What is a Neck Lift?

The neck lift, or lower rhytidectomy, is a surgical method focused on rejuvenating the neck area. The technique involves removing excess skin and fat and tightening the underlying muscles. This surgery targets aging issues like sagging skin, muscle banding, and fat deposits, producing a more refined and youthful neck and jawline.

The Benefits of a Neck Lift

A neck lift offers numerous advantages that can significantly enhance your appearance and self-confidence. Addressing the visible aging signs in the neck area delivers a smoother, tighter, and more youthful look with long-lasting results. The benefits of our neck lift procedure include the following:

  • Improved neck contour and definition
  • Reduced appearance of jowls and sagging skin
  • Enhanced jawline definition
  • Elimination of excess fat and skin

How a Neck Lift Can Revitalize Your Look

The technique involves making small incisions behind the ears and sometimes under the chin. Next, excess fat is removed or redistributed, and the underlying muscles are tightened. Excess skin is trimmed away, and then the remaining skin is re-draped for a smoother, more youthful appearance.

A neck lift targets several concerns, including the following:

  • Sagging skin in the neck area
  • Muscle banding in the neck, often called "turkey neck"
  • Excess fat deposits under the chin
  • Jowls or loss of jawline definition

The Neck Lift Procedure Details

The neck lift procedure at Caniglia Facial Plastic Surgery begins with a comprehensive consultation to design the process according to your specific needs and desired outcomes. The following steps are typical of what to expect during the procedure:

  1. Preparation: Anesthesia is administered for comfort during the procedure.
  2. Incisions: Small incisions are made behind the ears and possibly under the chin.
  3. Fat Removal/Redistribution: Excess fat is removed or redistributed for a more defined contour.
  4. Muscle Tightening: The underlying neck muscles are tightened to enhance support and firmness.
  5. Skin Redraping: Excess skin is trimmed away, and the remaining skin is re-draped smoothly.
  6. Closure: Incisions are carefully closed to minimize visible scarring.

After the Surgery

Recovery from a neck lift involves some downtime, but it is generally manageable and rewarding. Initially, expect some swelling and bruising for the first few days to weeks. A soft bandage or compression garment will support the neck and reduce swelling. Most patients can return to normal activities within two weeks, though strenuous activities should be avoided for about a month. Final results typically become apparent within a few months as swelling subsides. Our team will provide detailed post-operative care instructions and schedule regular follow-up appointments to ensure your healing process is going well and to address any concerns.
