Neck Lift Procedure in Turkey

What is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift, also known as a lower rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that enhances the appearance of the neck by tightening loose skin, removing excess fat, and refining the contours of the jawline. This procedure is ideal for individuals seeking to address sagging skin, deep wrinkles, and loss of definition in the neck and chin areas.

The Neck Lift Process

At TrustCare, we prioritize your safety, comfort, and results. Here's what you can expect from your neck lift journey:

Consultation: Your experience begins with a thorough consultation where we assess your facial structure, skin condition, and aesthetic goals. During this time, we'll answer any questions you have and design a personalized treatment plan.

Pre-Surgery Preparation: Before the procedure, you'll be provided with detailed instructions on how to prepare. This may include avoiding certain medications, stopping smoking, and arranging post-surgical transportation.

The Procedure:

Anesthesia: The surgery typically begins with administering general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation to ensure you are comfortable throughout the procedure.

Incisions: Incisions are strategically placed behind the ears and under the chin to minimize visible scarring. Through these small incisions, excess fat is removed, muscles are tightened, and the skin is repositioned for a smoother, more youthful look.

Reshaping and Contouring: The surgeon will carefully contour the neck and jawline to ensure natural-looking results.

Closure: Incisions are closed with sutures or skin adhesives. In some cases, a small drainage tube may be placed to prevent fluid buildup.

Duration: The neck lift procedure generally takes 2-3 hours, depending on the complexity of the case. It is often performed as an outpatient surgery, so you can return home the same day.

Aftercare and Recovery

Recovery is an essential part of achieving optimal results. Our team will guide you through every step of your post-surgery journey to ensure a smooth and safe recovery:

Post-Operative Care:

Bandaging and Compression Garments: After surgery, your neck will be bandaged, and you may need to wear a compression garment for the first few days to minimize swelling and support healing.

Drainage: If a drainage tube is used, it will typically be removed within 1-2 days after surgery.

Sutures Removal: Stitches are usually removed within 7-10 days.

Healing Timeline:

First Week: You can expect some swelling, bruising, and tightness, which will gradually improve. You’ll need to rest and avoid strenuous activities during this period.

2-3 Weeks: Most patients feel comfortable resuming light activities within two weeks. Visible swelling and bruising should decrease significantly by this time.

Full Recovery: Final results become more apparent after about 4-6 weeks, though subtle changes can continue for several months as your body fully heals.

Aftercare Tips:

Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect your neck from the sun, as UV rays can interfere with the healing process and worsen scars.

Elevate Your Head: Sleeping with your head elevated during the first few weeks helps reduce swelling.

Follow-Up Appointments: Attend all scheduled follow-up visits to monitor your healing progress and ensure the best possible results.
