Neck, Face & Brow Lift
What is Neck, Face and Brow Lift Surgery ?
Facelift, necklift, and brow lift surgeries are sought after by individuals looking to rejuvenate their facial appearance and address signs of aging. Candidates typically include:
- Face Lift Surgery: Suitable for individuals (typically 40s-70s) with sagging facial skin, deep creases, or jowls, addressing midface sagging, creases around the eyes, and folds around the mouth.
- Neck Lift Surgery: Ideal for those (40s-70s) with excess neck fat and loose skin, reducing “turkey neck” appearance, tightening skin, and addressing chin fat.
- Brow Lift Surgery: Best for individuals (40s-60s) with sagging brows or deep forehead lines, lifting brows, smoothing forehead wrinkles, and reducing frown lines.
The Procedure
Face, neck, and brow lift surgeries are procedures aimed at rejuvenating and enhancing facial contours. They typically involve the following steps:
Face Lift Surgery
- Incision: Starts at the temples, extending around the ear and sometimes into the hairline.
- Techniques: Includes SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System) lift to reposition deeper tissues.
- Duration: Takes several hours, performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation.
Neck Lift Surgery
- Incision: Made under the chin and around the ears, similar to a facelift but focused on the neck.
- Techniques: Involves tightening underlying muscles (platysmaplasty), removing excess skin, and liposuction as needed.
- Duration: Typically a few hours, under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation.
Brow Lift Surgery
- Incision: Ranges from traditional (across the scalp) to endoscopic (small incisions with camera assistance).
- Techniques: Lifts and secures forehead tissues for a youthful appearance.
- Duration: Generally shorter than a facelift or necklift, often done under local anesthesia with sedation.
Ideal Candidate for Neck, Face and Brow Lift
- Visible Signs of Aging: Individuals with sagging skin, deep creases, jowls, or loose skin in the face, neck, or brow area.
- Good Overall Health: Candidates should be in good physical health without any conditions that may impair healing.
- Non-Smokers: Ideal candidates are non-smokers or willing to quit temporarily, as smoking can impact recovery and results.
- Realistic Expectations: Candidates should have realistic goals and an understanding of the natural, rejuvenating results these procedures provide.
- Stable Skin Elasticity: Having good skin elasticity enhances the effectiveness of lifting and contouring in these procedures.
