Skin Rejuvenation Options for the Neck and Chest
Aging and environmental elements take their toll on the skin. Most people take precautions to protect facial skin, because they know it is vulnerable to imperfections such as fine lines, wrinkles, and deep creases. Unfortunately, many neglect the neck and chest area, which is even more susceptible to damage.
The skin along the neck and chest is thinner than facial skin, so wrinkles, sagging, and other signs of aging are common. Dr. William C. Cohen offers skin rejuvenation options for the neck and chest, including laser treatments that erase signs of aging. Treatment allows individuals in Orange, Placentia, CA, and surrounding areas to experience smoother, firmer, and more youthful looking skin.
Laser Treatments
Laser treatment is the most popular cosmetic solution for the skin of the neck and chest. Laser treatment is effective at rejuvenating the skin, and offers the benefit of being non-invasive. Laser treatment results in minimal side effects, a fairly fast recovery period, and no scarring.
Laser treatment delivers energy that gently heats the upper layer of the skin. Laser skin treatment has many potential applications. Lasers stimulate collagen production to tighten the skin and soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Laser treatment can also improve skin texture, minimizing the appearance of imperfections such as scars, age spots, and visible blood vessels.
Cosmetic Injectables
Cosmetic injectables are another possible treatment for the neck and chest. Dr. Cohen offers a wide range of cosmetic injectables at his Orange plastic surgery practice. BOTOX® Cosmetic is one of these popular injectables. BOTOX injections temporarily paralyze the muscles that are responsible for wrinkles. Cosmetic fillers are also a popular option. The dermal fillers add volume that plumps ups and smoothens the skin, filling in wrinkles and creases.
Depending on a patient’s needs, Dr. Cohen may be able to offer BOTOX injections or fillers to treat wrinkles and eliminate creases. Both injection options can target the skin along the neck and chest. The results look more youthful, and blend in seamlessly with the facial skin.
Neck Lift Surgery
Laser treatment and cosmetic injections can do a lot to enhance the appearance of the neck and chest, but some patients don’t get the full results they desire from these treatments. If loose skin, creases, and/or wrinkles are severe, patients may be ideal candidates for neck lift surgery. A neck lift can be performed alone or in conjunction with other cosmetic treatments, rejuvenating the skin along the neckline. The procedure can also improve the appearance of the chin and jawline.
A neck lift is a surgical procedure that eliminates excess skin and fat deposits, and tightens underlying muscles. This lifts and tightens the skin of the neck. For many, a neck lift can be just as effective as a facelift, but it offers the benefit of being less invasive. Neck lift recovery is also fairly short, with most patients being able to return to work within a week or two.
