Necklift in Newport Beach and Beverly Hills

Necklift Newport BeachOver time, the neck begins to age resulting in lipodystrophy, platysmal bands (lateral and medial), and nasolabial jowls that extend into the neck. There are a variety of procedures able to rejuvenate the neck to restore a more youthful appearance and firmer contour. These include the use of Botox, neck liposuction, cervical lipectomy, submentoplasty, and necklift surgery. Dr. Batniji has extensive knowledge of the neck anatomy and the many different techniques available and is able to rejuvenate the neck to provide beautiful, natural, long-lasting results.

Neck rejuvenation procedures are appropriate for healthy men and women who have reasonable expectations for improving an aging neck. Non-smokers are preferred for these procedures, since smoking causes a decline in skin elasticity and can lead to complications and a prolonged healing process. Smokers must quit at least two weeks before the surgery date and must avoid smoking during the healing process.

Individuals with excess fat without sagging skin may be candidates for neck liposuction alone, whereas those with both excess fat and sagging skin may be candidates for a necklift. If jowls are present or if the patients is seeking more definition in the jawline, a facelift may be most appropriate.

Dr. Batniji is located in Newport Beach California. He is affiliated with numerous accredited surgery centers and hospitals throughout Southern California, including the Newport Beach Surgery Center and Hoag Hospital. Surgical times for neck rejuvenation procedures will depend on the technique used but may range anywhere from thirty minutes to two hours. Intravenous sedation with local anesthesia or general anesthesia may be used.

I can’t thank you enough for everything. It was a pleasure to be treated by a physician such as yourself. I have never had the breathing capabilities in my life time that I have had in the past couple hours since seeing you. I will always be grateful for what you have done for me. Thanks again I will see you soon.

Necklift Results

Newport Beach Necklift | Orange County Neck lift

Also known as platysmaplasty, the necklift is a procedure which tightens the neck muscle to restore a more youthful neck contour. The necklift can provide more lasting treatment of the vertical neck bands caused by the platysma muscle while also treating skin laxity in the neck.

The recovery after neck rejuvenation procedures will vary according to the particular technique used. Some degree of swelling and bruising may result, and any discomfort that you experience can be treated with medication. Any dressings applied to the neck are removed the next day then replaced by another dressing that is worn for approximately one week. Drains may be used to collect fluid if necessary. Stitches are removed after one week, at which time you will be shown how to apply special makeup to camouflage any bruising or discoloration that remains. Within seven to ten days, you should feel well enough to resume work and most non-strenuous activities, though you will be advised to postpone exercise and strenuous activities for at least three to four weeks.

Orange County Neck Botox

Botox injections can be used to temporarily improve the appearance of vertical bands in the neck. These bands are caused by the platysma neck muscle and Botox works by reducing the activity of this muscle. The procedure is a simple, quick one that is performed in Dr. Batniji’s office and there is no downtime. However, Botox cannot improve excess skin or fullness in the neck and results last an average of three to four months.

Neck Liposuction in Newport Beach

Liposuction can be performed in the neck area to improve fullness resulting from excess tissue. This may be a result of heredity or age. The result is a more sculpted, better defined neck contour.

This fat-reduction technique involves administering anesthesia to numb the area and then creating a very small incision in the target region. A surgical tool called a cannula – a thin tube with a sharp end – is inserted into the incision.

The cannula is used to loosen stubborn fat cells from the surrounding tissues. Medical suction is used to remove these cells from the neck through the cannula. The cannula is then taken out, and the area is dressed to prevent infection.

Liposuction of the neck can be performed separately or in conjunction with other procedures. For instance, it is commonly combined with the necklift, facelift and rhinoplasty.

Though we can’t make general recommendations for skin care based on the procedures because it is very patient-dependent, all patients of ours will receive analysis and individualized skincare recommendations.

Cervical Lipectomy

For those with an excess of fatty tissue in the central region of the neck, cervical lipectomy is ideal. A small incision is made just beneath the neck. Cervical lipectomy is often performed with neck liposuction or with platysmaplasty.

Submentoplasty

Submentoplasty is appropriate for treating a limited amount of skin laxity in the neck. It incorporates neck liposuction, cervical lipectomy and platysmaplasty and is performed with a well-concealed T-shaped incision beneath the chin.

NECKLIFT COST

The cost of a necklift surgery and other neck rejuvenation procedures will depend on several factors. Among these factors are the type of anesthesia administered and the exact techniques chosen. Additionally, price is affected by the overall time required to perform the procedure.
