I am 55 years old and would like to know which procedure is best for treating a turkey neck with the least amount of downtime?
Answer: Cervicoplasty for turkey neck with almost no "downtime". If you are a suitable candidate, a necklift might be the best solution for you. This operation fixes the muscles in the neck, removes escess fat, and correct turkey neck with minimum downtime. Patients may go about their daily activities the next day. The operation is outpatient, takes about an hour or so, and delivers predictably good results in the properly selected patient.

Answer: Mini Facelift & Mini neck lift -- FaceTite RF for internal skin tightening + Neck Liposuction for definition/contouring FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime. Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure. I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: About Neck Lift Recovery and Healing Although, recovery from a surgical #neck lift varies from person to person, patients are generally presentable within three weeks from surgery. Generally, it will take approximately 7-10 days for the early healing in which many patients feel comfortable being in public at this stage. Most #bruising is low on the neck and may easily be covered by clothing. Also, wearing a #compression garment may be suggested the first week and then nightly for up to six weeks.The #incision scars from a neck lift can typically be hidden well and are not located within eye level to be immediately noticed. These #scars “mature” within six to twelve months from the surgery date. The term mature implies they will soften and fade away. During this time, the rejuvenating effects of the neck #lift will become most obvious and the neck feels the most normal (ex. little discomfort, soft, normal sensation, no more post-op firmness). Following this stage, the true restorative effects of your #necklift result will be apparent. At any time during your healing, you have certain concerns about the #healing process, it is recommended to call your board-certified surgeon or their medical staff and discuss those #concerns.

Answer: Necklift under local anaesthetic Thank you for your question. Surgical approach would be the only solution via neck lift and tightening procedure. This involves the tightening of the platysma muscle, which will require a small incision under the chin away from direct view to gain access to the front edge of the muscles on the neck; the are sutured together with permanent stitches. The excess skin is removed creating a smooth and contoured appearance.This procedure can be performed under local anaesthetic and does not require any drains or bandages. This significantly reduces the downtime and recovery period. Neck rejuvenation procedures are very common and our cosmetic surgeons will assess and advise you on what you may require to achieve the look you are after. Often the neck rejuvenation procedures can be combined with facelift surgery. Please make sure you find a reputable and qualified plastic surgeon who can assess you properly to give you a realistic idea of what outcome you can achieve. All The Best

Answer: Neck Lift Is Best Fix for Turkey Neck There are really no satisfying nonsurgical remedies for “turkey neck.” The loosening of the platysmal muscle with subsequent skin sagging respond best to a neck lift with platysma tightening. You will have a dressing for one week. You can return to unstrenuous activity at that time. Full recovery will take 1 to 2 weeks depending on your healing and the aggressiveness of the surgery. The results can last for up to 10 years. I hope this helps.

Answer: Laser Assisted Weekend Facelift It is possible that you may be a candidate for what I have termed, "The Laser Assisted Weekend Necklift:" It is a minimally invasive procedure and the downtown is generally 2-3 days. Cervicofacial Liposculpture is first employed to contour the unfavorable fatty changes seen in the face and neck as time passes by, such as the ‘Turkey neck’ and ‘double chin’.Careful attention is then turned to tightening the neck muscles and eliminating neck bands. Finally, I employ laser technology to ‘resurface’ the underside of the neck skin, thereby ‘shrinkwrapping’ the skin of the neck restoring a youthful contour.A consultation with a board certified facial plastic surgeon will help determine which procedures will provide the best results for you.
