It means "neck lift" or "neck aesthetics", which is a procedure applied to remove the signs of aging in the neck area. This procedure aims to re-tighten the neck skin and muscles that show signs of sagging and loosening. Deep Plane Neck Lift is a preferred aesthetic surgery procedure to correct the following problems that usually occur with the aging process.
Sagging skin: Aging causes a decrease in skin elasticity and can lead to sagging skin in the neck area. Double chin or fat accumulation in the neck area: Fat accumulation can cause double chin formation or significant excess fat in the neck area. Necklines: With the aging process, the muscles in the neck area may relax and vertical lines called neck bands may form. The Deep Plane Neck Lift procedure usually includes the following steps:
Anesthesia: General anesthesia or local anesthesia is generally preferred for the comfort of the patient.
Incisions: The plastic surgeon usually makes an incision starting from behind the ear and extending to the neck area. Sometimes an additional incision can be made under the chin.
Skin lifting and tightening: The surgeon lifts and pulls back sagging skin in the neck area. This allows the skin to be tightened for a firmer appearance.
Liposuction: If there is fat accumulation in the chin or neck area, the surgeon can reduce the fat tissue with the liposuction method.
Muscle re-tightening: The surgeon can reposition and tighten the muscles in the neck area.
Recovery: In the post-operative period, the patient may need to use a specially designed bandage or neck wrap. Swelling, bruising and discomfort may occur during the healing process.
The
Deep Plane Neck Lift procedure can be combined with other aesthetic
surgical procedures depending on the person's request and the
surgeon's evaluation. For example, it can be done in conjunction with
procedures such as a facelift, eyelid surgery or botox.
