Neck Lift Surgery

Neck Lift Surgery

Neck lift surgery, or lower rhytidectomy, is a procedure that can address issues such as excess skin, fatty deposits, and saggy skin on the neck. This type of surgery is often performed in conjunction with a facelift or eyelid surgery. The recovery time is longer, and you must wear a special supportive garment around your neck. You should also expect some bruising and swelling after the surgery, but this will eventually subside.

Anyone unhappy with their neck’s appearance may be a candidate for a neck lift. The best candidates are those who have good skin elasticity and bone structure. Patients should also have realistic expectations for the results of surgery.

A neck lift can improve the appearance of a “turkey wattle,” jowls, and loose skin on the neck. It can also help to redefine the jawline. The procedure is often combined with liposuction to remove excess fat from the neck and chin area. In some cases, a neck lift may also be combined with a facelift.

Types of Neck Lift Procedures

There are two primary types of neck lifts: cervicoplasty and platsmaplasty. Both procedures can be performed alone or in combination with other cosmetic procedures, such as a facelift.
