How Long Will It Take for Neck Lift Incisions to Feel Less Lumpy? Does everyone get lumps on a neck lift incision? How common is it?

A: Six Months to Achieve Improvement in Scars after Neck Lift

It is common to have some minor lumpiness or small folds in the skin at the incisions behind the ear. This small amount of pleating associated with neck lift should resolve on its own. The scar should improve significantly over the first six months, and improve modestly over the next six months.

If you have a large lump you may have a suture granuloma or a hypertrophic scar--your surgeon will be able to treat these issues.

Would Necklift Surgery Compromise One Who Has a Cochlear Implant? I received a cochlear implant approx. 12 years earlier. I'm wondering if any surgeons would know if further surgery for neck or facelift would compromise the implant area?

A: Facelift cochlear implants

I have performed many facelifts with cochlear implants and it has never been a problem. I would urge you to discuss it with your surgeon to make sure they are comfortable with it.

Sincerely,

Dr Gartner

Neck Lift or Chin Implant to Improve Profile? I have always had a problem with my profile because while I am very in shape my neck line has always been really troubling. I feel like it slopes in a really ugly way. Would I need to get a Neck lift or a Chin implant?

A: A chin Implant can improve the appearance of your neck skin.

A Chin Implant can improve your neck skin be making it more taught. The dark profile photo you posted reveals a youthful appearance and a slightly underprojected chin. You should consult a board-certified facial plastic surgeon experienced in Chin Implant surgery to discuss what's right for you.

I hope this is helpful for you.
