WHAT IS A NECK LIFT (PLATYSMAPLASTY)?

If you have localized deposits of fat and/or muscle laxity in the anterior part of the neck (under the chin) you may wish to consider a neck lift.

WHAT IS INVOLVED?

  • The procedure is done as a day surgery using a general anaesthetic in our Surgical Centre.
  • The procedure typically entails an incision under the chin where the fat can be suctioned, the muscles tightened, and a small amount of skin may be removed.
  • Additional procedures such as a facelift or chin augmentation may enhance the results.

WHAT IS THE HEALING TIME?

  • Discomfort is light and easily handled with oral medication.
  • Swelling and bruising disappear over 10 - 14 days.
  • Patients are back to work in 2 to 3 weeks.
