Pre-Op 1. Check with your doctor what medications (particularly aspirin, ibuprofen, and aspirin containing medications) and supplements you should discontinue taking in the weeks leading up to your procedure. If you smoke, quit (at least for now), as smoking has been proven to exacerbate complications following surgery. 2. Fill your pain medication prescription and any other prescriptions...

I have a consultation with Dr Layt for a neck procedure in July. I've see great review about him but they mainly seem for breasts. I can't see any photos of neck lifts he has done. has anyone had a neck lift done by Dr Layet on the Gold Coast 

I am 57 y/o white female who is 1 Year post op from neck and face lift. The whole reason I wanted surgery was for grossly obvious Turkey neck. I wasn't happy with the neck lift because right away after the swelling subsided there was still some evidence of sagging skin. I went back and was told by the surgeon she took as much skin as she could. Now I am seeing excessively more noticeable skin...

Has anyone experienced pain on the Side of their head after neck lift surgery? I am 4 weeks post op, and still have scans behind my ears, intense pain on my right side of head, near incision, but more on my bone behind ear.

So I had ACDF surgery, levels C3-C5 on Feb 1, 2024. I am being grateful for a successful surgery by one of the most thoughtful medical professionals I've ever met.  Pain is almost completely gone and neck mobility is improving every day.  While a much more minor concern, the resulting scar is kind of "puckered" at the bottom.  I care less about the cosmetics than I do about...

Lost my voice 6days after surgery? Help been 4days

I also have a pulling sensation and soreness at my incision sights under my chin and behind my ears.  I've returned to the doctors office three times to address this issue and I'm told that, while my symptoms uncommon, it's not unheard of and it will lessen in time.  My scar is pretty ugly as well.  The doctor has injected the under chin scar twice with no improvement.  What can I do bes...

HelloCan someone recommend a board certified doctor in the central Florida area, that specializes in neck lifts?

Hi I had a face lift, necklift with lipo and a coronal brow lift. I love my results with the exception of my necklift. I have horizontal banding and lumps and bumps and discoloration. Also bonus is the raised scar under my chin- dr told me to massage it to flatten it out but nothing has helped it. Anyone have similar necklift results and a raised scar and how did you make it look better?

Hi there! I had a neck lift earlier this week and nobody knows except my wife (just don't want to face the judgement from others - at least not yet!). I have to go back to work a week today, so that will be 10 days after my procedure, and I'm just wondering if anyone had tips on the best way to hide the surgery... I'm terrified people will notice!Thank you!

Heard of any good surgeons in this area or have you, yourself had a good outcome. Please post them here.

I had a neck lift approximately 11 days to go and I noticed today that all of a sudden my lower neck into my chest area is very crinkly. Has anybody else had this problem and what did you do about it or did it just rectify itself??

Looking for dr recommendations in Dupage county IL or Chicagoland area

I have just recently found 2 disturbing reviews and 1 5 star review. I am conflicted and I’m trying to figure out what to do?

Hi there, I am looking into surgeons on GC and Brisbane (Australia) for a lower face and neck lift. One I am looking at is Dr Michael Szalay in Brisbane but he doesn't have one review on this site which seems strange. Is that a red flag do you think?I am impressed by his gallery and lots of great before/afters. The other surgeon I had a consult with only had a couple of before/afters and the...

My neck was extremely tight immediately after the operation and it still is. I find it difficult to turn my head left or right and nearly impossible to turn my head up. This week I noticed this creepy appearance at the front of my neck. It is quite noticeable when I make facial expressions such as chewing, swallowing and kissing. I first noticed it yesterday when I saw myself on my camera...

I don't know how to find the right doctor for a male neck lift. I've been to see a surgeon, with a great reputation, who tells me I don't really need the procedure. My profile bothers me and I would pay for advice from a surgeon who has done many mini or full neck lifts on men. I want to understand, in detail, the pros and cons of the procedure and I'd like to get the information from someone...

I have had two neck lift procedures already at least 3 years apart in time. I lost a total of 90# overhead course of the last 25 years. I am 51 now. The first neck lift, they did the tightening of my neck muscles and the incisions went behind my ears and into my scalp some. I still was not happy with the results d had a lot of extra skin so I had a second procedure two years ago wherein the...

I had a face/neck lift 1 yr 10 months ago. I had a correctional surgery 10 months ago on the neck for excess skin at each end of the chin scar. I STILL have the problem at each end of the chin scar, that I went for correctional surgery for 10 months ago. I wondered what a Cobra neck looked like, as I THINK I may have that problem. Can anyone post a good close up of what a cobra neck looks...
