The aim of neck lift aesthetics is to give the neck a more aesthetic appearance, to ensure better contours, to recover sagging skin and muscles, to reduce wrinkles, and to make a younger and better appearance by removing excess fat. It makes the person look old and tired, and even if there is a lot of fat, it makes the person look fatter than they are. In some patients, the neck and jowl areas may be excessively fat even though they do not have body obesity. In this case, it causes the patient to look heavier than he is or even to look older than he is.
In what cases is it done?
It is more accurate to classify neck and jowl sagging according to age groups.
In young people:
-
Sagging often occurs due to excess weight
-
Structurally (genetically) only sagging due to fat in the area
-
Due to the small size of the jawbone, the tip of the chin is behind and the chin sags and looks oily, in other words, sagging due to the appearance of a double chin
-
In cases where the neck is short
In older ages:
-
Again, a fatty and obese appearance due to excess weight
-
Only skin sagging
-
Deformation and sagging of the skin and muscles
-
Excess muscle, skin and fat together
How is Neck and Jowl Aesthetics Performed?
Overweight In cases where the patient is young, local liposuction is often performed. Excess fat is removed and the fat that sags the chin is eliminated. Of course, for the nose, the skin elasticity must be good, that is, the patient must be especially young.
If sagging is accompanied by skin and muscles, which usually occurs in later ages. In this case, it is necessary to remove the fat, gather the muscles and stretch the excess skin.
Surgical intervention is often performed by entering from the naturally located line under the tip of the chin and behind the ear. Sometimes, just the method called a neck strap is sufficient. However, all interventions vary from patient to patient. In other words, these transactions are planned as a boutique. K Action is taken according to the needs of the business. Neck lift is often performed in combination with face lift surgeries. In lower face lift procedures, sagging in the neck is corrected. After the fat is removed, the muscles are tightened and excess skin is removed. Stitches usually dissolve on their own.
It is possible to perform the stretching procedure with local or general anesthesia. It does not require hospital stay. A special bandage is applied under the chin. Depending on the procedure performed, the patient can return to normal life within 3-7 days.
