Male Neck Lift Patient Video: Learn more about Dr. Jacono's approach to neck lift rejuvenation for men.
One of the more common cosmetic procedures that Dr. Jacono performs on men is called a neck rejuvenation. The reason this is such a popular procedure is that many men as they age their neck begins to sag because of loose skin. Combined with sagging muscles and fat deposits, this often begins to look like a sagging turkey neck. Even if you are in good shape, a droopy neck can give you the appearance of being overweight.
Dr. Jacono has been a pioneer in the field of facial plastic surgery and has been performing advanced less invasive techniques with minimized scarring for men, even for those men with short or cropped hairlines. He accomplishes this by using smaller incisions and telescopes. Dr. Jacono's after results leave men looking natural and about 10 to 15 years younger. Because Dr Jacono uses this less invasive surgical technique, less recovery time and healing are needed. This also allows for patients to return back to work much sooner.
Neck Lift for Men in New York
Dr. Jacono has 3 main approaches to creating a tighter, more athletic looking neck in men. One of the simpler approaches is performing a male neck liposuction to remove the fat deposits under the chin and define the jawline. Neck liposuction also helps tighten the skin for men in their 40s and early 50s who have some neck skin excess. For those with more hanging neck skin (usually in their 50s and 60s), a procedure called a direct neck lift and platysmaplasty can be performed. With this procedure, an incision is made under the neck to cut away the extra skin. Through this incision, Dr. Jacono tightens the loose vertical muscle bands in the neck which is a procedure called a platysmaplasty. This procedure has a short recovery time and most men can return to work in 4 to 5 days.
For a patient who wants to hide their incision further, a traditional male neck lift can be performed with an incision behind the ears. To limit the length of the incision lines he will use endoscopes. These endoscopes also allow him to tighten the neck muscles from behind the ears. The necklift procedure does not tighten the jowls that also occur with aging, so many men will opt for a deep plane facelift that can rejuvenate both the face and neck at the same time. Dr. Jacono approaches each patient's procedure uniquely based on their particular goals, but all of his results leave men looking masculine and refreshed.
