Neck Lift Surgery (Platysmaplasty)

Neck Lift Surgery in Pune (Platysmaplasty)

If the eyes are the first place we begin to show our age, then the neck is unarguably the second. One of the most common problems that develop in the chin and neck area’s underside is the so-called “turkey gobbler deformity.” Here, the skin becomes extremely lax, soft, and slack. A small amount of fat accumulates under this loose skin, and the thin muscle layer beneath it forms cord-like structures, also known as “platysmal bands.”

A neck lift surgery in pune (platysmaplasty) is a facial cosmetic procedure that tightens the skin and the underlying muscles to lift the neck as well as improve and sharpen the contour of the jawline.

  • There is no ideal age for neck-lift surgery. Candidates may range from teenagers to octogenarians.
  • Sagging of the neck may be due to age but may also result from significant weight loss or simple heredity.
  • Those who have sagging or wrinkling of the neck and a loss of separation between the neck and the chin can be the best candidates for a neck lift procedure.

The procedure may be performed under local anesthesia or general anesthesia but usually does not involve an overnight stay. Neck lift surgery in pune may be performed using a variety of techniques, depending on the need. Three possible neck-lift procedures may include:

Liposuction:
If excess fat needs to be removed, liposuction is typically performed first. An incision will be made below the chin to remove the excess fat deposits. The fat deposits will be removed by inserting a small cannula (a hollow tube with an opening near its blunt end) beneath the skin and into the fatty tissue.

Cervicoplasty:
During a cervicoplasty procedure, an incision is made under your chin and behind the ears (or possibly in just one of these locations). The surgeon will then cut back and lift the skin, secured with permanent sutures or a special type of permanent adhesive glue. An elastic bandage will be applied to your neck and head.

Platysmaplasty:
The platysmaplasty procedure is performed to reduce the banded appearance of the neck. During the procedure, incisions will be made under the chin or behind the ears, or both. The surgeon will then insert a tiny instrument to either remove a portion of specific neck muscles or realign them, which will tighten the middle area of the neck. The doctor will permanently stitch areas of the muscles to clasp them in the best position.

Results may also be enhanced by using Botox injections or non-surgical skin tightening using lasers or radio-frequency technology.

The procedures involved in a neck-lift may also be performed endoscopically. For an endoscopic neck-lift, an instrument visually guides the surgeon through the process. The advantages of an endoscopic procedure may include a smaller incision, no general anesthesia, reduced bruising, and faster recovery.

What Can You Expect While Recovering From Your Neck Lift Surgery?

  • After a neck lift surgery in pune, most patients return home that evening.
  • Ice packs are placed in and around the neck, chest, and face area.
  • The bandages are removed the following morning at the clinic. A support neck and chin dressing are worn continuously for approximately
    5-7 days and every night for 4-6 weeks.
  • Dr. Sanghvi may suggest using two pillows when you sleep.
  • One can return to social activity after 4-5 days.
Though the neck lift is not a complete alternative for the facelift, between 60-90% of the improvement achieved with a facelift is accomplished with a simple neck lift. A neck lift involves lesser swelling and bruising than a facelift. Men particularly prefer the neck lift procedure since it avoids making an incision in front of the ear.
