Facelift and Neck Lift

This patient came to see us because she was unhappy with her tired appearance. She noticed that her early jowls and neck skin laxity contributed to her fatigued look. After a thorough facial assessment and discussion of aesthetic goals, a surgical plan was created to address her concerns.

A facelift and neck lift procedure was performed on this patient in our NYC office under local anesthesia with mild sedation. The incisions were carefully and discreetly placed around the ears, extending into the hairline behind the ears, as well as in the skin crease under the chin. The underlying muscle (or SMAS) was lifted and tightened. The main goal of this step was to create a youthful, defined contour of the lower face and get rid of tissue laxity.

For this patient, the facelift and neck lift surgery was able to effectively remove the jowls and restore a smooth and sculpted contour of the lower face and neck. The results are a significant, natural-looking rejuvenation, giving the patient the refreshed appearance she was seeking.
