Because facelifts are among the best-known plastic surgery procedures, many people immediately think this procedure is the ideal surgical solution for them. Although a facelift can help many patients, some people may not need the full procedure. If your primary concerns are sagging skin under your chin, fat deposits on your chin and neck, or neck bands, a neck lift in Atlanta by Dr. Theresa Jarmuz could be the best option. Neck lift surgery helps women and men from Buckhead, Vinings, Smyrna, Brookhaven, and beyond restore youthful definition to their jawline and neck.
Improvement in your neck and chin can be accomplished in several different ways. Options include:
In most instances, Dr. Jarmuz will combine methods to give her patients optimal results. In addition, neck lift procedures are often combined with facelift surgery for rejuvenation of the mid to lower face.
A neck lift, technically called submentoplasty, involves an incision hidden approximately one inch beneath the chin. With this incision, loose skin and neck muscles are tightened, excess tissue and fat are removed, and a 90-degree angle is restored.
Patients with mild to moderate skin laxity who want a nonsurgical alternative to a neck lift might consider skin tightening with Ultherapy. It uses ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production in the skin for increased firmness over several weeks after treatment.
If sagging skin is not exclusive to your chin and neck, another facial surgery procedure such as a facelift, brow lift, or eyelid surgery can be combined with your neck lift. Dr. Jarmuz performs neck lifts with almost all of her face lift surgeries.
