Do I need a necklift in Baltimore or a Baltimore facelift or both?

October 28, 2021Jeffrey Schreiber, MDUncategorizedNo Comments

facelift Baltimore

The neck and face are known to age us but sometimes at different rates. Many people turn to plastic surgery to address these issues individually or combine these procedures for a total rejuvenation. Many people assume a facelift Baltimore will treat all areas of the face, including the forehead and eyes. However, a traditional Baltimore facelift focuses only on the lower half of the face from the cheeks down. A neck lift focuses only on areas under your chin. These areas include under your chin loose skin, wrinkles and lines (Turkey neck). 

Facelift surgery is designed to treat skin laxity and drooping of the lower face from the cheeks to the jawline. Rejuvenate the aging face- remove excess sagging skin, sagging jowls, cheeks, clean up jaw line.  It greatly improves appearance- appear more rested, younger; less tired, old. During a facelift, incisions are typically made in front of and behind the ear. A Baltimore facelift can focus on areas of the neck, but in a different way than a neck lift does.

Surgery Time: 6-8 hours- can stay overnight 

Recovery: Recommend 2 weeks off of work.

  • Makeup can be used to hide bruising once the sutures are removed. 
  • Return to full activity by 3 weeks.
  • The scar will continue to fade for up to 2 years. 

Neck lift surgery is known to create a smoother and more refined neck and chin without making any other changes to the face, depending on the patient’s needs. Dr. Schreiber essentially redrapes skin in the neck while removing excess skin and tightening muscles in order to improve loose neck skin. During a neck lift, the locations of the incisions vary. Neck lifts will sometimes require an incision both in front of and behind the ear.

Surgery Time: The procedure takes 1-2 hours. You will either go home the same day or stay overnight in the hospital depending on your individual needs.

Recovery Dr. Schreiber recommends Return to work in 7-10 days. Return to strenuous activities in 4-6 weeks.

  • Bruising and swelling can mostly be covered over by 2 weeks.
  • Return to full activity by 3-4 weeks.

Most patients that would benefit from a neck lift also show the signs of aging on the face which would improve with a lower facelift. For this reason, the most commonly performed procedure is actually a combination lower face and neck lift. The incisions are placed around the ear (both in front and behind) and occasionally a small incision below the chin.

    Dr. Schreiber performed my tummy tuck in 2017 and I am so excited about my results as they are amazing. Dr. Schreiber was so easy to work with and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. He was always there when I needed to ask him something and gave me his cell phone number...
