Neck Lift In Anaheim

Experience a more youthful and defined neck and jawline with a neck lift. This surgical procedure effectively addresses signs of aging through the removal of excess skin, fat, and muscle tissue. Dr. Ardesh, a renowned expert, offers four types of neck lift surgeries tailored to your specific needs. During a consultation, he will discuss which option is best for you.

Choose the Under-Chin Neck Lift for a precise removal of superficial and deep fat, as well as tightening of the neck musculature. This procedure requires a small incision under the chin, measuring just 3 cm.

Opt for the Extended Neck Lift to go beyond the Under-Chin Neck Lift. This comprehensive approach involves additional incisions around the ear and hairline for enhanced neck muscle tightening and removal of excess skin.

For the ultimate rejuvenation, consider the Ardesh Refresh. This all-encompassing procedure combines a deep-plane facelift with the Extended Neck Lift, addressing both the neck and the face for stunning results.

Trust in Dr. Ardesh's expertise and advanced techniques to help you achieve a smoother and more youthful neck. Schedule a consultation today to learn more about these transformative neck lift surgeries.

Ideal candidates for a neck lift are those with sagging skin, excess fat, or loose muscle bands in the neck area. It is important for candidates to be in good overall health, have realistic expectations, and be non-smokers or willing to quit smoking during the recovery period.

Our personalized neck lift procedure involves Dr. Ardesh making careful incisions around the ears and under the chin. During the procedure, excess muscle is removed, the neck muscles are tightened, and any loose skin is trimmed. The result is a smoother and more youthful appearance.

A neck lift usually lasts for 2-3 hours. The duration varies based on the complexity of the procedure and if other facial procedures, like a facelift, are included.

Dr. Ardesh's patients often opt for a neck lift with minimal sedation and local anesthesia. This type of anesthesia doesn't involve a breathing tube or IV, unlike general anesthesia. By choosing minimal sedation, patients can enjoy a quicker and smoother recovery. They can even walk on their own after the procedure, without requiring a stretcher or wheelchair. Additionally, patients rarely recall any part of the procedure.

After a neck lift, patients may experience swelling and bruising, which usually go away within 1-2 weeks. Pain and discomfort are usually minor and can be relieved with prescribed pain medication. Patients can typically go back to work after 2 weeks, but should avoid vigorous activities for 4-6 weeks.

Neck lift surgeries come with their own set of risks, just like any other surgery. These include infection, hematoma, nerve injury, scarring, and complications from anesthesia. However, opting for a board-certified plastic surgeon can greatly reduce these risks.

The results of a neck lift can have long-lasting effects, but it's important to understand that the aging process doesn't stop. Factors like genetics, sun exposure, and lifestyle choices can influence how long the results will last. To extend the benefits of a neck lift, it's important to lead a healthy lifestyle and protect your skin from the damaging effects of the sun.

The price of a neck lift can vary based on the surgeon's fees, facility fees, and location. Keep in mind, a neck lift is a cosmetic procedure.

Find a top-notch, certified plastic surgeon by utilizing trusted resources. It is essential to thoroughly investigate and consult with multiple surgeons to ensure the best decision for your needs.
