Neck Lift

Although most signs of aging develop in the face, the neck is also susceptible to the aging process. With a neck lift, patients can address changes in the neck to restore a youthful, more attractive appearance. Eko Plastic Surgery offers this and other facial surgery procedures to the residents of Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, CA and surrounding areas.

FAQs

WHAT IS A NECK LIFT?

A neck lift is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the neck and chin area. It is an ideal treatment for patients who would like to address signs of aging, jowls, a double chin, or the appearance of a “turkey neck.” A neck lift also addresses loose neck skin and eliminates unsightly neck bands to enhance the contours of the neck. By removing bulk and tightening the neck, this procedure often results in a younger and slimmer appearance. Ideally, a neck lift should be done at the same time as a facelift to produce the maximum effects of facial rejuvenation. Many patients choose to combine this procedure with a facelift for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

HOW MUCH DOES A NECK LIFT COST?

The cost of your neck lift at Eko Plastic Surgery will vary depending on the treatment plan we develop for you. During your consultation, Dr. Eko will discuss your cosmetic goals and treatment needs in order to determine the treatment approach that best suits you. For this reason, we will not be able to provide you with the exact cost of your treatment until you had the chance to come in and discuss your treatment goals with Dr. Eko.

WHAT IS THE NECK LIFT PROCEDURE LIKE?

The neck lift procedure is usually performed on an outpatient basis. During the surgery, incisions are typically made around the ears and under the chin, where they will be well-concealed. Through these incisions, Dr. Eko removes excess fat and skin and tightens the neck muscles to produce an improved contour and appearance of the neck.

WHAT IS THE RECOVERY LIKE AFTER A NECK LIFT?

Following a neck lift, patients often experience temporary mild to moderate swelling and bruising. The initial recovery period takes about two weeks, during which time patients are encouraged to take as much time off of work and other activities as possible to ensure a smooth recovery. After this recovery period, it may still take a few weeks or months for the full results of the neck lift to become apparent.

ARE THE RESULTS FROM A NECK LIFT PERMANENT?

The results of a neck lift are incredibly long-lasting, but they cannot prevent signs of aging from developing in the future. Patients can achieve a significantly younger appearance that lasts for many years, but will still develop gradual changes in the neck due to the natural aging process.

If you are considering a neck lift, contact us today to schedule a consultation and discuss your goals with Dr. Eko. We are proud to offer this procedure to the residents of Palm Desert, Palm Springs, Rancho Mirage, and the nearby areas of California.

Will there be visible scarring after the procedure?

There will be some scarring, usually placed in discreet areas. Over time, scars typically fade with proper care and sun protection.

How long do the results of a thigh lift last?

The results of thigh lift surgery in Palm Desert can be long-lasting, especially if you maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. While your skin will naturally age over time, the improvement in contour is generally permanent.

Can I combine a thigh lift with other procedures?

Yes, many patients combine a thigh lift with procedures like a tummy tuck or arm lift as part of a full body contouring after weight loss plan. Dr. Eko, your plastic surgeon for thigh lifts in Palm Desert, can discuss the best combination based on your goals and health.

How can I get a thigh gap?

The thigh gap is a highly sought-after cosmetic trait. People with a thigh gap have a small gap between the thighs when the legs are together. For some, a strict diet and exercise can create a thigh gap. Unfortunately, a thigh gap is often difficult to obtain. If you are interested in achieving a thigh gap, you may be able to achieve one with an inner thigh lift at Eko Plastic Surgery.

What is the difference between inner and outer thigh lifts?

Inner and outer thigh lifts are two different approaches to the thigh lift procedure, which can be performed together or individually. An inner thigh lift targets the inside of the leg. It is often ideal for patients who experience discomfort due to their legs rubbing together or those who desire a thigh gap. An outer thigh lift targets the outside of the legs and the lower hips. It is often ideal for patients pursuing a thigh lift treatment to enhance their figure.

What is the difference between an upper and lower body lift?

Upper and lower body lifts are two different approaches to the body lift procedure, which can be performed together or individually. An upper body lift targets the arms, chest, and upper back. A lower body lift targets the abdomen, lower back, thighs, and buttocks. Both procedures eliminate stubborn fat and excess skin to create a more contoured figure.
