When you reach your early 40s, you may notice that the skin between your neck and jaw, which was once a taut right angle, is now simply dropping. This “drop zone” is the subject of many heart-to-heart conversations. We have all watched at least one friend (of a certain age) pulling back the skin in front of her ears with two thumbs to illustrate how much better she would look without the drooping, wavy jaw line.
The aging jaw and neck are challenging. The neck is comprised of three layers: skin, fat, and muscle. Sagging muscles and bulging fat are located under the thinnest, crepiest skin on the body (except for eyelid skin). To make matters worse, a thin ropey material called platysma tends to split into a V-like formation of two cords that stick out especially when they contract. To see this phenomenon in action (if you’re over 40) look in a mirror, say “eee,” and watch in horror what happens. Experts say, “Trying to fix all of that with potions and lotions is like waging a two-front war on a sheet of thin ice.” And who wants to have surgery? The best option is a Non-Surgical Neck Lift.

The ideal profile appearance has a straight jawline with a definite underlying shadow, uninterrupted by jowling or descending facial fat. Also, there should be a sharp, well-defined 110 degree angle unobstructed by fat or loose skin. Age and/or weight gain tend to destroy the appearance of the neck. Today, there are ways to create a crisp, more youthful look to the neck. At Perfect Body Laser & Aesthetics, we specialize in non-surgical, non-invasive, FDA approved technologies which tighten and lift the skin around the jaw by helping the body rebuild its own natural collagen. Our treatments help refine the jawline by reducing the volume in the jowl area, leaving the jaw looking refreshed and youthful.

Ultherapy is a non-surgical face and neck treatment that uses ultrasound to actually lift and tone loose skin without any downtime. It is the only treatment that can specifically target the deep foundation below the skin that is addressed in cosmetic surgery without cutting or disrupting the surface of the skin. It is also the only procedure to use ultrasound imaging, which allows us to actually see the layers of tissue we target during treatment and ensure the energy is delivered precisely to where it will be most effective.

Ultrasound is an interesting way to do neck lifts. There aren't many places to have it done. I wonder how long the results typically Dell P. Smith Center for Plastic Surgerylast.
