Plastic Surgery In Beverly Hill ( Part five )

Neck Lift & Neck Liposuction Beverly Hills.

 

 

There is usually no ideal age for neck plastic surgery. Candidates may range from teenagers who need only neck liposuction to middle-aged individuals who may need just a slight tuck and ultimately to a fully aged neck that may need multiple modalities.  Dr.  has modified neck cosmetic procedures to less invasive levels so that no anesthesia is required.  Dr.  can perform all neck procedures under local anesthesia. He believes in avoiding the risk of anesthesia by all means possible.
Neck plastic surgery may be performed a variety of three procedures. Depending on the individual some may need only one modality and some other may need a combination of two or three of theses procedures.

Neck Liposuction

Candidate who only need neck liposuction have good neck elasticity and only excess fat to correct.  It's tempting to think that liposuction is the answer to everything, but its application in the face is limited. Draw a line from the ear canal down to the corner of the mouth; everything below this line is fair game. The most common area of fat removal is along the jaw line and under the chin.

Facial liposuction is sensational for people without much neck definition. Revealing the underlying structure of the jaw line makes the whole person look trimmer. Even if the patient has a weak chin, combining liposuction, to remove extra fatty tissue, with a chin implant provides wonderful results.

On of the coolest things about neck liposuction is that it's not just for younger people anymore. The most recent studies show that older individuals can benefit too. Previous assumptions about aging skin relaxation have proven untrue. The liposuction itself appears to create scar tissue which tightens up the overlying skin. There are limits, however. The proverbial "turkey neck" is proportionately more about loose skin than it is about fat. Only a facelift will provide significant improvement in tightening very loose neck skin.

Perhaps you're feeling guilty about not dieting those double chins away. The fat below the jaw line is impervious to all but the most sever weight loss (eg, cancer, weight loss and starvation). Therefore, liposuction is a good solution to what is usually an inherited trait. The buccal cheek pads (the soft part under the cheekbone and over the teeth), however, are much more responsive to weight loss and are best left alone.

There are some potential drawbacks to injudicious liposuction. When too much neck fat is removed, the lymphatic system is disrupted. This can result in prolonged (weeks to months) swelling and edema. Overly aggressive fat removal can also leave ridges and distortions of normal facial contours. The thin layer of fat in the face provides the padding underneath the skin. If too much is removed, the movement of jaw and cheek muscles may become disconcertingly apparent. This may be what makes John Cleese's facelift so odd looking (check out the difference between "A Fish Called Wanda" and "Fierce Creatures").

Another potential pitfall is injudicious removal of the buccal fat pad. It's sometimes requested in order to achieve a sculptural, high-fashion look. However, "as people age, they lose the fat in their face through atrophy. Look at Ingrid Bergman. Through the years her face became more sculptured and some think more interesting--sans surgery. "Youthful buccal fat removal can eventually result in a hollow, prematurely old look, so I reserve it only for people with very round faces," says Dr. Simoni.

Neck lift Beverly Hills

Best neck lift candidate are those who have sagging and/or wrinkling of the neck and a loss of separation between the neck and the chin or jaw.  Sagging of the neck skin may be due to age, but may also be a result of significant weight loss or simple heredity. Neck lift is a surgical procedure that restores a tight, youthful appearance to skin and muscles under the chin and neck area which have lost elasticity and exhibits banding. It also corrects the heavy neck or double chin.
The incisions hidden behind the ears. Dr Simoni will then lifts and tightens the sagging neck muscles and remove the extra skin. An elastic bandage will be applied to your neck and head.
Neck lifting can be performed in conjunction with a face lift, but may also be done as a stand-alone procedure.

Platysmaplasty

Platysmaplasty refers to tightening of loose neck muscle through a small incision under the chin.  Best candidates for platysmaplasty are the individuals with heavy loose neck bands.  Platysmaplasty is not commonly done as a stand-alone procedure but rather in conjunction with a face or neck lift
