Neck Lift Surgery at Cosmetic Surgery Partners London
Neck lift surgery, also known as lower rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to reduce the visible signs of ageing in the neck and lower facial areas, such as the jawline. At Cosmetic Surgery Partners we specialise in combining neck lifts with facelift surgery to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
The unmistakable signs of ageing, often requiring the expertise of a neck lift surgeon, frequently manifest as a sagging neck and loose skin beneath the chin. The muscle of the neck, referred to as the platysma, gradually weakens over the years, ultimately resulting in the development of prominent bands, lines, and wrinkles at the front and sides of the neck.
Simultaneously, the slackening of the supporting ligaments which connect facial skin and soft tissue to the jaw, contributes to sagging skin under the chin and leads to the appearance of ‘jowls’. Excess fat and skin can produce a double chin effect under the chin, while sun damage can further add to the unwanted consequences of the ageing process.
Fortunately, neck lift surgery has the potential to bring about a remarkable transformation in addressing these highly noticeable signs of ageing. This procedure can effectively lift and enhance the skin, giving you a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance. Fat can be reshaped or repositioned from the jowls and neck area. The underlying tissue beneath the neck skin is repositioned, often involving the tightening of the platysma muscle.An integral part of the Cosmetic Surgery Partners is our patient journey, and during this time we provide a psychological assessment as a crucial step before neck lift surgery. This essential step serves multiple purposes; it helps prepare the patient, enhance their cosmetic surgery journey and offers vital psychological support in cases where there may be any mental health concerns.
