Understanding Neck Lift Surgery

Neck lift surgery is a specialized cosmetic procedure designed to address loose, sagging skin and unwanted neck contours. Dr. Andre Y. Levesque performs this transformative surgery for patients seeking to eliminate the appearance of an aging neck, commonly referred to as a "turkey neck" or "double chin".

Ideal Candidates for Neck Lift

Candidates for neck lift surgery typically experience:

Visibly loose skin along the neckline
Skin sagging caused by aging, gravity, or weight fluctuations
Stable weight with localized neck skin concerns
Desire to improve neck and profile aesthetics

Surgical Technique

The neck lift procedure involves precise surgical techniques to restore a youthful neck contour. Dr. Levesque utilizes general anesthesia and strategically placed incisions around the ears and under the chin. The process may include:

Targeted liposuction to remove excess fat
Skin trimming and tightening
Contouring to achieve desired neck profile
Minimal scarring techniques

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect some initial swelling and bruising, which diminishes over time. Recovery involves rest and avoiding high-impact activities for several weeks. Most patients observe significant improvements in their neck's appearance, potentially reducing visual age by a decade.

Complementary Procedures

Dr. Levesque often recommends combining neck lift with complementary facial procedures like facelifts or chin implants to achieve comprehensive rejuvenation. During consultation, personalized treatment plans can be developed to address individual aesthetic goals.

Non-Surgical Alternatives

While non-surgical treatments can provide minimal improvements, a surgical neck lift remains the most effective method for removing loose, hanging skin and dramatically reshaping the neck's contours.
