Neck Lift for Men Newport Beach & Orange County
A neck lift for men can enhance the appearance of the neck, taking years off of your appearance.
As you age, you might notice the skin around your neck beginning to sag. You might even have excess skin that gives you a double chin. Our board-certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Kevin Sadati, can help to reverse that aging process. In fact, cosmetic neck surgery is one of the most common requests we get from our Newport Beach patients.
The neck lift is a procedure which not only removes the excess fat and skin from the neck but also tightens the neck muscles to give the face an overall toned and prominent look. Not only will it help a person look about 10 years younger, but it also will make it appear as if they have lost a lot of weight as well.
This procedure may include:
- Neck liposuction which removes the excess fat
- A platysmaplasty to tighten the neck muscles
- A cervicoplasty which removes excess skin via hidden incisions behind the ears
Who is a Male Neck Lift Candidate?
The ideal candidate for a male neck lift is typically between the age of 40 and 70 years old. However, it is not uncommon for people who have sagging skin due to genetics to have it performed even earlier than that. No matter what a patient’s age is, they must be in both good physical and emotional health. It is always important to have realistic expectations when going into a cosmetic surgery procedure. For more information and to find out if this procedure is right for you, set up a consultation today.
Preparing for Your Male Neck Lift
Before undergoing your male neck lift, there are some things you should to do prepare. This may include temporarily discontinuing certain medications or herbal supplements. Patients should also stop smoking at least two weeks prior to their procedure. Dr. Sadati will provide you with a full set of preparation instructions, as well as answer any questions that you may have prior to your male neck lift.
Dr. Sadati’s Male Neck Lift Method
Dr. Sadati has performed more than 3,500 lower face and neck lift surgeries using local anesthesia and twilight sedation without the need for general anesthesia. His method has been published in the American Journal of Cosmetic Surgery and applied by many facial plastic surgeons. Dr. Sadati has also been invited to premier plastic surgery conventions such as American Academy of Facial Plastic Surgery, American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, and American College of Osteopathic Otolaryngology & Facial Plastic Surgery, Aesthetic Show, and LAMCA plastic surgery conferences to educate other plastic surgeons on his innovative facelift technique.
A male neck lift is performed in the comfort of our state of art facility using twilight sedation and local anesthesia without the need for general anesthesia. Once you are asleep and your neck is completely numb with local anesthesia, Dr. Sadati begins your neck lift by making a small incision behind your ears and along your hairline. A neck lift is the combination of two procedures.
The first is a cervicoplasty, which removes excess skin on the neck. The second procedure is a plastysmaplasty, which tightens the neck muscles.
Small dissolvable sutures are used to close the incisions. The result is a tight, smooth neck that looks up to thirty years younger.
A male neck lift generally takes about two hours. Some patients elect to have additional surgery (such as a neck liposuction, lower facelift, fat grafting, dermal fillers or cheek augmentation). Time estimates are reviewed during the consultation so that you know the length of your surgery.
After your neck lift is complete, a gauze dressing is applied. The nerve blocking technique lasts about nine hours. Therefore, there is no immediate post-operative pain and no need for heavy narcotics. There is also no nausea and vomiting associated with this procedure since it is not performed under general anesthesia.
