How to Get Rid of a Turkey Neck in Denver: Top Procedures at Atagi Plastic Surgery
When you look in the mirror, do you notice sagging skin, a double chin or an undefined jawline? The dreaded “turkey neck,”, can leave you feeling older than your years. While skincare helps, it often isn’t enough to firm the loose skin under the chin. Fortunately, there are cosmetic procedures, that can restore a sleek jawline and smooth neck. Whether you prefer minimally invasive solutions like Power-Assisted Liposuction and FaceTite, or a surgical option like a Necklift.
At Atagi Plastic Surgery and Skin Aesthetics in Denver, Colorado, we offer personalized treatments to address turkey neck, tailored to your goals and recovery preferences.
Submental PAL ®Liposuction: A Minimally Invasive Solution for Stubborn Fat
Submental PAL ®(Power-Assisted Liposuction) is one of the most effective ways to target and eliminate fat in the neck area. Using a specialized vibrating cannula, the fat is gently suctioned out while minimizing tissue trauma. PAL ® Liposuction breaks up fat cells quickly and efficiently, resulting in smoother, more predictable results with less bruising and swelling. Patients who are concerned about excess fat beneath the chin, rather than sagging skin, are ideal candidates for this procedure.
The Stats You Should Know:
A 2019 clinical study revealed that PAL ® Liposuction can reduce submental fat by up to 80%, significantly improving the contour of the neck, double chin and jawline. This minimal downtime procedure allows for a fast recovery, with most patients returning to light activities within 7-10 days.
FaceTite: Tighten and Tone
For those with sagging skin along with fat, FaceTite is often the perfect complement to PAL ® Liposuction. Using radiofrequency energy, FaceTite heats the skin’s deeper layers, stimulating collagen production and resulting in firmer, tighter skin. The FaceTite procedure continues to improve your appearance for months after, as collagen production is a gradual process.
What makes this combination so effective is the dual approach: while PAL Liposuction removes the fat, FaceTite tightens the skin for a smoother, more defined neckline. Studies show that FaceTite can reduce skin laxity by 40%, with the results lasting up to five years.
NeckLift: The Gold Standard for Long-Lasting Results
For patients with significant sagging skin and muscle laxity, a Necklift may be the best option. While Submental PAL Liposuction and FaceTite work well for mild to moderate cases of turkey neck, a Necklift can address the tightening of neck muscles, and excess skin laxity, for a more sculpted, youthful look.
A Necklift is often performed under general anesthesia. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, 94% of Necklift patients are satisfied with their results. Results can last for 10 to 15 years, making it an excellent investment for long-term rejuvenation.
Beyond Aesthetics: The Hidden Benefits
While many patients pursue these treatments for aesthetic reasons, what’s not often discussed is the psychological boost that comes with a defined jawline and neck. Studies have shown that men and women who undergo procedures to improve their appearance report higher levels of self-confidence and self-esteem post-surgery. In addition, many patients notice that their posture improves as they are less inclined to hide their neck or slouch in an effort to conceal sagging skin.
