Male and Face and Neck Lift Case #59

Description:

This male patient presented to us with significant skin laxity in the face and neck. He has developed loss of jawline contour and extensive sagging in the neck, which made him look much older than his actual age. After a thorough evaluation of the patient’s facial features and surgery goals, a facelift and neck lift was recommended to address his concerns.

The surgical procedure was performed on this patient in our NYC office using local anesthesia with mild sedation. The incisions were carefully placed curving around the ears and behind the hairline. For the neck lift, an incision was placed in the skin crease under the chin. The deep layers of facial tissue, underlying muscle (or SMAS) was lifted and tightened and excess fat and loose skin was removed.

The facelift and neck lift surgery was able to achieve a significant, yet natural-looking transformation for this patient. The neck contour was restored and excessive fullness under the chin eliminated. He appears more youthful and refreshed with a strong chin and smooth jawline.
