Overview

Neck lift surgery (also known as lower Rhytidectomy) is a surgical procedure that removes the excess fat in the neck area, causing a double chin or “turkey neck”. One can also choose to have this surgery if their neck skin looks saggy and ageing compared to the other areas on the face. This procedure helps to bring balance in the contours of the neck.

Surgery Procedure (how the surgery is performed):

Neck lift surgery is done in a few steps.

The first step to neck lift surgery is anaesthesia. This consists of two types- local and intravenous. The doctor chooses the best fitting anaesthesia depending on your requirements. He may recommend some medication too if needed prior to the surgery.

The second step is the incision. There are two types of incision depending on what kind of neck lift you require. These are- traditional neck lift incision and limited incision. Traditional neck lift incision starts from the hairline, leading down around the ears and heading at the back neck area. While, the limited incision, also known as the “Massai” neck lift revolves only around the ears.

In both the incisions, you may need to have the fat removed or the fat may be evenly distributed under your neck skin. In the third and final step, the excess skin is trimmed and the incisions are closed with the help of sutures. The neck is bandaged along with the face to avoid swelling and bruising.

Preparations to do before the Treatment

It is important to sit down and discuss the aspects of neck lift surgery with your cosmetic surgeon. Feel free to ask questions and have all your doubts cleared. Discuss your general health conditions or issues, any previous surgeries, consumption of minerals, supplements, addiction to smoking or alcohol (if you are having any). The doctor may suggest you some oral medications after studying your medical history. He will continually evaluate your overall health condition until the due date of your surgery.

After the surgery (what to expect, recovery and results):

Neck lift surgery requires a lot of patience as you cannot see changes within a short period of time. This takes about several weeks or even months for the changes to mature (sometimes, six months or more). Swelling and bruising are very common after the surgery. But one has to be under special care and follow the instructions given by the doctor. It is important to have a healthy lifestyle for fast and better recovery. Applying SPF (Sun Protection Factor) is a must. With time, you would notice visible changes in the contours of your neck and experience a youthful appearance.
