Answer: Neck Sagging 5 Years After Neck Lift On average the surgical #results last between 4 and 7 years. However, people vary so much from one another, an exact time is difficult to provide. If you wish, you may repeat the procedure at that time. There is always an improvement compared to not having the procedure as the #aging process continues to progress throughout the future. Patients, with very loose skin will occasionally experience sagging earlier and it may be seen as soon as one year later. Such may require a secondary procedure to tighten the loose skin. Consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in #neck lift procedures is important to ensure you are receiving the best advice, care, and surgical experience possible.

Answer: Neck Lifts Last About Five Years; Facelifts Last 10 It is not unusual to find noticeable sagging in the neck five years after a neck lift. Each patient responds differently. Longevity also depends on how vigilant they are about subsequent sun avoidance and protection.

Answer: Facial Aging A facelift / necklift is an excellent operation to lift the soft tissues of the face and neck, tighten the underlying muscle, and remove the excess saggy skin. Aging continues after surgery, however, so most patients will see some recurrence of skin laxity and tissue decent, as they get older - sooner or later. The amount of correction and longevity of the result are dependent on many factors including the extent of the surgery, patient age, previous surgery in the area, sun exposure, smoking, and genetics. In your case, you have the added burden of having a connective tissue disorder that will accelerate the process of aging. A revision lift is usually possible, however, you will have to weight the pros and cons given you previous experience and you new diagnosis. Consultation with a surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery would be the next best step. See the link below for more info.

Answer: Neck Lift Thank you for your question. I am glad to hear that your original neck lift worked for some time. Should you choose to move forward with neck surgery, you may be able to utilize your experience from your previous surgery to hopefully prolong this surgery and maintain an improved neck line for longer. Please post pictures so that we can let you know how to piggyback off the initial surgery. We perform the laser-assisted weekend necklift for phenomenal results, and are able to carve out one of the three advanced techniques utilized (liposculpture, neck lifting, and laser resurfacing) in revision surgeries. I suggest that you consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.Best wishes,
