Mini Necklift in Cincinnati, OH

About the Neck Lift

The mini neck lift is a less invasive necklift procedure which can improve the appearance of the neck. During the surgery, vertical neck bands are removed and excess neck skin is tightened. Incisions for the mini neck lift are less extensive than those for a traditional neck lift and result in shorter surgery and recovery times as well as decreased bruising and swelling. The result is a more youthful and flattering jawline and neck angle with less downtime.

*Each patient is unique and individual results may vary.

Individuals who are looking to improve loose skin and banding of the neck without the downtime associated with a traditional necklift may be good candidates for a mini neck lift. Patients should also be in good physical, have realistic expectations for the outcome, and understand the limitations of the mini neck lift as the procedure cannot produce the same dramatic results as a full neck lift. The surgery is often ideal for younger patients with less extensive sagging and banding of the neck. During your consultation, Dr. Donath will help you to decide if the mini necklift is right for you.

The Necklift Surgery Process

Local anesthesia with sedation may be used for the mini necklift. Incisions are typically smaller than for a traditional neck lift and may be located behind the ears and/or under the chin. Working through the incisions, the neck muscles may be altered and excess skin removed. The overall recovery, including swelling and bruising, are less than after a traditional neck lift. Most patients are able to return to work after one week’s time, though rigorous activities may be prohibited for a longer period of time.

Mini Necklift FAQs

Q – What is a mini neck lift?

A – Is a less invasive version of the traditional facelift. This procedure can improve excess skin and vertical banding in the neck with less bruising and swelling. The mini necklift provides a more youthful look to the jaw line and neck angle.

Q – Is the mini necklift right for me?

A – If you are looking to improve the appearance of excess skin and vertical banding in the neck with minimal downtime, then a mini necklift may be right for you. Patients must also be physically healthy and realistic in their expectations. It’s important to understand that the procedure cannot provide the same dramatic results of a full neck lift. This surgery is often ideal for patients who are younger and have less extensive sagging and banding that does not require a traditional full neck lift. Dr. Donath is happy to meet with you for a consultation to help you decide if the mini necklift can best address your needs.

Q – What happens at the consultation for a mini neck lift?

A – During the consultation, Dr. Donath will meet with you to examine your neck, discuss your goals, and take a thorough medical history. He will weigh other factors like your skin type, individual healing, and skin elasticity to help determine if the mini necklift is right for you. Dr. Donath will explain the technique, the anesthesia, the surgical facility, the risks and the costs associated with procedure, and he will address any questions or concerns that you have. To help you achieve your desired look, additional procedures like facial liposuction or skin resurfacing may be recommended at this time.

Q – What anesthesia is the mini necklift performed with?

A – The procedure may be performed with local anesthesia and sedation.

Q – How is the surgery for the mini necklift performed?

A – Dr. Donath begins the mini necklift surgery by making incisions behind the ears and/or under the chin. These incisions are smaller than those made for a traditional neck lift. He may then alter the neck muscles and will remove the excess skin before closing the incisions.

What a fantastic job by Dr. Donath and his staff! The surgical results exceeded my expectation! This surgery took years of my face & neck. I was surprised how quickly I healed and and was back in circulation.
Thank you So much!
