Lifting du cou

Qu'est-ce que le lifting du cou ?

 

Le lifting du cou, également appelé rhytidectomie inférieure ou lipectomie sous-mentale, est une chirurgie esthétique du visage qui vise à créer un cou plus défini et d'apparence plus jeune en éliminant l'excès de peau et de graisse autour de la ligne de la mâchoire. Le remodelage du cou est souvent réalisé dans le cadre d'un lifting du visage, mais il peut ne pas être pratiqué si le patient ne s'y prête pas.

 

Les procédures de lifting du cou peuvent également inclure les éléments suivants :

 

  • Cervicoplastie : Suppression de l'excès de peau
  • Platysmaplastie : Suppression ou modification des muscles du cou.
  • Liposuccion pour éliminer l'excès de graisse

 

 

Pourquoi procède-t-on à un lifting du cou ?

 

Le lifting du cou est souvent la solution privilégiée lorsque le patient souffre d'une caroncule de dinde, d'un excès de graisse autour du cou ou d'un excès de peau. On parle de "queue de dinde" lorsque l'excès de tissu s'accumule sous la mâchoire du patient et crée l'apparence de la section de chair qui pend sous le cou d'une dinde. Cette apparence ajoute des années à l'âge du patient concerné, le faisant paraître beaucoup plus vieux qu'il ne l'est en réalité. Le lifting du cou est l'intervention chirurgicale idéale pour atténuer la caroncule du dindon.

 

Quelles sont les conditions requises pour une opération de lifting du cou ?

 

Le lifting du cou est recommandé aux patients suivants :

 

  • Les patients qui ne présentent pas de conditions médicales susceptibles d'entraver la cicatrisation ou d'augmenter le risque de l'intervention chirurgicale.
  • Les patients qui peuvent être anesthésiés en toute sécurité.
  • Les patients qui présentent un excès de peau sous le menton et autour de la zone du cou qui a perdu de son élasticité.
  • Les patients qui présentent un excès de graisse sous le menton et autour de la zone du cou.
  •  

Quels sont les types de chirurgie de lifting du cou ?

 

Il existe trois types d'opérations de lifting du cou, chacune différant par l'endroit où l'incision est pratiquée.

 

  • L'incision est pratiquée derrière l'oreille comme pour un lifting.
  • Sous le menton sans enlever de peau et sans qu'il soit nécessaire de pratiquer une incision devant l'oreille.
  • Sous le menton par une incision en zig-zag.
  •  

Quels sont les éléments à prendre en compte avant le lifting du cou ?

 

Avant l'opération de lifting du cou, il est recommandé aux patients de prendre les mesures suivantes :

 

  • Les patients doivent se rendre à l'hôpital un jour avant l'opération pour que les tests préopératoires soient effectués.
  • Les patients doivent arrêter de fumer et de consommer de l'alcool au moins deux semaines avant l'opération afin d'atténuer le risque de formation d'un caillot sanguin.
  • Les patients doivent éviter les médicaments contenant de l'aspirine ou de l'ibuprofène (Advil, Motrin IB, autres) pendant les deux semaines précédant et suivant l'opération. Ces médicaments peuvent augmenter le risque d'hémorragie interne. Les patients doivent confirmer chaque médicament avec leur coordinateur de patients.

 

Le visage du patient sera également examiné et mesuré, et le chirurgien pourra faire prendre des photographies afin que le patient puisse comparer son apparence avant et après l'opération de lifting du cou.

 

Comment l'opération de lifting du cou est-elle pratiquée ?

 

L'opération de lifting du cou peut être réalisée de différentes manières :

 

  • Une incision peut être pratiquée derrière l'oreille ou alternativement devant et derrière l'oreille, à l'instar d'une incision de lifting. Dans cette technique, l'excès de peau du cou est retiré par l'incision pratiquée derrière l'oreille.
  • Une autre méthode consiste à créer une incision sous le menton sans enlever de peau et sans qu'il soit nécessaire de pratiquer une incision devant l'oreille. La libération de la peau du cou des muscles sous-jacents permet à la peau de se contracter sans ablation de peau. Le muscle platysma est également resserré par l'incision du menton.
  • Chez les personnes âgées, la peau est retirée directement sous le menton par une incision en zig-zag. Aucune incision n'est donc pratiquée devant ou derrière l'oreille. Cela permet de réduire la complexité de l'intervention.

L'excès de peau et de graisse est ensuite soigneusement retiré. Les tissus et la peau sont réalignés et fixés à l'aide de sutures.

 

Quels sont les éléments à prendre en compte après une opération de lifting du cou ?

 

Après une opération de lifting du cou, les patients peuvent présenter un gonflement et des ecchymoses. Il est recommandé aux patients de suivre les recommandations suivantes :

 

  • Utiliser un vêtement de compression spécial qui leur sera fourni pour réduire le gonflement.
  • En gardant la tête droite et en évitant de tordre ou de plier le cou.
  • Protéger leur peau du soleil et en utilisant régulièrement de la crème solaire.

 

Il faut compter plusieurs semaines, voire plusieurs mois, pour que l'enflure et les ecchymoses disparaissent et jusqu'à six mois pour que les lignes d'incision s'estompent complètement.

 

Quels sont les risques de l'opération de lifting du cou ?

 

Les risques liés à l'opération de lifting du cou comprennent, entre autres, les suivants :

 

  • Un hématome, c'est-à-dire un saignement sous la peau.
  • Une cicatrice épaisse
  • Des caillots de sang
  • Une infection
  • Lésion nerveuse
  • Perte de peau
  • Risques liés à l'anesthésie

Un autre risque possible de l'opération de lifting du cou est que le patient ne soit pas satisfait des résultats. Dans ce cas, une reprise chirurgicale est possible.

Tal reviewed Neck lift Dr Emre

Disclaimer: Only just had this done, so it may need to be updated once I have healed fully. Nurses; they were one of the best parts about my stay. All the nurses (especially female) were amazing. I had 1 nurse (blonde, maybe head nurse, night shift) she was so great and really looked after me and spoke good enough English. They checked on me almost every 3 hours, gave me so many IVs and made sure I was really ok. Clean: I didn’t notice anything being unclean or unkept. It was all clean to a good standard- better than the uk. Surgeon: I had two consultations with him. He spoke good enough English also. He did an amazing job. My scars aren’t even visible really and I have just had it done. My jawline is snatched and so well defined. He did set expectations around my surgery so I’m going to wait to see the full result. I only wished he would’ve been there when I woke up to explain what happened during surgery. Results : it’s been 5 days, but my jawline is so very defined and the skin is completely gone. So happy right now with it but i know it will drop Things that could’ve been better: probs just the surgeon explaining what happened to me in surgery lol and i think the medical sheets (advice post op) it’s confusing and contradicting- etc one page said take brown tape off in a week the other page said 3 weeks. One page said wear head compress for a month one said 3 months- it needs to be rewritten. Other than that, no complaints. for the price, surgery and experience I’d go with them, they really did take care of everything for me.

Gema Somacarrera reviewed Incredible Company

I would like to write a very sincere review about Booking Surgery.com After being botched 2 years ago by another company in Izmir I couldn't take any chances of this happening again. I had a extended tummy tuck and breast uplift 2 years ago but unfortunatelly i had serious complications due to malpractice. I was leff in a hotel the day after surgery with little or no care at all. After doing a lot of research I came across Booking Surgery. The first thing that attracted me was that they offer full hospital stay. I was recomended to contact David Tucker and within a few hours of me contacting him he got in touch. David listened to my story and everything I went through previously, he was very compasionate and promised Booking Surgery will do their best to find me the best surgeon to perform the corrective surgery I need it. After several communications and assestments I chose Dr Emin based in excellent results, references and meeting him personally as I travelled to meet him before making my final decision. I travel to Turkey on the 5th January 2025 and as soon as I arrived at the hospital I was greeted my Jake, their translator and taken to my hospital room. I had all my pre-op test straight away plus, scan, ultra sounds and mamograms to look for any internal damage from previous surgery. The next morning Dr Emin came with his team for the assesment and markings ready for surgery. I knew it was going to be a very complicated surgery and didn't have high expectations at all. I put my trust in Dr Emin and hoped for the best. When I woke up after 10 hours in surgery I was told by Dr Emin that it was a very sucessful outcome and that he was extremely happy with the results. Even though I was unable to see anything I was already so happy. I was able to see the results the next day, I couldn't believe the incredible work Dr Emin had done, just over the mon. I will never be able to thank such an amazing surgeon enough for the incredible work he performed on me. My stay at the hospital was outstanding, Dr Emin came to see me and check my wounds every day, the head nurse Secil was so efficient and made sure I was well look after, she will check on me all the time. All the staff from cleaners, translators, nurses were outstanding. The love, care and attention I have recieved from everyone at Booking Surgery has been incredible. I am now back home and it has been 10 days since my operation. I feel amazing and I have just seen my whole body, i could cry. Perfection and i am so tinny and the shape is incredible. I am so in love with the work in my breast after losing my niple and tissue on my right breast 2 years ago. Dr Emin managed to reconstruct my breast and now matches the other breast. I don't know how to express so much gratitude. Dr Emin is GOD, he will never know how much he has already improve my mental health and how much my life and confidence will change. Please do not hesitate to book with this amazing company, they work with high end surgeons, not ordinary ones. David Turker my cordinator made a big part to make this a success so please do not hesitate to contact him for your initial assesment. Can't wait to fully recover and return for my thighs lift. Thank you with all my heart Booking Surgery and everyone involved ♥️

Stuart Jamieson reviewed Gastric sleave

The whole experience was very good when I arrived i started to panic but the staff settled me down. Rooms were very very good compared to what the nhs offer as well as tv with netflix.

Emily reviewed Experience was great

Experience was great. Whenever I asked for anything like pain killers, anti sickness etc I received it within minutes. All the staff were lovely and couldn’t do anything more to help me. Bruce was my co-ordinator he went above and beyond to settle my mind and my family’s mind with us being in 2 different countries. Thank you.

Kayley leask reviewed After I was so worried about travelling…
