Facelift Works Best When Paired with a Neck Lift

The facelift has long been an extremely popular surgical procedure here in the United States. In this surgery, a small incision is made and the excess fat is removed. Then, the skin is pulled over and literally folded into the incision hole. This procedure is often combined with liposuction, and can make the face look several years younger. This is incredibly important, because the face is often the first thing you see when you meet someone new for the first time. The face also shows very plain signs of aging.

Most people do not realize, however, that the overall appearance of the head area can be even further improved with a neck lift. This procedure is like a facelift, but as the name implies, is performed on the neck. Excess skin, which tends to hang in folds, is removed through a small, barely noticeable incision, and the excess fat is suctioned out.

A tight face, combined with a tight neck can literally subtract years of aging from your face. If you want to learn more about these procedures, contact your plastic surgeon today.
