensive rejuvenation. These may include a facelift, brow lift, eyelid surgery, or facial implants. Combining procedures can harmonize overall facial aesthetics and may be more cost-effective and efficient in terms of recovery time.
How much does a neck lift cost?
The cost of a neck lift varies based on factors such as the procedure's complexity, the surgeon's expertise, and geographic location. Additional expenses may include anesthesia, facility fees, and postoperative care. During your consultation with Dr. Panossian, you will receive a comprehensive breakdown of costs, enabling you to make an informed decision. Investing in a neck lift goes beyond finances; it's about enhancing self-confidence and quality of life.
What are the risks of a neck lift?
The risks associated with a neck lift may include bleeding, infection, difficulties with anesthesia, and potential scarring. Some patients may experience temporary tightness in the neck, while rare complications may include issues with swallowing or breathing and over- or under-correction. Following Dr. Panossian's pre- and postoperative instructions is crucial to minimize these risks, and his staff is available to address any concerns throughout the process.
