Choose Tampa Surgical Arts for a Neck Lift That Will Unleash Your Beauty

Neck LiftDid you know that the neck is the place where we first begin to show signs of aging? It’s an often overlooked part of the visible aging process, as most people are concerned about wrinkles and lines on their face before they consider a sagging jawline. Truthfully, a neck lift is one of the best ways to improve the visible signs of aging, and it’s a procedure that can be expertly completed by Dr. Manik S. Bedi at Tampa Surgical Arts.

What Is a Neck Lift?

There are many different ways that the neck shows visible signs of aging. For example, excess fat or loose skin can result in jowls. Vertical bands and horizontal creases can also emerge, creating unwelcome contours in the neck. A neck lift is typically the best option to eliminate these signs of aging. The procedure involves removing any excess fat and tightening the skin by pulling it up and back. All incisions are made behind the ears, so they are easily hidden from view.

How Is a Neck Lift Performed?

A typical neck lift involves:

  • An incision being made, starting at the hairline and continuing down around the ear, ending right behind the ear
  • Fat from the neck and jowls being redistributed and sculpted into a more pleasing aesthetic
  • Tissue underneath the neck being repositioned and tightened to improve the contours of the neck
  • Trimming off any excess skin
  • Closing the incision with sutures or skin adhesives

What Are the Benefits of a Neck Lift?

One of the main benefits of a neck lift is that it refines the contours of the neck, eliminating excess skin and reducing the appearance of jowls or a turkey neck. Other benefits include:

  • Lessening the appearance of platysmal bands
  • Minimizing fine lines and wrinkles
  • Tightening underlying muscles
  • Providing natural-looking results that can last for a long time

What Are the Treatment Considerations for a Neck Lift?

Neck LiftThe best candidates for this procedure are individuals who have a strong bone structure and skin elasticity. It’s most appropriate for patients aged 40 to 60, although older patients have seen results with neck lifts.

Since a neck lift requires anesthesia, the patient should also be in good physical health and be able to undergo a procedure such as this.

When you come to Tampa Surgical Arts for a neck lift consultation, Dr. Bedi will discuss your aesthetic goals to understand what you’re looking to achieve from this procedure. From there, he can decide the approach that will best meet your needs, whether that involves a traditional neck lift, a limited incision neck lift, or a neck lift with chin liposuction.

What Should I Expect Pre- and Post-Neck Lift?

When you consult with Dr. Bedi about a neck lift procedure, you’ll be given instructions on what to do beforehand to prepare. Often, we ask that patients avoid over-the-counter medication, alcohol, and smoking, as these can interfere with the surgery and recovery process.

After the surgery, you’ll be bandaged under your chin and an elastic garment will be wrapped around your head. While the bandage can be removed the next day, the garment should continue to be worn at night for at least two weeks. You’ll experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort, and should expect to spend at least a week out of work. All of these symptoms should disappear within 10 days, usually sooner. If you were sutured, you’ll return to Tampa Surgical Arts in a week to have the sutures removed.

BBL UPTAKE

When fat is transfered to the buttock area, there are multiple factors that predict how much fat will take.

Some of them are: fat quality, overall health, tissue envelope, scar tissue, genetics, area of buttocks getting fat, etc..

The most challenging cases are for clients who have a low BMI.

***BEDIFINED + Healthy Lifestyle = Best Results

The key 🔑 is to make sure your entire surgery team COMMUNICATES what to expect after your BBL.

ANEMIA AND BEET JUICE

Body sculpting with or without fat transfer can cause you to feel tired/weak after your procedure.

This is because the amount of volume removed (up to 4L of fat) can cause a drop in your blood count.

We have a protocol for all clients to raise their blood levels (Hb and HCT) prior to their surgery and continue afterward.

Among some of the methods to help raise your blood count are: beet juice, B12, and Floradix.

Safety is our number one priority, so if your labs do not meet our fully accredited surgery center requirements, the procedure will be canceled or delayed.

FAT UPTAKE + HIP DIPS

The most challenging area to add volume is the hip dip area.

This also happens to be the most commonly requested area to be filled for both a round 1 and round 2 BBL.

In most clients, the skin envelope is very tight, and even in the best hands, a round 2 BBL might be required to achieve the desired look.

The fat uptake in the laterals is sometimes 50% or less, so this area often looks `too big` on the table but will settle after the healing phase is complete.

***Can you guess how much volume we added to the buttocks in the case? Comment below.

The key 🔑 is to make sure your entire surgery team COMMUNICATES what is needed to correct the hip dip area.

DEEP HIP DIPS

Clients that are very athletic and weight train will have the most challenging hip dips to treat.

In some cases, a round 2 BBL will achieve the best results.

It is worth repeating that hip dips are normal and will become more pronounced as the butt becomes more muscular.

This beautiful woman wanted a rounder and fuller buttocks.

ABS

The most challenging procedure (and also the most rewarding for me) is ab fine tuning.

The critical part of this total body procedure is a natural look, which means: smooth dynamic contours, tight skin, and of course hidden entry points.

Stealth entry points separate those who dabble in body sculpting from those who specialize in it.

***Let me know in the comments/poll if you can see her entry points. 🥷

SKINNY WAIST + HIPS

Having a skinny waist is a trend that likely will not go out of style.

To create the optical illusion of a super tiny waist involves contouring the abdominal area plus fat transfer to the laterals.

Some are blessed with underlying bone structure to take this result to the next level.

This beautiful client had her first BBL elsewhere and came to see me for more curves plus ab fine tuning.

As always, maintaining a healthy lifestyle will produce the best results.

EXTERNAL SKIN TIGHTENING

The newest technology we have been offering clients is a combination of internal and external skin tightening.

The best candidate for this is someone with mild skin laxity, minimal stretch marks, and someone who does not want a skin removal procedure.

This beautiful client had multiple children and stretch marks.

The redness on the abdomen is from collagen tightening; this is normal and fades quickly.

Most clients experience a few weeks of social downtime.

***Game changer technology! ⚡️

The key 🔑 is to make sure your entire surgery team COMMUNICATES what external skin tightening can do for you.
