New York Neck Lift

Have you been considering a face lift or a neck lift? New York plastic surgeon Kenneth O. Rothaus, M.D. is a great choice for this procedure!

As an alumnus of Harvard Medical School and a specialist in facial rejuvenation, this board certified surgeon is well-qualified to perform this, or any of the several other cosmetic facial procedures, offered at his surgical center in New York.

Is a Neck Lift Right For Me?

If you have unwanted skin or fat on your neck, then it might be! New York brow lift patients sometimes find that coupling the brow lift with this lower face lift can give them the results they desire without the need for a full facelift.

Some of the most common reasons people have a neck lift, also known as plastysmaplasty, is to rid themselves of:

• Excess fat
• Excess skin
• The "turkey wattle"

The skin of the face and neck is delicate, and sometimes after a significant weight loss, this skin might not firm up again. New York face lift patients will often opt for neck lift surgery in addition to their face lift, for a complete rejuvenation package.

Tell me about the procedure!

First, any excess fat will be removed using liposuction of the neck. If the patient's skin retains enough elasticity, sometimes this will be enough. If not, then the muscles of the neck can be tightened and the excess skin removed. Scarring is inconspicuous and typically fades quickly.
