Male Neck Lift Surgery in Eugene, OR

How is Male Neck Lift Surgery Different?

Neck lift surgery for men has several distinctions compared to when the procedure is performed for female patients. This is due largely to anatomical differences and variances in overall cosmetic surgery goals. For example, men tend to develop higher amounts of fibrous fat on their neck, lower face, and beneath the chin.

Men also have thicker facial skin and underlying muscle tissue than women, so skin tightening and repositioning during neck lift surgery is less drastic to prevent excess tension. If the skin is too tight after the procedure, it could appear unnaturally strained and adversely impact chin and jawline contours.

The incision placement also varies for male patients in order to accommodate facial hair growth. Instead of running along the ear and hairline, Dr. Daniel skillfully places neck lift incisions beneath the chin, so they are hidden easily with or without facial hair growth. Placing the incisions underneath the chin will also decrease difficulty in performing liposuction during the procedure and allows for more fat removal to further enhance a more masculine facial contour. Because of these differences, male neck lift procedures in Eugene also typically require longer operations to ensure your safety and satisfactory results.
