The neck is one of the first parts of the body to show the signs of ageing, but you don’t have to put up with those telltale wrinkles and that loose skin. Neck lift surgery can help to eliminate some of the signs of ageing affecting this area, but it is important to discuss the procedure with your doctor to determine whether it is right for you.

Are You a Good Candidate for Neck Lift Surgery?

There are three specific issues that a neck lift can address for you:&nbsp;<ul><li>Loose or sagging skin around the neck can be removed, leaving you with a smoother, tauter neck</li><li>Prominent platysmal or vertical neck bands can be reduced</li><li>Excess fat can be removed to eliminate heavy jowls or a double chin</li></ul>

What Neck Lift Surgery Can Achieve

If you are concerned about any of these three issues, then you may want to consider having surgery to correct them. However, there are a few other factors that you should consider when deciding whether neck lift surgery is right for you. One issue to consider is whether you have any excess weight that you want to lose. If you do, it is best to do this before having a neck lift so that you don’t end up with more loose skin when the weight is gone.You should also be aware that the results of the procedure will depend in part on the condition of your skin. Healthy skin that hasn’t become too thin will heal much better after the operation and you will get the best results if you still have some elasticity in the skin around your neck. You can test this by gently pinching and pulling out a fold of your skin then letting it go. If it springs back into place quite quickly, it should respond well to the surgery.&nbsp;

Who Should Consider a Neck Lift

<h2>Cosmetic Reasons for Rhinoplasty</h2>Reduction <a href="rhinoplasty-london">rhinoplasty</a> can remove cartilage and bone to reduce the size of the nose by:<ul><li>Smoothing out a bump on the bridge of the nose</li><li>Reducing the size of the tip or the nose as a whole</li><li>Narrowing the nose or making it look more balanced</li></ul>Augmentation rhinoplasty is less common in London, but it is popular with patients from certain ethnic backgrounds who have smaller, flatter noses. It involves reshaping the nose, often by adding bone or cartilage taken from elsewhere in the body.&nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Adding Bone or Cartilage may:</h2><ul><li>Build up the bridge of the nose</li><li>Enhance the tip to create a more balanced appearance</li><li>Increase the width or overall size of the nose</li></ul>Other kinds of rhinoplasty can help to reshape the nose, rather than to alter its size. The nose might be made more symmetrical or the angle between it at the upper lip may be altered.Whatever the reasons for having a cosmetic rhinoplasty, the procedure will always be tailored to each patient’s needs. The aim will usually be to achieve the desired effect in a way that fits and balances with the rest of the face. It is also usually important to preserve the patient's individuality along with their gender and ethnic identity.&nbsp;<h2>Correcting Deviated Noses</h2>Sometimes there are additional reasons for having rhinoplasty. Surgery can help to correct structural issues, including those caused by childhood or sports injuries. The surgery may be able to help with breathing problems or even to prevent snoring by repositioning the bones or cartilage.

Rhinoplasty is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures in London, but the reasons for having this operation can vary.

Common Reasons for Having Rhinoplasty

A facelift can have a dramatic effect on your appearance, but the full facelift isn’t right for everyone. If all you need is a slight lift in a few parts of your face, a mini facelift at the London clinic might be a better option.

Is the Mini Facelift Right for You?

Although many people have a rhinoplasty for purely cosmetic reasons, your surgeon can also use the opportunity to clear any blockages or to correct a deviated septum.
