Testimonials

After the loss of my husband I didn't like what I saw in the mirror anymore – his passing had taken years off my face. So I chose to begin my life again with a brand new face. I knew from my first visit with Dr. Clevens and his staff that I was in good hands. And as time went on, Dr. Clevens' knowledge and warm, sincere personality convinced me I was doing the right thing. A big thank you to this team for making my plastic surgery experience a success! Read more

Q: Will a Laser-Lift Result in Facial Wasting Like Thermage Treatments?

A: Laser-assisted weekend necklift

The laser assisted 'weekend' necklift represents the evolution of sophisticated facial plastic surgery techniques. These techniques are uniquely combined to achieve improvement in the contour of the chin and neck with minimal incisions and rapid recovery. Cervicofacial liposculpture is first employed to contour the unfavorable fatty changes seen in the face and neck as time passes by, such as the 'turkey neck' and 'double chin'.  Careful attention is then turned to tightening the neck muscles and eliminating neck bands.

Finally, the laser is used to 'resurface' the underside of the neck skin, thereby 'shrinkwrapping' the skin of the neck restoring a youthful contour. This innovative procedure may be performed at the same time as other rejuvenative procedures such as eyelid surgery, midface lifting, endoscopic browlifting, and cosmetic laser skin resurfacing.

Please call our office at 321.727.3223 to schedule your appointment and see if you are a candidate for a weekend necklift.

Q: What procedure should I have to remove my double chin?  I would like to get rid of my "double chin" but I absolutely cannot have time off from work and showing up there wearing pressure bandage after liposuction is simply impossible.  Are there any options that will allow me to improve the contour under my chin? I am 38, normal weight.

A: In my opinion, the BEST option for you is a Weekend Necklift.

The Weekend Necklift is an ideal procedure for the area under the chin and neck, including 'double chin'.

The laser assisted 'weekend' necklift represents the evolution of sophisticated facial plastic surgery techniques.  These techniques are uniquely combined to achieve improvement in the contour of the chin and neck with minimal incisions and rapid recovery.

To achieve a weekend necklift:

  1. I use cervicofacial liposculpture to contour the unfavorable fatty changes seen in the face and neck as time passes by, such as the 'Turkey neck' and 'double chin'.
  2. Next I pay careful attention to tightening the neck muscles and eliminating neck bands.
  3. Lastly, I employ laser technology to 'resurface' the underside of the neck skin, thereby 'shrinkwrapping' the skin of the neck restoring a youthful contour.

After a short recovery of a few days, the patient can return to normal activity and the only evidence that the procedure has been performed is a dramatically improved appearance and a one-inch incision hidden in the natural fold under the chin. It is generally recommended that patients "take it easy" for a week after the procedure. Many patients say they feel nearly normal that afternoon, however, by the next morning they experience some discomfort.  This procedure is ideal to have done on a Thursday as most patients can easily return to work the following Monday.

Please feel free to call our office at 321.727.3223 today to schedule your consultation to see if you're a candidate for a weekend necklift.

As the field of cosmetic surgery continues to evolve with the times, patients desire more personally - tailored procedures and the dramatic results they covet with less time away from the office. Today's patients are seeking out procedures that are safe, effective and predictable. They are spending more cautiously and devoting more effort to doing their homework to avoid the pitfalls of highly touted procedures that do not last or look natural.
