Face and neck lift is a cosmetic surgical procedure performed to address sagging skin and signs of aging in the face and neck. The surgery involves tightening and repositioning the face and neck tissues, removing excess skin and fat, and reducing wrinkles and other signs of aging. Neck lift surgery is also performed to enhance the appearance of the jawline and neck.
The surgery is typically performed through incisions made around the ear and under the chin to allow for access to the face and neck tissues. The surgeon then repositions the skin and tissues and removes any excess skin and fat. The procedure is generally performed under local or general anesthesia and takes several hours.
Face and neck lift surgery is typically recommended for individuals over the age of 40, but it can also be performed on younger individuals depending on their health and needs. Neck lift surgery is suitable for individuals who want to address sagging skin and improve the appearance of the jawline and neck. As with any surgery, it is important to have a detailed consultation and evaluation of your health before undergoing the procedure.
Patients may experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort in the first few days following surgery. It is important to rest and avoid strenuous activities during this time. Patients can usually return to work and normal activities within 1-2 weeks following surgery. The overall recovery time may vary depending on the type of surgery and individual factors. Regular follow-up appointments with the surgeon are important to monitor the healing process. Performing face exercises recommended by your surgeon can help speed up the recovery process.
