You’re a very thorough and honest doctor.
Thank you for your kind words, Beach Town Reseller!
That's why I try my best to take care of my neck as well. I have seen women with super good faces and complexion but their neglected necks gave it all away :(
Hi Dr. So if someone from the west coast travels to you for the suture neck lift, how long would they have to wait before flying back home. Of course this is based on your confirmation that the suture neck lift is an appropriate procedure for the individual. Thank you.
If you have a facelift in your 50s, how does your skin age after? Will it sag again as you age more, and is that somewhat mitigated by your prior facelift? Can you have another facelift?
Hi Anna Te,
Sagging skin, soft tissue, and muscle are all tightened by a facelift, but it sagging due to aging does continue. You can have another facelift later on. You can review this video about the factors that affect the longevity of a facelift - ruclips.net/video/ZNQ3B9c_hjE/видео.html
Where are you guys located in NYC? I am noticing the first signs of aging on my neck. I’m 38 and it’s really bothering me. How can I book a consultation?
Hi Rafelina Collado,
We are located at 633 3rd Ave. in Manhattan, which you can call at (212) 265-8877. You can also reach us through www.prasadcosmeticsurgery.com, www.puffyeyes.com, or www.eyelifts.com by filling out a contact form, and we will get back to you.
In the meantime, you can refer to this more recent video about the options for neck rejuvenation - ruclips.net/video/S210_81tHlE/видео.html
I’m 31 I’m platisma bands are showing I have 5 heavy deep necklace lines I really need a neck lift I can’t even wear my hair up
Hi Lbaby Tutorials,
Sorry to hear about your problem. Since you are still very young so you shouldn't have loose skin, it may be preferable to use a neurotoxin like Botox to relax the platysma instead. Neck lines can also treated non-surgically in someone your age with laser skin tightening. You can refer to this video about non-surgical, and surgical treatment options for the neck - ruclips.net/video/S210_81tHlE/видео.html
At a certain age if you want the desired effect you have to go under the knife. No doubt. I had a neck and face lift and upper lip lift. However this did not fully address everything. I have the abysmal platysmal issue and am going to my plastic surgeon tomorrow to discuss what can be done. These fellas aren't miracle workers. They don't have a magic wand. So the patient has to appreciate there can still be areas even a deep plane facelift and necklift cannot address. Thank you doctor for the info.
You're welcome, Denise Paulsen! Best of luck with your consultation!
I'm surprised your surgeon didn't address the platismal bands when he did the face/neck lift.
you are so smart & adorable & have an amazing smile! where can i get this done in Boston?
Thank you for your kind words, K P! Although I do know colleagues in Boston, I’m not aware of their aesthetic styles or surgical techniques. I suggest you look at their before and after results of their neck work, and talk to some to see who resonates with you. I hope this helps you.
This is so informative. I had MyEllevate to include the cutting of my hands and several Profound treatments. Lots of money and still have not achieved the results I want. I still have some minor skin laxity in the front of the neck still so I think I should have saved all that money and torture lol for the main event, a neck lift like she suggested in the very beginning of my journey. I am about to schedule it with Dr S Rostami here in Fairfax Va. any advice?
Hi Pamekay,
Beyond possible treatments featured in the video, I can only give specific advice after a physical examination, so it is good you are seeing a doctor locally for a proper examination, and determining what will best help you after the examination.
You did not say how long the suture suspension last? Thank you for your channel.
Hi Renate Scheepers,
It does depend on the patient, but usually it can last more than a year. I hope you are finding the other videos informative as well!
hello, dr. it was a wonderful video, very informative and comprehensible. at 3.44 you showed a photo of a woman with laser treatment done (non-surgical laser skin treatment). can you tell me what kind of laser and how many times it was used in her case? because the result was excellent. thank you.
Hi 75vasso,
Thank you for your kind words! However, at the example at 3:44, there is a disclaimer that this is not my patient, but from the laser company Fotona, so I don't the details of her case. I hope this clarifies things for you.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD thank you very much for your answer, you also have helped me in the past, i really appreciate it. what is the best laser for non-surgical neck and jawl lifting, in your opinion? thank you once again.
What non ablative lasers do you recommend for next tightening?
Hi @SashaWolffMedia,
It’s important to remember that the laser itself does not cause complications like facial volume loss, nor does it determine successful results, but rather the experience and judgment of the doctor using the laser or other device. The device is just a tool, and it’s the doctor’s judgment using the tool that separates great results from ineffectiveness, or potential complications. You can refer to this video about it - ruclips.net/video/kZuz3PoTi0I/видео.html
This was really helpful! I do not want to do a neck lift or facelift. Is suture suspension expensive?
Hi Angie Taylor,
Relatively speaking, a suture suspension would cost less than a full neck lift as it's a less involved procedure. We are introducing a new, minimally invasive neck rejuvenation procedure soon that goes beyond a suture suspension, but still not as involved as full neck lift, or a full face and neck lift, so watch this space to see it soon. I hope this clarifies things for you.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD
Ok, thank you. I will.
You're welcome,@@angietaylor5256
It seems like you are Indian.. Please let me know when you will be visiting to India.
Hi sangeeta arora,
I am proud to be Indian, but I was born, raised, educated, trained, and only practice medicine in the US. You are always welcome to have treatment here in the US like many or our Indian and international patients who come every day to see us.
Hello Doctor, what is your opinion on a Direct Neck incision to remove the fat and tighten the muscle of the neck. I see many pictures of men having this procedure done and they look awesome after. I'm a 56 year old woman who had a previous superficial parotid tumor removed and I was told by several plastic surgeons that they are unable to do a face lift on me (nerve damage risk is too high). I was also told the direct method is very safe and faster healing time using a z-plasty. I was informed the scar would be permanent but the extra skin would be gone. Is it worth it to replace a tighter firmer neck for a visible scar that would be there the rest of my life? Since I'm not a man who can hide it easy with a beard hair. Thanks!
Hi @TJay-dy8pv,
I will have a new video soon about how a neck lift can be done with only small incisions that aren't visible soon after the procedure. I would have to see you in consultation to see if you are a candidate for this procedure, or if you would require a more extensive neck lift at your age. I hope this clarifies things for you.
I heard they were new bards used in the neck with good results, is that so?
Hi Tara T,
Barbed sutures are used in threadlifts, which only lift the skin, and not the deeper tissue. I don't perform threadlifts because if you only lift the skin, and not the deeper tissue, results won't last as long. I hope this clarifies things for you.
You're in N.Y. Dr. Presad? I'm on the W. coast.
Cool. I want it. Is it cheaper than a nc lift?
Hi suzy Hall,
Yes, we are located in Manhattan and Garden City, Long Island. A suture suspension neck lift costs less than a full surgical neck lift, but a physical exam is needed to determine what is the right procedure for you. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Amiya Prasad, M.D.
Thank u. So I'd have to d o 2 apt.s and be there several days?
my drooopiness is due to being to dang fat at times in my life-thin skin-and at my age my jaw bone has lessened.

Is the surgery very expensive? Can I have rough estimate for face and neck lift surgery in Rupees?
Hi Rashmi Junnarkar,
There no set costs for neck lifts as the extent of surgery or other treatment varies with individuals. Our offices are located in Manhattan, New York City which you can call at (212) 265-8877, and Garden City, Long Island at (516) 742-4636.

I hope to hear from you soon.
After the neck procedure how many days till I could fly?
Hi GM Jo,
I do have my patients restrict flying for 1-2 weeks, depending on the procedure as we want to ensure first there are no issues with swelling, bleeding, or infection after surgery. For a more extensive neck lift, even when coupled with a facelift, I would have patients not fly for about two weeks after the procedure. For a less extensive suture suspension neck lift, I would have patients wait at least a week to fly, usually after the sutures are removed. The 2 week flying restriction is already takes into account faster recovery using local anesthesia with LITE IV sedation, as using general anesthesia for these procedures would take longer recovery, and a longer flying restriction. I hope this clarifies things for you.
hello Doc,
Would you say that accutite treatment to the jowels and neck would improve lower face and neck?
Thank Mary from Texas
Hi Mary Harris,
Although I don't use Accutite in my practice, it is possible to tighten jowls and perhaps reduce fat that's causing them with a thermal treatment, as well as tighten skin around the lower face and neck. However, I would have to perform a physical exam to assess your situation before recommending specific treatments. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Thank you for taking the time to answer.
You're welcome,@@maryharris2871!
What is suture suspension? Is it like Threadlift?
Hi Giselle Baham,
A suture suspension is different from a threadlift, as threadlifts only lift the skin. A suture suspension also lifts the internal tissue, but is not as extensive as a full neck lift. I hope this clarifies things for you.
@@AmiyaPrasadMD yes it does! Thank you kindly
You're welcome,@@OolongG952
How can a neck lift help a person with double chin over the age of 50?
Hi Ana Cruz,
A double chin is likely best treated with facial liposculpture/ liposuction to reduce the fat, then perhaps a neck lift if laxity of the skin under the chin persists. I would need to physically assess your situation before giving a definitive recommendation. I hope this clarifies things for you.
Do you ever perform surgeries here on the West Coast? Or do you have collages in LA whom you would recommend?
Hi B K,
Sorry, I don't practice in the West Coast. I suggest you look for a doctor who you can trust, and whose work and aesthetic style you like through their before and after pictures. I hope this helps you.
