Neck lift surgery is a cosmetic procedure that offers a rejuvenated look to the neck which may have begun to sag due to aging, stress or environmental factors. The unfortunately named, “turkey neck” is a common aesthetic issue that may arrive as time passes. Toronto Plastic Surgeon Dr. Daniel Martin has performed a vast number of neck lifts which offer his patients a more youthful and pleasant appearance. He also offers a selection of other facial rejuvenation procedures, including eyelid surgery, facelift, and brow lift in Toronto.
A neck lift procedure may consist of all or a combination of these three methods.
- Cervicoplasty, which is the process of removing excess skin that has been produced over time.
- Platysmaplasty, which removes and tightens the neck muscles.
- Liposuction, which is the reduction and elimination of excess fat under the skin.
Toronto Cosmetic Surgeon, Dr. Daniel Martin, will guide you through the process of determining which methods are best suited for you. All of Dr. Martin’s Toronto plastic surgery patients are different and thus require customized treatment specific to them. The goal of the procedure is always to create a healthy natural outcome, and this comes with experience and determining which specific procedures apply to each situation.
During the initial consultation, Dr. Martin will speak with you regarding your goals and wants and discuss with you in detail the best course of action for your procedure. Skin elasticity, fat deposits, muscle strength and more will all be assessed followed by a recommendation. This may come as a single neck lift procedure, or possibly as a part of a greater process, which may include facelift, brow lift, and eyelid procedures as well.
