Aging gracefully is a beautiful journey, but sometimes, the changes in our body might prompt us to seek solutions that help us feel more confident and vibrant. One such change is the appearance of our necks as we age. If you've been considering a rejuvenation procedure, you might be asking, "Is a neck lift the right solution for my aging neck?" Dr. Sean Kelishadi at SSK Plastic Surgery in Newport Beach, CA, offers expert guidance and professional services to those seeking a younger-looking neck.

What changes does the neck undergo with age?

The neck is one of the first areas to show signs of aging. But what exactly happens to our neck as we age? Skin loses its elasticity, and the platysma muscle, which runs down the neck, can become more prominent, leading to what many call a "turkey neck." Additionally, fat can accumulate under the chin, creating a double chin appearance. Understanding these changes is crucial when considering a neck lift in Newport Beach, CA.

How does a neck lift work?

So, how does a neck lift work? A neck lift, performed by an experienced plastic surgeon in Newport Beach, CA, like Dr. Kelishadi, is a surgical procedure that aims to improve the appearance of the neck. It involves removing excess skin, tightening underlying muscles, and sometimes liposuction to remove excess fat. This procedure can dramatically rejuvenate your neck's appearance, making it look smoother and more youthful.

Key benefits of a neck lift

  • Reduction of excess, sagging skin
  • Tighter, more defined neck contour
  • Reduction or removal of double chin
  • More youthful and refreshed appearance

Is a neck lift right for me?

Deciding if a neck lift is the right choice involves several factors. It's important to have realistic expectations and understand that a neck lift is tailored to individual needs. Dr. Kelishadi at SSK Plastic Surgery evaluates your specific case to determine the best approach. Factors like your overall health, skin quality, and personal goals are considered. If you're wondering, "How do I get a younger-looking neck?" consulting with Dr. Kelishadi is a great first step.

What can I expect during the recovery process?

After a neck lift procedure, understanding the recovery process is essential for optimal results. There will be some swelling and bruising, and Dr. Kelishadi will provide comprehensive aftercare instructions and support throughout your recovery period. Most patients can return to normal activities within a few weeks, but it's important to follow all guidelines to ensure the best possible outcome.

Dr. Kelishadi is amazing!!! He made me feel so comfortable! I had Breast Augmentation  May 26th. I'm three months out and loving my results! I was very self conscious  about my chest. My breasts shrunk due to breast feeding. I didn't even want to change in front of my husband.  (he loved them no matter what lol) and now I am feeling so great about it! He said he's even noticed a boost in my confidence level. I love it! i feel good..i feel sexy. I never thought I  would actually go through with getting this done, but Dr. Kelishadi and his staff helped me with every step of the way. He was very caring and checked up on me after surgery. His staff was very nice as well. All so helpful! I highly recommend him!

Words cannot describe how grateful I am to have met the SSK team.  I initially started with the med spa team at SSK and knew that I needed to do a breast augmentation consultation there as well.  From beginning to end, every single doctor/nurse and even Valerie at the front desk, involved in my procedures reached out giving clear instructions and also daily check-ins after my breast aug surgery.   Their patient care is beyond incredible.  The team gives you all of the instructions pre and post op, and they even go as far as giving you a sweet post op bag including the cutest, softest, coziest jump suit to wear into and out of the hospital on surgery day.  I am so so pleased with the team’s attention to detail, but more importantly, they are an exceptional care team you want and need!  Thank you SSK!  -Steph

I recently had a breast revision/augmentation with a lift by Dr Kelishadi and I couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon! He is known as the King of Cleavage and definitely lives up to the name. His staff is friendly, professional, and prompt to answer calls and respond to emails. It was also super nice and convenient having Dr Sherry as part of the team helping with all the medications ordered. On my pre op visit, I was given a bag with all the medications I would need for my surgery and recovery. Dr Sherry would text and make sure I didn’t have any questions which was so appreciated. After my surgery, Dr Kelishadi would call and check in to make sure I was doing well. If I had a questions or concerns, Dr Kelishadi would promptly call and answer all the questions I had. He is genuinely a great person and an amazing Surgeon that I would highly recommend.

I recently underwent a transformative experience at SSK Plastic Surgery, having a tummy tuck, muscle repair, and liposuction in the flanks and back. Being a mom to a 10 month old, I was pretty anxious about this procedure but right from my initial consultation, I was confident that I was in the hands of professionals who truly care. Now, just 3 days post-op, I caught a glimpse of my results and I’m beyond thrilled! Dr. Kalishadi’s skillful work has exceeded my expectations.On the day of the surgery, the entire team’s kindness helped alleviate any pre-surgery jitters. Dr. Kalishadi went above and beyond by personally reaching out to check on my recovery. Overall, my experience has been nothing short of amazing, and I couldn’t have chosen a better place for my procedure. I wholeheartedly recommend SSK Plastic Surgery to anyone seeking outstanding results and genuine care. Also shout out to Dr. Sherry, Valerie and Brianna who were also lovely! Thank you all so much!

I recently underwent a breast revision procedure at SSK Plastic Surgery, and I must say that my experience far exceeded my expectations.  From start to finish, the entire journey was seamless, and I am absolutely thrilled with the results.  Here’s why I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Kelishadi for anyone considering breast revision: Dr. Kelishadi is an exceptional plastic surgeon.  From the initial consultation to the post-surgery follow-ups, Dr. Kelishadi displayed remarkable expertise and a genuine care for my well-being.  He took the time to listen to and provided me with detailed explanations of the procedure.  The entire team at SSK Plastic Surgery was welcoming, friendly and professional.  They made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process, and their knowledge and expertise to my needs were remarkable.  One aspect that truly impressed me was the personalized approach they took throughout the entire journey.  I even worked with Dr. Sherrie for my hormones prior to surgery and needless to say I feel much better now.  I felt that she too was invested in my overall health.  Lastly, when it came to deciding the appropriate size for my revision, I had to place my trust in Dr. Kelishadi’s expertise and technique.  I discussed my desired goals with him, and he carefully assessed my body proportions, existing breast tissue and overall aesthetic balance.  Although I had initial apprehension about relinquishing control over to the size decision, I am thrilled to say that I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.  The size chosen by Dr. Kelishadi was absolutely perfect!  I would highly recommend SSK Plastic Surgery!
