Necklift vs. Biltmore lift?

Is very common for plastic surgeons to come up with a marketing name for their surgical procedures. It is very rare that there is anything revolutionary or unique with these fancy names for necklace and facelifts. Facial plastic surgery, facelifts, and neck lift are based on certain fundamental principles and techniques. The most important decision is to choose a surgeon that you believe is qualified and will be able to get you wonderful results in a safe manner. I would not choose a surgeon based on the name of the procedure.The only person that truly knows what a Biltmore lift is is the surgeon that is performing the procedure. In this case I cannot explain the difference between a Biltmore lift and other types of necklace surgeries because a Biltmore lift is not a defined medical term.I hope this helps

I suggest you consult a board certified facial plastic surgeon
because the board certified credential ensures you receive the highest quality knowledge, treatment, care and skill available. It may be difficult for past, present and future patients to keep up on recent technological innovations and new procedural techniques. I am attaching a video that details one of the newest technological and procedural advancements to treat the neck.

Neck lift is the medical term for the plastic surgery procedure that reshapes the neck to give a rejuvenated look.Several practitioners use marketing names that include their practice name, their last names, a trademarked name, etc. to promote their business from the marketing stand point. Patients interested in determining what is involved in a surgical procedure that is being promoted with a marketing name rather than its medical term should call or make an appointment with that office to determine the details about the procedure.

Biltmore lift is only a marketing scheme to be able to differentiate themselves from the standard facelift when in reality they are offering the same procedure. The most important thisng is to make sure that the surgeon is board certified and that you feel confident when you consult with him/her.Hope this helps,Dr. Gus Diaz

In our practice, a neck lift involves removal of fatty deposits above and below the platysma muscle, and a platysma plasty. This procedure is performed on patient's less than 50 years of age. When patients are older than 50 and have excess and loose skin in the neck, a lower face and neck lift procedure is required. For more information and many examples of both procedures, please see the link  and the video below
