Drooping neck tissues and loose neck skin are among the most vivid tell-tale signs of aging. Weight loss, genetics, environmental factors, and the simple passing of time can cause these signs to appear sooner than we’d like. When the skin beneath the chin becomes stretched and loose, it can begin to resemble a turkey’s wattle, and no one wants to have a neck similar to their main Thanksgiving dish.
For patients who would like to eliminate their “turkey neck” before gathering with family and friends for the holidays, Dr. Rodriguez offers liposuction and/or facelift surgery to reverse the signs of aging and improve the contours of the neck.
Tickle Lipo
Tickle Lipo (called Easyshape in Mexico) is a revolutionary, FDA-approved liposuction procedure that can eliminate excess fat deposits that hang down in the neck. Local anesthesia is used rather than general anesthesia, which contributes to the increased safety of this procedure.
Infrasonic technology vibrates the liposuction cannula (small hollow tube) as fat is removed through it, and these vibrations interfere with pain signals and reportedly feel similar to being tickled. Tickle Lipo allows for stubborn fat to be removed from delicate areas such as the neck with special care not to harm the surrounding tissues, which provides for a safer procedure with a faster recovery.
Facelift
Facelift surgery can address loose skin in the neck as well as signs of aging around the mouth and cheeks. Dr. Rodriguez offers the traditional facelift and the minimally invasive facelift, which differ based on the incision locations and lengths. For both techniques, the underlying muscles of the face are tightened, and excess skin and fat are removed to reveal a more youthful appearance in the face and neck.
Whether you have minimal signs of aging or would like to dramatically rejuvenate your appearance, Dr. Jaime Rodriguez Sierra offers a range of procedures to restore a more youthful appearance with natural-looking results. Please call (888) 478-4690 or fill out our online contact form today for more information. During your initial consultation, Dr. Rodriguez can help determine the best procedure(s) to meet your unique needs.

Men and women who have wrinkles and sagging skin in their lower face, jowls, and neck are ideal candidates for a traditional facelift. This procedure can make you appear up to ten years younger by literally lifting and removing excess skin and tightening the muscles beneath it. It is often combined with eyelid surgery or brow lift surgery to provide even more stunning results.
But even with the increased confidence a traditional surgical facelift brings, many are concerned with the cost, length of recovery time (about two weeks), and longer scars that are often involved. Over the years, Dr. Rodriguez Sierra has listened to these concerns from his patients and now offers a wonderful alternative that will meet their needs: a minimally invasive facelift. Since the minimally invasive facelift involves only a few short incisions, recovery time is faster, and scars are much smaller than with a full surgical facelift. In addition, the procedure is typically more affordable and also takes less time to perform.
Advantages of a Minimally Invasive Facelift
- Shorter scars
- Less time in surgery
- Shorter recovery time
- Affordable
Dr. Rodriguez Sierra can completely customize the minimally invasive facelift by combining a number of techniques depending on the patient’s individual needs. The procedure can be performed with the either the help of a laser or a specially designed viewing scope (endoscope) that is made for small incisions. In addition, other procedures or treatments can be performed at the same time that will tighten the skin or fill facial hollows and wrinkles that the minimally invasive facelift may not target. The result is a more defined jawline and a refreshed, wrinkle-free, natural-looking facial appearance.
Whether you are seeking a subtle improvement or a total facial transformation, Dr. Rodriguez Sierra is equipped with the skills and experience necessary to provide the most natural-looking results. During your consultation, he will assess your needs to determine the treatment or procedure that is right for you.
