Silk Touch Cosmetic Surgery & Medical Spa - Blog

 Every Tuesday we share with you some of our favorite patient stories and transformations. The blogs feature treatments such as dermal fillers and injectables, to Smartlipo cases and even success stories from our skin care patients.

Through this series, we hope to give you a glimpse into the treatments and patients that make our practice unique. It’s our belief that medical aesthetic providers should be evaluated by their experience and treatment results, not by who has the lowest price.  Here you will only find real people, with real results.

Patient: Female – Boise, ID

Treatment: Smartlipo Neck

This Transformation Tuesday highlights our Smartlipo Neck procedures. In this case, she wanted a tighter, more defined jaw line - a very common concern of both women and men. As we age, gravity takes it toll and the volume we once enjoyed in other areas of our face migrates down to the jowl area.

Smartlipo of the neck is a quick in-office procedure, with minimum downtime.  Brusing is very slight, and most people return to work within days of the treatment.

She is thrilled with her results! What do you think?

Refine Your Neck and Take Years off Your Appearance

Whether you’ve never really liked the look of your neck or it’s starting to become loose and less defined with time, Smartlipo for the Neck is a less-invasive way of recontouring it so that your neck looks younger, freshening up your overall appearance. Reality TV star Kris Jenner was open about her recent neck surgery, which eliminated slack skin on her neck for a younger look.

Is it the right procedure for you?

The Benefit
It eliminates small amounts of saggy skin and fat and redefines the angles from the chin to the neck. There is little downtime involved in comparision to traditional liposuction. Neck procedures have become one of the most popular options here at Silk Touch.

If loose skin is more of your concern, then Venus Freeze skin tightening (or a combination of Smartlipo and Venus Freeze) may be the best solution.

Before and After Pictures

Refining necks through Smartlipo or Venus Freeze is becoming one of Dr.Kerr’s most requested services, bringing international clients here to Silk Touch - from Germany to Brazil. To see examples of our work, check out a few of our before and after pictures.

Pricing

Smartlipo and Venus Freeze prices vary by individual, as all treatments are custom. During the initial consultation we will meet with you to discuss pricing, budget restrictions, finance options, and expections/concerns. Consultations can take anywhere from 30 minutes – 1 ½ hours. We understand this can be a life changing decision, and we want you to feel as comfortable as possible with your decision.

Have you tried everything you can to lose weight – but just can’t seem to lose that oh so pesky “double chin" or extra neck waddle? If so, your not alone. Many men and women face the challenge of wanting to slim down their face and lose that droopy neck, but just can’t or don’t know how. Some people hide it with scarves and turtle necks (which you wouldn’t want to wear year round) , while others go with traditional liposuction which can takes weeks of down time to recover. Are you tired of hiding it, but not willing to pay the cost (both financially and time wise) of traditional liposuction?

By using technologies such as SmartLipo and VASER, we can help you can say goodbye to neck weight forever and hello to new confidence! 

The face and neck are usually the first features we notice when we meet someone new, so even the littlest improvements in this area can create a dramatic change. A firm, trim neck gives the face a more youthful look and sometimes just having this procedure done provides an incentive and the confidence you need to make healthier lifestyle choices, therefore benefiting you even more in the long run.

At Silk Touch Med Spa, we use the latest technologies to bring you the best results with the least recovery time. VASER, combined with SmartLipo liposuction allows Dr.Brian Kerr to work with such precision that he can shape delicate areas, such as the chin and neck.  Using this new technology allows the nerves and blood vessels to go largely undisturbed, which causes patients to report minimal pain and bruising – less recovery time!

The results of this procedure are fantastic – take a look for yourself!

The most common concerns with this procedure have to do with the recovery time. “Will I have to have my face wrapped up for weeks?” “How long do I have to take off work?” “Will I need to get someone to watch my kids?”

Recovery time for this procedure is minimal, but is different for each patient. Patients find themselves back to work 1-3 days after the procedure. Usually, an elastic compression headband is worn during the first 18 to 36 hours after surgery. After that, the headband is used at night while you sleep to assist in the healing process. In the early years of liposuction, surgeons required patients to wear compression garments from 2-6 weeks! This is just one of the many benefits of using SmartLipo and VASER technologies.

Other benefits include:

• Gently targets trouble spots where fat collects and skin becomes lax

• Minimally invasive alternative to surgery

• No general anesthetic needed
