For some people, a laser liposuction with skin tightening is not enough to return the muscles and skin on their necks to a smooth and youthful appearance. If you are in this situation, you are encouraged to contact the new patient hotline at the Center for Facial Surgery in Langhorne, Pennsylvania. All facial surgeries at our office are performed by Dr. Aaron Shapiro, who is a board certified medical doctor in facial plastic surgery. Dr. Shapiro has more than 20 years of experience performing facial surgeries of all kinds. During your consultation with Dr. Shapiro, he will listen to your treatment goals and explain your various options.
Mini Neck Lift
The mini neck lift is appropriate for men and women who have just begun to show signs of aging in their necks. Around the age of 40, many people notice that they have unattractive fatty deposits, sagging skin and wrinkles on their neck. The mini neck lift is a simple procedure designed to erase these early signs of aging for Langhorne, PA residents. Dr. Shapiro makes tiny incisions in the troublesome areas and gently pulls the skin back into place.
Silhouette Neck Lift
People who have more extensive sagging skin in their cheeks and neck in the Langhorne, PA area can benefit from a silhouette neck lift. For this procedure, Dr. Shapiro inserts a specialized thread into the upper side portion of your head and through the cheek area. You are given a local anesthetic before the procedure starts. By moving the thread, Dr. Shapiro tightens up your jowl area, neck and cheeks. The entire process takes approximately 45 minutes to complete. Within two days, you can return to normal activities. Before the silhouette neck lift was invented, this same procedure required a hospital stay and a long recovery period.
Combination Neck Lift
In this procedure, Dr. Shapiro combines the use of the silhouette threads with the surgical neck lift to obtain results that can withstand the normal demands of aging. You are welcome to view before and after photos in our office to help you and Dr. Shapiro choose the right type of neck lift for you.
