One of the most common signs of aging is loose, excess skin in the lower face and neck area. As external factors take their toll on the quality of the skin, and your weight fluctuates, it becomes difficult for it to remain tight and rejuvenated. In order to regain a more youthful appearance, you may be interested in neck lift surgery. Austin plastic surgeon Kelly E. Tjelmeland, M.D., F.A.C.S. can perform this facial rejuvenating procedure at his practice, Meridian Plastic Surgery Center.
This procedure is designed to reduce the appearance of sagging skin in the neck area. It is often termed a “lower facelift” as it can be combined with a traditional facelift in order to provide optimal results. Using the Harmonic Scalpel’s cutting edge technology, Dr. Tjelmeland is able to provide patients with less bruising, swelling, inflammation, pain, and recovery. Typically, neck lift incisions are made beneath the chin to remove loose, excess skin and perform liposuction. Dr. Tjelmeland can tighten the neck muscles, suction stubborn fatty tissue, and trim away sagging skin in order to achieve a better-contoured neck line. This surgery is quite popular amongst those over 45 years old.
Other facial procedures that can be combined with a neck lift include eyelid lift surgery, browlift, and rhinoplasty. Austin, Temple, and San Marcos, TX neck lift patients will receive a personalized treatment plan that can be created when meeting with Dr. Tjelmeland.
If you would like to see examples of patient results, be sure to view before and after neck lift photos. You may also gain insight to the care provided at Meridian Plastic Surgery Center by reading patient testimonials.
