A neck lift is a cosmetic surgery procedure that can improve the looking of your neck, chin and jaw line. An elegant neck contour is not only associated with a youthful appearance, but also with health and vitality.
A neck lift is performed under general anesthesia. The surgeon will make a small incision behind each ear. Depending on your needs and the amount of excess skin you have, your surgeon may also make a small third incision under the chin. Through these incisions, your surgeon will tighten the neck muscles and underlying tissue by removing excess sagging skin. The result is a smoother, firmer and more youthful neck.
Recovering from a neck lift takes time, and it is important that you be patient with the process. Most people can return to work in seven to 14 days. If you participate in sports or are physically active, you will have to wait at least three weeks to resume those activities.
It is also recommended wearing a medical compression bandage to help reduce postoperative swelling. This is usually worn at night and day for at least five to seven days and then only at night for a longer period of time. It is important to follow the instructions to ensure a proper recovery.
WHAT ARE THE RISKS OF A NECK LIFT?
Although a neck lift is generally very safe, there are always risks for surgery.
Some potential risks may include:
CAN THE SKIN AROUND THE NECK SAG AGAIN AFTER SURGERY?
Unfortunately yes. Although a neck lift can give you a rejuvenated appearance, it cannot stop the skin's aging process. However, aging around the neck after a neck lift will likely be more subtle than it would be without the procedure.
WILL A NECK LIFT LEAVE SCARS?
The incisions made during a neck lift tend to leave some scars, even if they are small incisions. However, the location of the scar and who performs the procedure can be very helpful in minimizing them. Your plastic surgeon will do everything possible to be discreet about the placement of incisions to reduce visible scars.
AM I A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR A NECK LIFT?
If you want a slim neck that defines the jawline, has excess skin and fat in the neck, causing the development of folds and lines, and is in good general health, you are a good candidate for a neck lift. Patients should also have a positive attitude and realistic expectations for the procedure.

A full facelift is usually one solution to rejuvenate your youthful look. However, there are cases whereby a patient’s upper facial area still displays a youthful look but excess wrinkling on the neck’s skin and a double chin are apparent. If your neck area doesn’t align with your upper facial appearance, then undergoing a neck lift might be a solution for you.
