In an age of cosmetic supremacy over most fields of elective surgery, the facelift has been amongst the most popular treatments that patients have chosen. A little known fact is that a necklift does many of the same things as a facelift, as it is carried out as one procedure in collaboration with the facelift. To gain a better insight on the necklift, we visited Dr. Simon Ourian at the prestigious Epione medical spa in Beverly Hills, CA. The following are a few choice words he gave us regarding the procedure.



A necklift is carried out in conjunction with a facelift. It is clear that signs of aging melt down past your jawbone and to your neck. Wrinkles and sagging are spread throughout this area, causing an unsightly and extremely aged look. After the primary incisions of the facelift are made, the doctor may proceed down to the neck if the treatment is solely concerned on the necklift. The whole point of the necklift is to recreate the natural muscle structure that is directly beneath the chin. This is done in order to produce an end product where there is a firm facial structure and tightening of any sagging areas along the facial area.

The procedure helps to implement natural placing of the skin and soft tissue that resides on the face and neck. The face and neck then look much more youthful; providing a fresher resemblance for the patient as a whole. Most sagging or wrinkling that may have previously been a vital component of the patient's face structure usually becomes obscure, if at all noticeable, after the procedure.

The muscle layers beneath the face and neck are tightened and lifted up higher in order to accent the jaw line, while re-establishing a youthful appearance for your cheeks. The necklift removes excess fat from beneath the skin of your problem areas. These deposits of excess fat lead to an unsightly area that lacks a defined, shapely structure. Therefore, when we remove these deposits of fat that are detrimental to your facial and neck structure, the improvement of structure is increased.

Although this surgery is used to revitalize major facial structure flaws, it does not eliminate fine wrinkles. However, these wrinkles can easily be taken care of with our other procedures, such as Coolaser, one of Epione's most highly requested procedures.

Healing time and price range rely solely on the extent of the procedure and number of treatments required. Although results vary as well, they typically last for approximately six months. To learn about our special packages, call 877-444-0918 today.
