Neck Lift Metairie, LA | Dr. Jules Walters - Board Certified Plastic Surgeon
About Neck Lift Surgery
Are you tired of wearing turtlenecks to hide loose neck skin? Dr. Jules Walters provides professional neck lift surgery in Metairie, LA, to address aging necklines. This facial procedure reshapes and tightens the area under the chin and along the neck, removing loose skin that creates a turkey neck or double chin appearance.
Ideal Neck Lift Candidates
Neck lift candidates typically experience visibly sagging and hanging skin in the neck region. Common causes include aging and significant weight loss. Loose neck skin can create an older, less confident appearance that often requires surgical intervention for correction.
Who Might Benefit from Neck Lift Surgery?
- Individuals with noticeable neck skin laxity
- Patients experiencing signs of aging in the neck area
- Those seeking to improve neck and chin contours
- Physically healthy adults at a stable weight
Surgical Technique for Neck Rejuvenation
Dr. Walters performs neck lift surgery using local anesthesia, IV sedation, or general anesthesia. Incisions are strategically placed near the ears and potentially beneath the chin to minimize visible scarring. The procedure may include liposuction to remove excess fat and precise skin tightening techniques.
Neck Lift Procedure Steps
- Anesthesia administration
- Strategic incision placement
- Fat removal via liposuction (if necessary)
- Skin excision and tissue tightening
- Precise suturing to minimize scarring
Recovery and Expectations
Following a neck lift, patients can expect mild swelling and potential bruising. Recovery typically involves rest and avoiding strenuous activities for several weeks. Most patients notice significant improvements in neck contour and appearance almost immediately after the procedure.
Post-Surgical Care Recommendations
- Rest and limited physical activity
- Wear loose, comfortable clothing
