Improving the appearance of your neck without surgery is one of my specialties. On the right patient, I can address neck wrinkles, “crepey” skin texture, prominent platysma bands, and “jowling” as well as overall skin laxity. This kind of rejuvenation used to only be achievable with a surgical neck lift. The key to these exemplary non-surgical results is proper patient selection, and performing multiple complimentary procedures at the same time. This is the advantage of seeing a Board-Certified Facial Plastic Surgeon such as myself. I can take micro-needling, for example, to the next level beyond what you would receive at your local MedSpa or dermatologist. For this reason, non-surgical neck rejuvenation at Boston Center for Plastic Surgery (BCFPS) is more cost effective since you will not have to come back time and time again in order to get the result that you want. Furthermore, the downtime will never be more than 5 days. Most patients agree that this is a small price to pay for the kind of “Wow” result that I can deliver.
How Much Does Non-Surgical Neck Rejuvenation Cost?
In general, non-surgical neck rejuvenation at my Boston office is going to cost anywhere between $2,000 and $5,000 depending on which procedures we decide are best for achieving your desired outcome. It is important to keep in mind, however, that cost is about more than simply the price tag of a specific procedure. Other factors to consider include whether or not it is a one-and-done treatment and how much time is required to recover. As discussed, my non-surgical approach to rejuvenating the neck does not require multiple sessions spaced weeks apart, and no matter what combination of procedures make up your treatment plan, the recovery will never be more than 5 days. Furthermore, the results are significant and long-lasting.
Are You a Candidate for Non-Surgical Neck Rejuvenation in Boston?
Achieving an excellent result with non-surgical neck rejuvenation is about finding the right combination of treatments for your unique anatomy and goals. The ideal patient is anyone in good overall health who is bothered by:
- Wrinkles
- “Crepey” skin texture
- Visible platysma bands
- Bulges of excess fat
- “Jowling”
- Mild to moderate skin laxity
If you suffer from a severe amount of looseness in the skin and tissues of your neck, you are probably a better candidate for a surgical neck lift. However, some patients do not want surgery and that is ok. During your initial consultation, we will go over all the options as well as what you can realistically hope to achieve with a non-surgical approach.
Non-Surgical Procedures for the Neck
The reason that I can radically rejuvenate the neck without surgery is due to the fact that I combine a number of different procedures in one session. This allows me to address all of the underlying issues that are causing your neck to look older than you may like. I offer my Boston area patients a full range of non-surgical procedures for the neck such as:
- Microneedling
- Profound®: microneedling with radiofrequency (RF)
- ThermiRF+®
- FaceTite™
- Botox®
- Laser skin resurfacing
- Fat grafting
- Renuvion®
An example of a typical combination for non-surgical neck rejuvenation is microneedling and fat grafting. The former can be done superficially on top of your skin to address fine lines, wrinkles and crepiness. Or I can kick it up a notch by adding radiofrequency(RF) to your microneedling procedure in order to address both the surface of the skin and the deeper dermis. This helps induce your body to produce more collagen and elastin which are the bedrock of youthful looking skin. Fat grafting can further enhance these results by restoring lost volume in the neck, which is one of the biggest agers, while the stem cells in the fat will also ramp up collagen production, helping to diminish the appearance of wrinkles.
So, if you find yourself hiding your neck during every FaceTime or Zoom meeting, schedule an appointment to come in and discuss how non-surgical neck rejuvenation can help.
