Frequently the first area of the face to
show signs of aging is the neck. Loose skin
begins to accumulate there and gives you the
look of waddle neck! Depending on the amount
of loose skin the neck area Dr. Shienbaum may
be able to perform a neck plication to
tighten the skin. A small incision is made
just under your chin. Any excess fatty
tissue is suctioned out and the loose skin is
pulled tight, trimmed and sutured. There is
very little discomfort or recovery. This
procedure is often done when a patient is
first noticing that gravity has taken it's
toll, and we are able to therefore postpone
a full facelift for a few years.
