In cases of pronounced sagging skin under the chin, especially in men or patients with a so-called \"turkey neck\", a classic neck lift is not always sufficient. In this case, a direct neck lift with Z-plasty can be a solution. This technique removes excess skin through a vertical incision in the centre of the neck. The scar is cleverly hidden in a Z-pattern, which distributes tension better and allows the skin to heal more beautifully. The underlying neck muscle (platysma) can also be tightened or repositioned in the process. This procedure is done under local anaesthesia with sedation and recovery takes an average of 7 to 10 days. The result - a tighter neckline - is immediately visible.<\/p>\n
24 hours after the procedure, the dressing will be replaced by a pressure bandage, which you will wear day and night for one week. After that, you will only wear it at night. Swelling and bruising are normal and disappear gradually. Temporary reduced sensation in the neck or cheeks is also possible and will recover by itself. Cold compresses may provide relief.<\/p>\n
Swelling, bruising and temporary loss of sensation are common. Those who use blood thinners or smoke are at increased risk of post-bleeding or delayed wound healing. In rare cases, part of the skin may become less well supplied with blood. Scars are initially visible but usually fade well.<\/p>\n
Are you unsure between a classic or direct neck lift with Z-plasty? Make an appointment for a consultation<\/a> with Dr Schiettecatte at Kliniek Veldhoven. Together, we look at which technique gives the best result in your situation.<\/p>\nIn brief:<\/h2>\n\n
| Duration of surgery:\t<\/td> | about one hour.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| Anaesthesia:<\/td> | local anaesthesia with an intoxication.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| Inpatient admission:<\/td> | for one night.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| Pain relief afterwards:<\/td> | paracetamol or a similar painkiller.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| Drains:<\/td> | sometimes, are removed two days after surgery.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| Sutures:<\/td> | under the chin.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| Link:<\/td> | Pressure bandage for one week day and night, then only at night.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
| Practical:<\/td> | for four to six weeks after surgery, you should avoid intense exercise and not smoke.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n |
