What if you could change the appearance of your neck, chin and jawline with a quick procedure that you can recover from over a weekend? That is the goal of a “weekend” neck lift. This is a minimally invasive cosmetic surgery to help improve the appearance of a turkey neck, double-chin or sagging neck skin without the need for a complete neck lift.
Who Can Benefit from a Weekend Neck Lift?
The weekend neck lift is designed to help those who have excess skin or fat under the chin and in the neck area. By removing fat deposit and tightening the skin, the chin and jaw are more defined. Plus, the sagging skin on the neck that is equated with a turnkey gobble can be tightened. While it is not as extensive as a complete neck lift, it can drastically improve the appearance in this area. Some of the people who can benefit from a weekend neck lift include:
- Those wanting to remove a double chin
- Men wanting a more defined jaw line (this can be combined with a chin augmentation)
- Those with sagging or wrinkled neck skin
- Those with a lack of definition around their chin
The difference between a weekend neck lift and a complete neck lift is the type of incisions and anesthesia used. The weekend neck lift is performed under local anesthesia and only takes about an hour to complete. The incision is small, creating less swelling and healing time compared to more extensive surgically techniques used in a complete neck lift. The procedure can be different for each patient, depending on the issues being addressed, but it usually involves some form of liposuction.
If you want a younger or more svelte chin and neck, consider a weekend neck lift. Find a local plastic surgeon that offers this less invasive procedure for limited downtime and recovery.
