The neck, often overlooked in the pursuit of facial rejuvenation, plays a crucial role in defining the overall harmony and youthfulness of one’s appearance. Neck lift surgery, a cosmetic procedure skillfully performed by Dr. Aleksandr Shteynberg at Vantage Plastic Surgery in NYC, offers a transformative solution to address loose skin, excess fat, and the inevitable signs of aging around the neck and jawline.
Understanding Neck Lift Surgery
Neck lift surgery, also known as lower rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic procedure designed to reduce loose skin, eliminate excess fat tissue, and enhance the overall appearance of the neck and jawline. This surgical intervention is typically recommended for individuals experiencing signs of aging or hereditary factors contributing to a double chin. Dr. Aleksandr Shteynberg, a distinguished double board-certified plastic surgeon, excels in delivering exceptional results through neck lift surgery, helping patients achieve a more youthful and refined neck profile.
The Neck-Face Harmony
While a facelift addresses concerns in the lower face, jowls, and jawline, it may not fully address loose skin on the neck. The combination of a facelift and neck lift becomes a powerful solution to comprehensively rejuvenate the lower portion of the face and neck. Many patients opt for this combined approach to combat the formation of the notorious “turkey neck,” which can prematurely age their overall appearance.
Rejuvenating the Aging Neck
As the skin loses elasticity with age, the neck can exhibit various signs of aging, including lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. Dr. Shteynberg employs neck lift surgery to define the transition zone between the face and neck, effectively rolling back the clock on the aging process. The procedure addresses concerns such as sagging skin under the chin, pronounced neck cords, and the drooping of skin, fat, and tissue away from the neck.
In addition to the removal of excess skin, liposuction can be incorporated into a neck lift to eliminate unwanted fat and further tighten the skin and underlying tissue. Dr. Shteynberg’s expertise allows him to reshape the neck, providing patients with a smoother, more refined appearance that appears natural and youthful.
