A graceful and smooth neckline can improve your overall appearance. Patients of any age can benefit from getting neck contouring surgery.
An Overview of Neck Contouring
Neck contouring is a procedure that creates a firmer, smoother, more well-defined neckline. Neck contouring can help balance your facial features. Your jawline will frame your face better.
Options For Neck Contouring
There are different options available for contouring the neck. Dr. Boggess will take the patient’s individual anatomy and aesthetic goals into consideration. Some people may need to reshape their chin. Others want to get rid of their turkey neck. These procedures can be performed as an isolated procedure or along with other facial procedures, depending on the specific needs of the individual.
Neck Liposuction
Do you suffer from a double chin despite the fact that you work out? If so, then you may be a candidate for neck liposuction. This procedure can remove excess fat, but it will not correct sagging skin. It is ideal for people who have fat accumulation in the neck and jowls. Younger people, below the age of 40, tend to have good skin elasticity, which makes them better candidates for this procedure. Older patients with loss of skin elasticity will likely need a face/neck lift to address skin laxity, in addition to the neck liposuction.
Face/Neck Lift Surgery
If you have loose skin around your neck, then you may want to get a face/neck lift. The surgery removes the excess skin and/or tightens the neck muscles. Many patients who have lost a significant amount of weight often opt for this surgery.
Getting Facial Procedures Along With Neck Contouring
There are many other procedures that may be performed in order to create a person’s ideal appearance. Procedures that can be performed along with neck contouring include the following:
Facelift – It is rare for a surgeon to perform a facelift procedure without contouring the neck. Combining a face/neck lift will correct sagging cheeks, jowling, and laxity in the neck.
Chin Augmentation – A surgeon can insert an implant in your chin during a neck liposuction. In most cases, the same incisions are used during each procedure. Chin augmentation can help refine the neckline and correct a receding chin.
Rhinoplasty – Balanced features are one of the keys to an attractive face. Reshaping the nose can drastically improve a person’s face. Rhinoplasty, which is usually referred to as a nose job, can also change the size of the nose.
