If you have smooth and youthful skin well into your forties, then you definitely have something to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. But if you’re like the rest of the general population, you might notice that your once plump and youthful skin is now thin and sagging; wrinkles have spread across your lower face, “smile lines” are deeper, and jowls have made an unwanted appearance. If the skin on your neck is very lax, you might even have the beginning signs of the dreaded “turkey neck.” Fortunately, Dr. Oliver and Dr. Jack offer a procedure that can help you look completely human again – just in time for the holidays.

Neck Lift

With this procedure combination, patients receive all the benefits of a facelift while also eliminating sagging skin in the neck and even excess fat beneath the chin. The procedure involves tightening not only the skin, but the underlying muscles as well, to produce a result that looks naturally lifted. As the muscles and skin are tightened, wrinkles are eliminated and the entire face can appear up to ten years younger.

With a face and neck lift, you can expect a recovery time of about two weeks, but the results will be longer lasting and more effective than minimally invasive treatments for wrinkles and facial aging such as BOTOX® and injectable fillers. A neck lift is also the only solution for the very lax neck skin characteristic of the beloved star of this holiday, the turkey.

As you prepare to see relatives you may not have seen in quite a while this Thanksgiving, you may want to consider this procedure for the ultimate boost in confidence.
