A youthful, refreshed appearance isn’t just about smoothing wrinkles or lifting sagging skin — it’s also about creating a beautiful, natural-looking balance for your whole face and body. Many people focus on just the area that bothers them most when considering plastic surgery. However, treating just one area can quickly lead to uneven results.
At Gowda MD & Associates, renowned board-certified, fellowship-trained plastic surgeon, Dr. Mune Gowda combines face and neck lifts to create balanced, natural results. Patients from Troy, Novi, Detroit, and beyond trust Dr. Gowda for his attention to detail and artistic approach to facial surgery.
The Goals of a Facelift
A facelift tightens sagging skin, smooths deep wrinkles, and restores youthful contours to the middle and lower parts of the face. It helps correct the changes that happen as the skin loses collagen and elasticity: Nasolabial folds (smile lines,) jowls, cheek hollowing, and loss of jaw definition.
During a facelift, Dr. Gowda repairs and repositions the underlying facial tissues, including the deeper tissues (the SMAS layer,) and trims excess skin. He repositions the skin to create a smoother, more youthful appearance.
The Goals of a Neck Lift
A neck lift treats the same problems as a facelift: Loose and sagging skin and weak muscles. Many people experience issues like a double chin and prominent neckbands as they age, but a neck lift can restore a smooth, sleek appearance.
Why a Face and Neck Lift Work Best Together
A facelift and neck lift have similar goals: Refining appearance and restoring the underlying tissues to their former positions. Each surgery can give you smooth, firm, and youthful contours.
But if you have one surgery and not the other, it might draw attention to the area you’d rather not put on display. For example, having a newly youthful face but leaving your neck untouched makes your neck look older. This imbalance can detract from your overall appearance and leave you less than pleased with your results.
Addressing both areas simultaneously gives you a natural, youthful, and balanced appearance. Both places will then age at the same rate, ensuring you enjoy an even look for many years.
Another big benefit of having both surgeries at once is the recovery: You’ll only have one anesthesia and surgery, with one recovery period. Dr. Gowda performs face and neck lifts at our state-of-the-art accredited ambulatory surgical center, conveniently located next to our Novi office.
