A Neck Lift to Rejuvenate Your Appearance
If you have been putting up with people thinking you are older than you are then perhaps you are in need of a neck lift. Find a certified plastic surgeon to give you a new look.
There is something about having excess sagging skin or fat that can add years to you. If you find that people think you are older than you are,
it can be frustrating. Do not wait until someone asks if you are your husband's mother; get something done about it. A neck lift with or without other procedures may be just what you need to look your age or younger again.
A neck lift is not something to jump into as it is a surgery and does have a recovery that does require some suggested bed rest and extra help because it is suggested that the neck and the upper body not be moved much during recovery.
The surgery entails the use of anesthesia. You will either have general or local probably depending on your preference and situation. You will also have around 3 incisions. One incision will be below your chin, and then you may have one either in front of your ear or behind it on both sides. During the surgery, the surgeon will get rid of excess skin and fat and tighten the muscles of the area. They may use liposuction as a means to get rid of the fat. The surgeon then will finish the surgery by replacing the skin and sewing it closed.
Before choosing to have a neck lift you should consult with a plastic surgeon. He or she should be able to tell you whether you are a good candidate by examining the area of concern and also by talking to you about your medical history. Some health problems could be cause to not have a neck lift, but the plastic surgeon should be able to tell you if it is.
They will likely also want to discuss your expectations for the surgery. If you have too high of expectations about having this procedure then it may be wise to get your expectations where they need to be before having a surgery. Not everyone's body responds the same way to surgeries, so to think you will look like a model or celebrity; this is an expectation you should not be having. There is something that affects the outcome of surgeries like this and that is the elasticity of your skin. Age, smoking, and sun damage will negatively affect your skin's elasticity and will likely negatively affect the outcome of your surgery.
After consulting with a doctor and seeing things in the right light, hopefully you are ready to follow through with the procedure. If you choose to do so, make sure that it will not put you in debt for a long period of time. If you cannot afford the money up front, see if a plastic surgeon offers financing so that you can fit the payments into your budget.
