Take Years Off Your Appearance with a Nonsurgical Neck Lift

Take Years Off Your Appearance with a Nonsurgical Neck Lift

A neck lift reduces the appearance of a turkey neck or neck bands, but many people hesitate to undergo surgery. Here’s everything you need to know about nonsurgical neck lifts.

Sagging skin on your neck can contribute to a more mature look just as much as wrinkles on your face. Neck lifts are popular for this reason. A neck lift makes the skin on your neck appear tighter, contributing to a more youthful overall appearance. 

The skin on your neck is delicate, which is why you want to treat it as gently as possible. If you’re not willing or able to undergo surgery, a nonsurgical neck lift can give you comparable results to neck lift surgery without incisions, scars, or potential complications of surgery.  

At Women’s Health Institute in Macon and Warner Robins, Georgia, Nnaemeka Umerah, MD, and Anayo Umerah, MD, and their team specialize in nonsurgical neck lifts using Fractora by InMode™. It’s a microneedling treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to tighten the banded skin and tissues on your neck. Fractora treatments increase the collagen of your neck, making the skin and tissues tighter and firmer. 

A nonsurgical neck lift is an excellent option for revitalizing your appearance, and you can pair it with facial procedures for a more cohesive enhancement. Learn the facts about nonsurgical neck lifts and alternative options in this article. 

What to expect from a nonsurgical neck lift

A nonsurgical neck lift with Fractora can tighten the loose skin on your neck, reduce sagging, and minimize wrinkles. The device’s handpiece has a network of microneedles on the head, which are hair-thin to minimize discomfort. 

During the procedure, your provider stretches the skin on your neck and gently presses the needles onto the surface. Controlled pulses of radio frequency then travel through the needles and into the deeper tissues of your neck. 

Together, the needle points and radio frequency stimulate a healing process deep within your skin and on the surface. As part of the process, collagen fibers begin to grow and make the skin tighter. This happens in the months following treatment, resulting in a naturally rejuvenated appearance. 

The benefits of nonsurgical procedures

Nonsurgical neck lifts offer many benefits over neck lift surgery. Although neck lift surgery can offer dramatic results, you might not be interested in going under the knife for tighter neck contours. Fortunately, you don’t have to. A nonsurgical neck lift can make your chin and neck look more youthful while also offering: 

  • A faster recovery time than surgery
  • A shorter procedure than surgery, taking just 30-90 minutes
  • Fewer risks and complications
  • Less strain on your bank account

Nonsurgical neck lifts are generally more accessible than neck lift surgery. If you’re not a candidate for a surgical neck lift, you might still be able to get Fractora. 

Minimally invasive alternatives

If you’re having trouble choosing between a nonsurgical neck lift and neck lift surgery, minimally invasive surgeries offer a few of the benefits of both. 

Women’s Health Institute also offers two forms of radio frequency-assisted liposuction, which use smaller incisions to liquefy and remove fat while tightening skin at the same time. FaceTite and NeckTite by InMode™ contour your chin, jaw, and neck by combining fat-removing liposuction with skin-tightening radio frequency.
