Facelift & Neck Lift
The face eventually develops sagging skin and wrinkles. Hereditary factors and poor skincare routines also contribute to facial wrinkles. People who smoke or lead extremely stressful lives may have facial wrinkles even in their 30s and 40s. Fine lines can also appear on the neck, and fat can accumulate under the chin.

Many people try various anti-aging creams or treatments to counter the effects of aging. However, cosmetic surgery is the only solution that produces the most effective and reliable results. The facelift and neck lift are two procedures that provide relief from even severe wrinkles and drooping skin.

Facelift Surgery
The facelift is a procedure that can tighten loose skin and contour the face. This surgery can remove light to severe wrinkles and lines around the mouth and the nose, including the nasolabial folds, marionette lines, parentheses lines, and perioral lines.

The procedure involves an incision in the hairline that extends behind the ears. Dr. Ulm then works on lifting and repositioning the tissues through this incision. The deeper muscles are lifted in order to provide an overall more youthful look. Finally, surgical sutures are used to close the incision.

Post-operative swelling and bruising after the facelift subside within weeks of the surgery. You can resume your normal routine within 10 to 15 days after your surgery. You will need to wait a little longer to resume heavy physical activities. Rest is important during recovery, and it will be important to avoid sun exposure for a time. Once the healing is complete and all swelling has ameliorated, the improved look of the face will be evident.

Mini Facelift Surgery
The mini facelift is a less-invasive variation on the standard traditional facelift. It is best for patients who are in need of subtler facial rejuvenation and do not have a large amount of sagging skin. It takes less time to perform than the standard facelift and allows for a shorter and more comfortable recovery period with less bruising and swelling.

During a mini facelift, only the lower face and neck are targeted. This means that it can specifically focus on slight jowls and other minor issues in the lower face and neck.

After anesthesia is administered, incisions are made above the ears. These stretch down in front of the ears to curve around the earlobes. The underlying tissues are tightened, and then sutures are used to close the incisions.

Neck Lift Surgery
Neck-lift surgery addresses signs of aging in the neck and the jawline. It can smooth out wrinkles, tighten sagging skin, remove excess fat, and eliminate a double chin and a turkey-wattle neck.

The incisions for neck lift surgery are generally behind the ears. An incision under the chin may also be necessary depending on individual requirements. Through these incisions, Dr. Ulm will remove excess skin and fat as necessary and will tighten sagging muscle tissue with internal sutures. Once the neck is sculpted, the incisions are closed with sutures.

The recovery time after a neck lift is usually around fifteen days. After this time, you may be able to resume all your normal activities, including work and exercise. Once the swelling subsides, you will be able to see your smoother and more youthful neck profile.
Combining a Facelift and Neck Lift
Sagging skin and wrinkles on the neck can take away from the results of the facelift. Most people opt for a combination facelift and neck lift to achieve more comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Dr. Ulm can recommend the best course of surgical action depending on your requirements.

Facelift Cost
The price of a rhytidectomy procedure involves many considerations. Cost is determined by factors like the amount of time required to perform the surgery, the type of anesthesia used, and the techniques employed. 

Your Consultation
The results from the facelift and the neck lift are quite long lasting. If you maintain a good skincare routine, you’ll be able to enjoy the benefits of your procedure for years to come.

Fat Transfer
Fat transfer to either the breast or face is a cutting-edge procedure that continues to grow in popularity. A fat transfer, also called fat grafting or autologous fat transfer, takes excess fat from one area of the body and uses it to enhance another area. If you’re curious about fat transfer to the breast or face in Charleston, SC, double board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jason Ulm and his staff will be happy to help.

Natural Breast Enhancements via Fat Transfer
Patients in search of a way to enhance their breast size and projection without implants can benefit from a fat transfer breast augmentation. This technique is often seen as more natural than implant-based augmentation. It involves injections of fat in specific areas of the breasts to increase their volume.

Dr. Ulm performs natural breast enhancements via fat transfer for patients who have enough excess fat to be harvested and are not looking to increase their breast size significantly.
Facial Fat Transfer
For patients looking to restore a more youthful facial appearance without traditional dermal filler products or a surgical facelift, the facial fat transfer is an excellent solution. It uses fat cells to naturally fill in age lines, folds, depressions, and acne scars. Frown lines, crow’s feet, hollow temples, and other signs of aging can be treated with this method.

What Is the Fat Grafting Process Like?
A fat transfer procedure starts with harvesting the fat that will be used to create new volume in the breasts or face. This is an autologous procedure, meaning the fat is taken from the patient’s own body. Autologous procedures have lower rates of rejection and allergic reactions.

Fat can be harvested from any area where there is excess fat; common areas include the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks.

Harvesting fat is accomplished through a technique called liposuction. This starts with anesthesia to numb the chosen area. A cannula (a thin tube) is inserted into the area, and vacuum suction is then employed to remove the excess fatty tissue through the cannula.

The harvested fatty tissue is then purified, a process involving removal of any excess materials and dead and damaged fat cells. This leaves the healthy fat cells for grafting. Healthy cells have a better chance of connecting to the blood supply in their new location, which leads to longer-lasting results.

Finally, the healthy fat cells are injected into the breasts to create new volume in specific locations or into the face to fill in wrinkles and depressions. This process takes a high degree of technical skill.
I had breast cancer in 2017, Dr. Ulm has done my reconstruction, fat grafting (twice), a lift and implant on the non cancer breast. He makes you feel like the only patient in the world. He was always patient and kind to me even though I may have been a pain. I had plenty of plastic surgeon options closer to home but I drove and still drive the 2 hrs to see him. Although because of the cancer my breasts will never look like the originals, he did a fantastic job of making them look the same as each other and I love them now.

The Benefits of Fat Transfer
Because the fat is taken from areas of the body where there is excess, the treatment has the added benefits of body contouring. In addition, using the body’s own fat means there is no dealing with foreign objects, which decreases any risks associated with the procedure.

Fat transfer offers long-lasting benefits with natural-looking results!

Fat Transfer is a great option for patients looking for a comprehensive body contouring procedure like a mommy makeover.

Healing After a Fat Transfer
The harvest and grafting areas will have a minor degree of swelling and bruising for a time, but these issues will fade with the help of cold compresses. For breast augmentation with fat grafting, patients will need to wear a supportive bra without underwire.

Most patients can go back to work within a week from the date of the fat transfer to the breast/face. Physically taxing activities like sports and heavy exercise should be avoided for several weeks.

It will be important to be gentle with the grafting areas since the fat cells will still be settling into their new locations. The greater number of fat cells that survive the transfer, the more volume will remain in the area.

Fat Transfer Breast/Face Cost
The cost of a plastic surgery procedure can feel like a prohibitive factor to many patients. At Ulm Plastic Surgery, we work with patients regarding their facial fat transfer cost or fat transfer to the breast cost.

Neck Liposuction
Neck Liposuction
Conveniently located to serve Charleston, SC
Neck liposuction in Charleston, SC, focuses on removing stubborn fat from under the chin. Fat accumulation in this area is very common. It comes about as a result of causes ranging from weight gain to fat distribution and genetics. A neck liposuction procedure is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures for addressing this excess fat.

Many people, even those who are at a healthy weight, have excess stubborn fat under their chin and on the top portion of their neck. Often referred to as a double chin, it gives the neck an out-out-shape appearance and keeps it from looking slender. Fat deposits in the subcutaneous tissues of the neck are very hard to get rid of without surgical assistance.

Dr. Jason Ulm can use a variety of liposuction techniques to remove this stubborn fat, which cannot be addressed through regular diet or exercise. Neck lipo permanently gets rid of the fat and leaves the patient’s neck with a slimmer and more defined look.

Are You an Ideal Candidate?
An ideal neck liposuction candidate will have good skin tone, elasticity, and muscle definition. Since the procedure is very safe, it can be undergone by anyone in their late teens and early adulthood ranging to people in their 40s or 50s.

Dr. Ulm will first examine the patient and decide whether the treatment is suitable for them. If he notices that you also have sagging skin or other aesthetic neck issues, he may instead recommend neck lift surgery to address these.

What to Expect During Neck Liposuction
This form of neck plastic surgery removes fat stored beneath the skin without any changes to the outer skin and its tone. Dr. Ulm can use different neck liposuction techniques for fat removal depending on every individual patient’s goals and physical anatomy.

The patient is first given local anesthesia to numb the area. One or two very small incisions are then made under the chin or behind the ears. A tube called a cannula is inserted through these incisions. Excess fat is suctioned out through the tube using medical suction. Finally, the incisions are closed for quick healing.

Neck Liposuction Recovery
The recovery and downtime for this fat-removal procedure is relatively short and easy. Everyday physical activities can be continued starting the day after the procedure. However, vigorous exercise is not recommended until cleared by Dr. Ulm. Keeping’s one head elevated is vital for reduction of bruising and swelling.

To get the best results after neck liposuction, make sure to listen carefully to Dr. Ulm’s post-surgical care directions. This will help avoid any concerns and give the best possible outcome.

Expected Results
After the neck lipo procedure, patients can expect sharper angles along the jaw and a fitter and more youthful appearance. The neckline looks more contoured and sculpted, and the double chin has vanished.

How Much Does Neck Liposuction Cost?
The cost of neck liposuction is impacted by the amount of tissue removed from the area. The price of neck lipo is also affected by the type of anesthesia used and the overall time needed to perform the procedure.

Liposuction
Liposuction Charleston, SC
Conveniently located to serve Charleston, SC
Patients with stubborn body fat can eliminate it effectively with the help of liposuction in Charleston, SC, from Dr. Jason Ulm. People often struggle with targeting excess fat using traditional methods of fat reduction like dieting and exercise. These patients can greatly benefit from a direct fat removal procedure like lipo.

At Ulm Plastic Surgery , we can use liposuction to reshape and redefine your figure. We have provided countless patients with the results they are looking for through liposuction.

Am I a Good Candidate for Liposuction?
It is important that you understand that liposuction is not a weight-loss treatment. Liposuction is a surgical body-contouring treatment. It is designed for the precise removal of excess fat from specifically targeted areas of the body.

The best candidates for liposuction in Charleston, SC are those who are generally in good health. Double-board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jason Ulm will perform an evaluation of your current health and medical history will be performed to determine if you are healthy enough to undergo liposuction.

If you have loose sagging skin, liposuction may not be enough to provide you with the results you are looking for. Procedures like a tummy tuck can be performed to eliminate excess fat and loose skin.
Treatment Areas
Liposuction is a safe and effective option for eliminating excess fat in areas around the body. Lipo can be used to improve the appearance of a number of regions of the body, including the neck, upper arms, chest, chin, abdomen, backs, flank, inner and outer thighs, and buttocks.
Neck
Bulging neck fat makes a person look lethargic and out of shape. Neck liposuction is a precise way of contouring and shaping the neck by suctioning out excess fat.

Chest
Liposuction can be used to reduce the appearance of “man boobs” in men suffering from the condition known as pseudogynecomastia. Taking fatty tissue out of the chest addresses oversized male breasts and gives the male chest a more masculine appearance.

Flanks
The area between the hips and the ribs is called the flanks. In this area, people often develop pockets of fat called love handles. With liposuction, these can be shrunk, eliminating the overhang that appears when wearing tight pants.

Inner Thighs
When the inner thighs rub together, inner thigh lipo can be used to contour away stubborn thigh fat and create more space between the thighs.

Outer Thighs
The outer thighs accumulate unwanted excess fat and then stubbornly hang onto it. This creates the appearance of saddlebags. We can sculpt away your saddlebags using liposuction surgery.

Upper Arms
Sections of sagging fat on the upper arms are often called “bat wings” or “bingo wings.” Liposuction can be used to contour these away for shapelier arms.

Chin
The area right below the chin is called the submental region. Excess submental fat creates the appearance of a double chin, which can make a person look out of shape. Lipo addresses submental fat for a more sculpted profile.

Abdomen
Excess abdominal fat is incredibly stubborn. If you’re trying to say goodbye to a pooch or lose that spare tire, liposuction can remove that excess fat and give you a tighter, trimmer tummy.

Back
Upper back fat creates rolls around the bra straps, while lower back fat bunches over jeans. Both of these types of back fat can be easily dealt with using liposuction.

Buttocks
To achieve better overall proportions, excess fatty tissue can be removed from the buttocks through buttocks lipo. This makes one’s butt look more sculpted and contoured.

The Liposuction Procedure
Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jason Ulm performs a form of standard tumescent liposuction using power-assisted equipment. The use of power-assisted equipment makes the process quicker and gentler on the body, which minimizes discomfort and shortens the recovery period.

The area being treated with liposuction will be injected with a tumescent fluid that contains a local anesthetic. This fluid reduces bleeding during the procedure, makes the removal of fat easier, and reduces the amount of bruising that occurs afterward.

Once the area is filled with tumescent fluid, a long thin tube called a cannula is inserted into the area through a small incision. Dr. Ulm will carefully manipulate the cannula to loosen the fat from the surrounding tissue.

The fat and tumescent fluid will then be drained from the treated area through the cannula. Once it has all been removed, the incisions will be closed and dressed.

Recovering from Your Lipo Procedure
In certain cases, a compression garment may be worn during the recovery period. The amount of discomfort experienced will vary depending on the scope of the liposuction, however, Dr. Ulm and his staff will provide you with the appropriate medication to minimize post-operative pain. Swelling and some bruising is to be expected and will steadily dissipate over the course of your recovery.

Most patients will need to wait one week before being able to return to work. It will take about two to three weeks before you are able to return to your normal activities. You may need to wait four to six weeks before you can engage in more strenuous activities.

Liposuction Cost
The price of lipo varies based on the details of the procedure. Liposuction cost is determined by the number of treatment areas, the size of each area, the length of the procedure, the anesthesia chosen, and many other factors. We offer financing through Prosper Healthcare Lending.

Tummy Tuck Charleston, SC
The tummy tuck, otherwise known as an abdominoplasty, is one of the more popular surgical procedures available today. The goal of the procedure is to remove excess fat and skin around the abdomen, as well as tighten lax muscles that may have stretched or separated during pregnancy. Many people looking for a tummy tuck in Charleston, SC, turn to double-board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jason Ulm for his expertise and specialized training regarding this procedure.

In many cases, a surgical solution provides the only means by which to correct loose skin and muscle in the abdominal region. Attempting to reduce and tighten the midsection can be an even greater challenge post-pregnancy. For these patients, the abdominoplasty is especially effective.

Tummy Tuck Candidates
If you have been struggling to improve the appearance of your abdomen using traditional methods, it may be time to consider getting a tummy tuck.

One of the most common reasons why people struggle to improve the appearance of their abdomen is excess loose skin or separated abdominal muscles often present after pregnancy. But this can also be caused by aging and genetics. This loose skin covers up the underlying muscles, so even if you have a strong core, no one will be able to tell.

A tummy tuck directly addresses these issues:

Loose skin
Excess pockets of stubborn fat
Weak or separated abdominal muscles
The best tummy tuck candidates are in good overall health and have realistic expectations. If you would like to see how your results may look, view our tummy tuck before and after photos.

Your Tummy Tuck Consultation
Prior to your tummy-tuck procedure, you will meet with board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jason Ulm to discuss the procedure. Dr. Ulm will ask you about your reasons for wanting a tummy tuck and will help you understand the results that are possible through surgery. He will also check your overall health to make sure you are fit for the procedure.
What to Expect
During your tummy-tuck procedure, an incision will be made just slightly above where the hair grows in the p***c area. A second incision will be made around the belly button and the excess skin and fat are removed.

Next, Dr. Ulm will focus on tightening and aligning the abdominal muscles. He will use internal sutures to rejoin and strengthen the sagging muscles, creating a slimmer figure with a tighter core. Once this is complete, the remaining skin will be tightened in order to give the abdomen a smooth and toned appearance. The incisions will be sutured closed. Sometimes additional definition of the sides are achieved with liposuction.

Once the incisions have been dressed, the healing and recovery process can begin. You will need to take at least two weeks off of work in order to give yourself time to heal. Most patients will feel normal after around four weeks but will need to wait a minimum of six weeks before they can completely resume all activities.

Tummy Tuck Cost
The price of abdominoplasty surgery is influenced by factors like the time it takes to perform the procedure, the techniques employed, and the amount of tissue removed. To help with tummy tuck cost, financing is available through Prosper Healthcare Lending.
