Facial Plastic Surgery

Neck Lift Surgery Overview

After you are prepped, sedated and made totally comfortable, Dr. Leong will make tiny incisions under your chin through which he will work to manipulate the platysma muscle and suture it into a new position. Excess fat and skin will be removed and a more youthful definition and contour will be restored.

The procedure usually includes liposuction which involves suctioning excess fat through a cannula (vacuum tube). The excess fat can be treated and transferred (fat transfer) to deep creases and wrinkles to help plump them out. Excess skin is trimmed and the remaining skin is lifted into place and sutured. Small incisions behind the ear allow for this.  Sutures close the incisions and a compression bandage is wrapped your head and neck. This must be worn for about 1 week. Your surgery will take from 2-4 hours.

  • Dr. Leong is especially pleased to be one of the first practices in Pittsburgh to offer Dysport by Medicis. Dysport (sometimes called Reloxin) is a cosmetic treatment for facial wrinkles that functions in a very similar way to Botox Cosmetic. Dysport has been used for many years in Europe and Canada with great success and is now being offered by our practice at an especially affordable price. Please call for details.
