Neck Lift - San Francisco Specialist Dr. Aycock

A neck lift can be one of the simplest facial plastic surgery procedures, yet one with the most dramatic results. As we age, loose skin, wrinkles, and fat deposits can form under the chin and around the neck, creating a flabby appearance.

By removing excess skin under the chin and in the front of the neck, San Francisco surgeon Dr. Aycock can help you look younger by giving your neck a more youthful contour. People are often self-conscious about sagging neck skin, and look and feel significantly younger after surgery.

Neck Lift Procedure Information

Neck lift plastic surgery is performed on an outpatient basis in our Bay Area plastic surgery facility with either local or general anesthesia. The neck lift procedure may require an incision under the chin, behind the ears, or both. Depending on your particular needs, fat may be removed, muscles in the neck may be tightened, and skin around the neck may be excised or tightened.

Recovery from Neck Lift Surgery

After surgery, you will return home in bandages to protect the neck. Initial discomfort can easily be controlled with oral medication, and swelling and bruising typically subside in about two weeks. The final results of neck lift surgery are evident in just one to three months.

Additional procedures that may enhance the result of a neck lift are Facelift or Liposuction.
