What can I expect after the procedure? What is the recovery time for neck lift/liposuction?
Neck lift and neck liposuction are outpatient procedures with patients leaving the outpatient surgical center within an hour of surgery. The surgical area is bandaged and a drain may be placed to prevent fluid accumulation. Drains, if placed, and bandages are removed after a day or two and sutures, unless self-absorbing, are removed ten or so days after surgery. While healing, the head should be kept elevated to speed resolution of swelling. Post-operative bruising and swelling, if present, gradually resolve over two to four weeks with patients able to return to work and social activities after a week to 10 days. Vigorous activity, however, should be delayed for three to four weeks.

I had such a positive experience here with Dr. Z and his staff. From the initial consultation to my post-surgery appts. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. All my questions/concerns were addressed, the surgery itself went really well (and I am so happy with my results, seriously life changing), my recovery went smoothly and Dr. Z gave me his personal cell # so I could reach out if I had any worries during my recovery. Dr. Z and his staff truly care about their patients and go above and beyond to deliver the best results! I highly recommend coming here if you need any aesthetic surgery, you won't be disappointed.
