While neck lifts are an effective option for improving sagging skin, many patients inquire about less costly alternatives with less downtime. Smartlipo, or laser assisted liposuction, offers two procedures in one: fat melting and skin tightening. The in-office procedure requires only light sedation and can usually be completed in a couple hours or less. Recovery is relatively quick; many patients can return to work the next day and continue to observe tightenin effects for up to six months afterward. Schedule a complimentary consultation to find out if you're a candidate.
