Neck Lift Procedure


As we age our skin become more loose and fallen, making us look older, this phenomenon happens also to out neck skin. Gravity, sun exposure and age make our neck look sagging, sometimes patients describe it as turtle neck due to two long "bands" appearing on the neck. Sometimes it is simply a matter of genetics and sometimes it happens following excessive weight reduction. This procedure is targeted to reverse the above processes and give you a younger appearance. To undergo neck lift you must be in a good mental and physical condition.

This procedure consists of several techniques. A procedure targeted to remove or reshape extra neck muscle, called platysmaplasty. It can be done by making small incisions either under the chin or behind the ears, this allows to access the muscles and shorten then by a technique called 'plication". Sometimes extra muscle is simply removed or anchored with permanent sutures. This can also be done using less invasive laparoscopic technique.

If extra skin is present the surgeon will perform a procedure called cervicoplasty. The incisions are made in the same areas as the previous one. The skin is lift and organized in a desired position, then it is secured in place by biological glue or non-absorbable stitches. If an extra fat is present a liposuction is also performed. A small cut is made below the chin through which a special cannula is inserted. Through the cannula the extra fat is removed.

Neck lift usually takes 2-3 hours depending on the extend of the operation and the additional procedures performed (such as facelift or brow lift). It can be done using general or local anesthesia, depending on your preference.

Every procedure has its ricks. The most common complication is bleeding and hematoma formation, therefore before the operation you should stop taking any anti coagulation medications for at least two weeks. Hematomas can lead to blood clots formation and consequently skin necrosis. Aggressive liposuction may lead to scaring and adhesions of the muscles, giving your neck "cobra like" appearance. Infection and allergic reaction to anesthesia are also possible.

For the first days following surgery your neck will look swollen with bruises you may feel different sensations of burning, tingling and numbness. Those will resolve in a couple of weeks. Most people can return to work after 10-14 days. You'll have to avoid sports activities for at least 3 weeks

  • Austria Climate

    Austria has a temperate continental climate. Summers last from early June to mid-September and can be hot in some years and rainy in others. Day-time temperatures in July and August are around 25° C (77° F), but can often reach 35° C (95° F). Winters are cold in the lowlands and very harsh in the Alpine region with temperatures often dropping below -10° C (14° F). Winters last from December to March (longer at higher altitudes). In the Alpine region large temperature fluctuations occur all year round and nights are chilly even in high summer. The northern Alps are generally a lot wetter than the rest of the country. The South East (Styria and Carinthia) is dry and sunny. The area around Vienna often experiences strong easterly winds.



  • Austria Geography D?rnstein/Wachau

    Contrary to popular perceptions, Austria is not all about mountains. In fact, the Alps only occupy about half of the country. A diverse mix of landscapes is packed into a relatively small area. Glaciers, meadows, alpine valleys, wooded foothills, gently rolling farmland, vineyards, river gorges, plains and even semi-arid steppes can be found in Austria.

    One quarter of Austria's population lives in Greater Vienna, located where the Danube meets the Easternmost fringe of the Alps, not far from the border with Slovakia. Virtually all government, financial and cultural institutions, as well as national media and large corporations are based in Vienna. Thus, the capital dominates Austria's cultural and political life.
