Neck Lift
Overview
Roll back the clock on aging with a transformative neck lift procedure to match the youthfulness of the rest of the face.
Sometimes your neck will exhibit signs of aging before your face. Or, on occasions, dramatic weight loss can cause the droopy look of excess skin in that area.
If you are looking to enhance your neck contour, a neck lift will help regain a more uniform natural look. This procedure tackles the sensation of a fleshy neck, jowls, or the common “turkey waddle” appearance. It tightens the tissue and muscles of the neck while at the same time removes extra skin and fat.
Are You a Candidate for a neck lift?
Candidates for a neck lift will have advanced aging symptoms that will not respond to non-surgical treatment, or want a long-lasting treatment for moderate aging signs. Concerns addressed by a surgical neck lift might include:
- Excess fat under the jawline that gives the appearance of a double chin
- The formation of a “turkey wattle” on the front of the neck under the chin
- Horizontal banding around the neck
- Isolated areas of fat deposits interfering with your neck contour
- Sagging skin creating jowls along your jawline

The Recovery Process
As with any surgical intervention some bruising and swelling are to be expected after surgery. A bandage will be placed over the face and neck to reduce these effect and you will be prescribed pain medication to secure your postoperative comfort and relaxation.
You will likely return to your normal routine within 2 weeks of the surgery when signs of the procedure will be practically invisible.
