Neck Lift
Neck Lift Mobile Alabama – Neck Lift
You may be candidate for a neck lift if you have localized deposits of fat in the anterior part of the neck — under the chin or loose skin around the neck. A neck lift, Mobile Alabama plastic surgeons say, may also be performed if you have muscle laxity under the chin.
A neck lift is intended to give the patient a more youthful neck with a better contour. Neck lift is usually done on an outpatient basis under sedation and local or general anesthesia. The neck lift procedure requires an incision under the chin and fat is then suctioned or excised, muscles are tightened, and a small amount of skin may be removed. The patient goes home with their chin and neck wrapped in dressings or in an elastic neck sling. Initial discomfort is easily controlled with oral medication. Swelling and bruising disappear over approximately 2 weeks. The final result is visible in 1–3 months.
A neck lift is considered cosmetic and therefore is not covered by insurance. The patient is responsible for payment. With a neck lift, Mobile Alabama plastic surgeons caution, there are specific risks and the suitability for a given individual can be determined only at the time of consultation. All surgical procedures have some degree of risk.
Minor complications that do not affect the outcome occur occasionally. Major complications are unusual.
