How to Perform?

The incision made behind the ear is extended to the scalp like face lift operation. The neck is stretched upwards in a predetermined manner. Excess skin is removed and sewing is performed successfully.

After the operation, the stretched neck wrinkles are removed and the chin angle is clarified and the person has a younger appearance. The fact that the cut performed in the surgery starts from the back of the ear ensures that there is no visible trace.

In some cases it may be necessary to recover the jowl area. In this case, the patient’s condition and expectations are taken into consideration.

If necessary, it is possible to successfully remove the existing fats and carry out the sewing process by entering the waste area. Liposuction may also be preferred by doctors in this case.

Whether or not any application to the other parts of the face will be performed during the neck lift operation is determined according to the patient’s condition and expectations. If other operations are going to perform on the face, the operation takes about five hours.

The drain placed during the neck liftsurgery is taken one day after the surgery. This is to prevent the accumulation of fluid in the region behind the ear.

People can be discharged after the second day. There is no harm in taking a shower two days after surgery.

People should not worry if there is numbness in the neck area. Although this situation is quite normal, it can pass in a short time. Performing ice pack after surgery is effective in accelerating the healing process.

People should avoid work which require physical force. In particular, the neck area should be protected against possible impacts and traumas.

People should consider that the area is very sensitive. It is very important to keep the region hygienic to prevent infection.

During the first month after surgery, people should avoid sauna and steam bath. If swelling and edema occur in the area, people do not need to apply for any additional application.

What are the Risks of the Operation?

Bleeding and infection, which are likely to be seen in all operations, are among the risks of neck lift surgery. These risks can occur very rarely.

If bleeding occurs during the operation, drainage treatment or blood transfusion is applied by the doctor without wasting time. To reduce the risk of hemorrhage, the person should stop taking drugs such as aspirin until two weeks before the surgery.

Peoplewho has hypertension may cause bleeding risk during or after surgery. To reduce the risk of hemorrhage during surgery, the person should stop taking drugs such as aspirin until two weeks prior to surgery.

These factors are smoking and infections. It is possible to perform additional treatment in cases where the person has a sign that will be uncomfortable.

Hair loss is likely to occur in the area where the hair is pulled.In rare cases, nerve damage may occur. The nerves that can be damaged include the motor and sensory nerves. As a result, weakness or loss may occur in the movements performed in the percentage.

This situation, which causes the movements in the face not to be performed temporarily or permanently, may adversely affect people’s daily life. However, these risks emerge very rarely with the effective use of developing technologies in the health sector.

People should not forget that it is not possible to stop aging in the neck area by neck lift surgery. For this reason, people should be aware of the risk that sagging may occur rarely in cases such as age progression, weight gain and stay long time under sunshine.

The operation can be repeated successfully if necessary. Thus, people do not need to worry about these risks. It should be kept in mind that the surgery performed by a doctor in his/her field in a fully equipped health facility is very effective in reducing the risks of surgery.
