NACK-LIFT

Neck lift, also known as Platysmaplasty is a cosmetic surgical procedure. Neck Lift is a surgery designed to reduce the loose look of sagging skin in the neck area and under the jaw line. Your expectations need to be realistic. Most patients are pleased with the outcome and find they gain a feeling of increased self-confidence especially when wearing can those more revealing clothes. The overall achievement will be having a completely natural look that gives the impressions you have lost weight and/or look younger. A neck lift is actually a set of procedures used to enhance the appearance of your neck:

• Cervicoplasty is the procedure used to remove excess skin
• Platysmaplasty removes or alters neck muscles

Before your Platysmaplasty surgery procedure, you should be given a pre-operative information packet that explains everything you should do and know before your surgery date. In your initial consultation the surgeon will evaluate your Neck, including the skin, and discuss your goals for the surgery. Your surgeon should check for medical conditions that could cause problems during or after surgery, such as uncontrolled high blood pressure, blood clotting problems, or the tendency to form excessive scars. Your surgeon will explain the techniques and anesthesia he or she will use, the type of facility where the surgery will be performed. Your surgeon will give you specific instructions on how to prepare for surgery Platysmaplasty procedure.

 

Here are some of the most common neck lift procedure concerns:

 

Turkey wattle neck
Excess fat
Too much skin

Turkey Wattle -- Weakened or Loose Neck Muscles
If you have weakened or loose neck muscles, this may cause the "turkey wattle" or appearance of neck "bands."

Your surgeon may recommend platysmaplasty surgery. The surgeon makes incisions under your chin and/or behind your ears to access the neck muscle and manipulate it accordingly. Sometimes, that may even mean removing some muscle. Your surgeon may also use permanent sutures to hold the tissue in place. There are new less invasive procedures, where your surgeon may be able to make smaller incisions and use an endoscope to complete your surgery. You and your surgeon will discuss what type of anesthesia to use, depending on your level of comfort. If you want to remain asleep during the procedure, you should request general anesthesia. Otherwise, your surgeon can use local anesthesia with sedation. It's up to you, however, to make that determination. Instead of surgery or in addition to it, Botox injections can relax parts of the platysma that are responsible for the "band" appearance or look of fullness. The injections are completed on an outpatient basis and typically can be completed within 15 minutes.

 

Excess Fat
During liposuction, your surgeon will make a small incision below the chin and remove the excess fat. If you are undergoing multiple procedures during your neck lift, it is very common for plastic surgeons to begin with liposuction.If this is the only procedure you'll need, you should plan to spend up to an hour undergoing the operation. You will be able to determine this with your doctor during your pre-operative consultation. Your incisions will be stitched and bandaged. It's very important to follow your doctor's instructions on properly caring for the stitches and bandage in the days following surgery.

 

Too Much Skin
Just like the platysmaplasty, your surgeon will make similar incisions for a cervicoplasty, trimming parts of the skin and lifting it into place. It will be secured with tissue glue or stitches. The cervicoplasty can be completed in about two to four hours, depending on the complexity of your procedure. Again, your anesthesia will depend on your own personal comfort level. Your surgeon will fit you with a compression bandage that you will have to wear for at least one week, unless instructed otherwise. It's important to follow his or her instructions to ensure proper recovery.

 

After your treatment you may be groggy from the anesthetic and or oral medications and probably won't remember much of the first day or two.  You will have to take it easy and sleep on two pillows to keep your head elevated for about 14 days - or however long your surgeon suggests.  A recliner is the best for this. Please keep your head and neck still. Don't turn your head from side to side.  Move your whole body, if you must move.  When you wake up you will notice that your lower face and neck will look even more swollen in the first 3 days.  You won't usually be extremely swollen until late that night or the next day and then the third is by far usually the worst.  But, as the days go on the swelling will dissipate.  There may be a lot of bruising, but this will go away, as well. Bruising and swelling are a normal occurrence in most surgeries. 

 

Although any discomfort should be alleviated by your prescribed pain medication if you have excessive pain, redness, pus or other symptoms that do not appear normal, contact your surgeon immediately!  Take your temperature regularly.  An elevated temperature could mean an infection.  Take those antibiotics on time.  Also, don't forget if you are a female taking birth control pills that some antibiotics can interfere so in the event that you do have relations, use another form of protection as well. Your back will more than likely cramp up from not being able to lie completely stretched out and flat on your back so some patients prefer heating pads or hot water bottles.  Remember not to sleep while using any of these devices.  This can result in severe burns - especially if you are heavily medicated and don't feel the heat or pain.
