Neck lift surgery improves the appearance of sagging neck skin, excess fat, and muscle bands. Several treatment options exist, from minimally invasive procedures to complete surgical neck lift, based on each patient’s needs. A neck lift is a surgical procedure that restores a more youthful neck appearance through several possible techniques. The traditional neck lift addresses three main concerns:
Excess or sagging neck skin
Weakened or separated neck muscles (platysma) Poor definition of the neck and jawline
The procedure typically involves tightening the neck muscles (platysmaplasty) and removing excess skin to create a smoother, more defined neck contour. The specific surgical approach is customized based on your anatomy and aesthetic goals. While some patients may benefit from less invasive options, a surgical neck lift provides the strongest improvement for moderate to severe neck aging.
Younger patients with good skin quality might need only liposuction or threads, while more significant aging may require surgical neck lift.
Yes, neck lift is often done with face lift, but it can also be done alone.
Yes, neck treatments can improve double chin through fat removal and skin tightening.
Minimally invasive treatments leave tiny scars. Surgical neck lift scars are hidden behind ears and under chin.
