When you are considering ways to look younger, don’t forget your neck area. The area tends to show signs of aging before your face. Springs Aesthetics offers neck lifts for men and women in Colorado Springs, South Denver, Castle Rock and other areas of Colorado.
What is a Neck Lift?
A neck lift is a facial plastic surgery procedure that improves the contours and skin texture of your neck area, including the area just under your jaw line and chin. The neck is often neglected when men and women are considering anti-aging surgeries, yet it can develop some of the most obvious signs of aging, such as banding of the muscles, loose skin and pockets of fat.

Dr. Burroughs is Board Certified and a Fellow of the American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Academy of Ophthalmology. He uses innovative techniques for the neck lift procedure that aim to maximize patient satisfaction and minimize downtime and recovery.

What is Recovery From Neck Lift and Facelift Like?
Recovery from a neck lift and facelift may take a few weeks or longer, but is generally not painful. Rest is very important during the first five to seven days, and this is when you may have some swelling, bruising, tightness on the neck area and other symptoms. Recovery is quicker with use of a provided support face-neck garment. Springs Aesthetics will also guide on medical grade cosmeceutical to help prepare your skin and facilitate healing. Some spa treatments are both complimentary and complementary to help your recovery and prolong results.
Can I Have A Neck Lift Without Surgery?
Yes, some patients can and have done so. The results will not be as full or as long lasting, but is popular with many patients not having the time or desire to have surgery. Radiofrequency skin tightening can help neck sagging, and can be done with minimally invasive fat liposuction. There are also newer generation thread lifts (Silhouette InstaLift) that work well, and can be done to speed a result while radiofrequency techniques keep improving for 6 months or longer.
What are the Risks of a Neck Lift?
Any type of surgery carries some degree of risk. Infections and excessive scar tissue are the primary concern, and these risks are reduced when you work with Dr. Burroughs.
