Questions To Ask at Your Neck Lift Consultation

cosmetic surgery, neck lift, liposuction, facelift, plastic surgeonCosmetic surgery is a process. And one of the most significant and important steps in that process is the pre-surgery consultation appointment. Cosmetic surgery consultations allow me to better connect with my patients and gain a clear understanding of the aesthetic goals they hope to achieve with their respective procedures. Today I wanted to take some time to focus specifically on neck lift surgery. A neck lift surgery consultation is essential for helping ensure my patients get the most out of their surgical experience.

Making the most of your neck lift consultation is critical to fully understand the procedure and the benefits that it can help provide. With this in mind, I am happy to provide the following sample questions for any neck lift consultation:

  • Are you board-certified as a plastic surgeon?
  • How many years of experience do you have performing neck lift surgery?
  • Which neck lift procedure method will best help me achieve my cosmetic goals?
  • Will my neck lift be performed under general anesthesia or a local anesthetic?
  • How much visible scarring will I experience after undergoing my neck lift?
  • Can my neck lift be combined with a facelift procedure?
  • Do you have any neck lift before and after photos from patients you have previously performed surgery on?
  • What are the most common risks or complications associated with neck lift surgery?
  • How should I prepare for my post-surgery recovery period?
  • Will my neck lift require a hospital stay?

Undergoing a neck lift can be an incredible way to help a person look and feel they’re very best while shaving several years off of their appearance.
