Are you tired of wearing turtlenecks and scarves all year round to cover the loose, flabby skin on your neck? Raleigh, NC plastic surgeon Dr. Glenn Lyle provides neck lift surgery to eliminate the appearance of an aging neck. This cosmetic surgery reshapes and tightens the section on the underside of your chin and the entire neck to remove a "double chin" or "turkey neck." By surgically excising the excess skin and fat while using a tightening method to result in a softer neckline, neck lift surgery at Lyle Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics Center can provide dramatic enhancements to the lower section of your face.
Ideal Candidates
Individuals considering neck lift surgery generally deal with visibly sagging skin on the neck. Hanging neck skin is often caused by a range of factors including aging and significant weight loss. Facelifts generally incorporate a necklift procedure, however an isolated neck only deals with a neck though a small incision in front of the earlobe may be necessary. Regardless of the reason, loose neck skin produces an older and unbecoming look, which in most cases can only be cosmetically fixed with skin removal, treatment of underlying loose muscle and sometimes salivary and tightening. If you are physically healthy and at a good weight but you feel embarrassed by lines, wrinkles, and loose skin on the neck, a neck lift cosmetic surgery may be a recommended option.
Surgical Technique
Neck lift surgery is usually done with sedation or general anesthesia . An incision is placed just in front or behind your ears and into the posterior hairline and another one might also be created beneath your chin. If pockets of fat exist, liposuction may be the first step in the surgical process or direct removal. Following that, any sagging, loose, or hanging skin will be carefully excised and the remaining skin will be pulled tight. This method of skin tightening is performed until the desired contour has been attained. Even though your incisions are sutured closed, scarring should be minimally noticeable since they are placed under your chin. An injection such as Kybella may also be used to enhance the results. Other additional nonsurgical options can help the skin's texture and surface, such as laser, peel, or IPL treatment, to create a glowing appearance.
What to Expect
After a neck lift, there will probably be some mild swelling and discoloration from bruising, but these will dissipate in a few days. You should rest and try to avoid exercise or strenuous movements and activities for a couple of weeks to assist in a safe recovery. Supportive bandages or a "chin strap" may be recommended and are often used at night for a few weeks.During this time, loose clothing should be worn. You should see visible aesthetic differences almost immediately. In fact, it has been noted that the neck lift surgery can make one of the most stunning enhancements to your profile, turning back the hands of time on your appearance.
Lyle Plastic Surgery and Aesthetics Center Reviews
Team is amazing, surgery perfect, realistic expectations and after care. Had three consultations before hand. Made the right choice with Dr.Lyle! (Tummy tuck)
I had a fantastic experience at Lyle Plastic Surgery and Aesthetics! From start to finish, the staff was welcoming, professional, and made me feel completely at ease. I got lip fillers and the entire process was smooth and comfortable. My aesthetic nurse, Haley took the time to understand my goals and delivered beautiful, natural-looking results. I’m beyond happy with my experience and will definitely be returning for future treatments. Highly recommend!
Dr. Lyle and his staff members are amazing! While visiting his office, I met with an esthetician, financial advisor, nurses, PA's and Dr. Lyle himself. Every experience at this office has been fantastic, everyone is so nice and kind. I had a tummy tuck performed and my stomach looks better than it did in high school! I am so pleased with the outcome...and so is my husband 😊! I would highly recommend Dr. Lyle and will be returning for anything I might need in the future.
Can’t say enough great things about Lyle Plastic Surgery! From the appearance of the office, professionalism and knowledge of their team to the results! Stephanie is an amazing injector! Highly recommend.
Great Experience. Happy with Results! - Very pleased with the service I received here! Dr. Lyle made me feel very comfortable during every visit from the consultation to the post-op visits. He was straight forward with what to expect as well, which I really appreciate. The nurses and office staff was amazing as well! I had a facial done and it was so relaxing! I had a mommy makeover done that included a tummy tuck and breast lift. One year later and I'm very pleased with my results! People ask me who did my work and I proudly recommend him. He was a good fit for me. I'm considering one more procedure! If I decide to proceed I will definitely consult with him!As an incentive for posting a review, this reviewer received an entry into RealSelf’s monthly $500 gift card giveaway.
