About Neck Lift

A neck lift is a commonly administered cosmetic treatment in the United States. Also called a lower rhytidectomy, this procedure can address multiple signs of aging in the neck and jawline. For people with jowl lines, a double chin, or a “turkey wattle,” a neck lift can be a long-lasting cosmetic solution.

What Are The Benefits Of A Neck Lift?

A neck lift offers a number of benefits for patients looking to restore a more youthful and refined contour to the neck and jawline. These include:

  • Eliminating loose, sagging skin: The procedure removes excess skin that can accumulate due to aging, gravity, or weight loss.
  • Reducing wrinkles and neck bands: A neck lift can significantly smooth out horizontal neck wrinkles and vertical platysmal bands, which often become more prominent with age.
  • Defining the jawline: The procedure helps to sculpt and redefine the jawline, creating a clearer separation between the face and neck, and reducing the appearance of jowls.
  • Minimizing a double chin: Fat removal and redistribution can reduce submental fullness, commonly known as a double chin, leading to a more streamlined profile.
  • Long-lasting results: While individual results vary, the effects of a neck lift are typically long-lasting, providing years of aesthetic improvement.

Patients contemplating neck lift surgery tend to deal with visibly loose, hanging skin in the neck region. This loose skin deformity is generally caused by ranging factors including gravity, weight fluctuations, and aging. Whatever the reason may be, sagging neck skin causes an older, unbecoming look, which in most cases can only be corrected with skin removal and tightening. If your weight is stable but you feel embarrassed by lines, wrinkles, and hanging skin along the neck, a neck lift surgery may be a suitable option.

If I could choose more than 5 stars I would! I had a lift done with an implant and c section scar revision back in May and from consultation to surgery to post op appointments I have felt so supportive and comfortable. I was never really sure about what I wanted but knew I wanted my breasts fixed after breastfeeding for four years. Dr. Watt was so kind and knowledgeable and helped guide me through the entire process. I fully trusted his expertise to give me the results that I was looking for and he did exactly that. I had some inspiration photos and at my 3 month post op I look exactly how I envisioned. Everything is perfect. The nurses are so communicative and helpful with pre and post surgery questions and never made me feel like a burden when I asked. Everyone is just incredibly nice there. In a place where you’re pretty vulnerable, I never once felt uncomfortable and didn’t feel like I was just another patient. Dr. Watt took his time with me figuring out what I wanted my end results to be and never felt pressured.Worth the money spent, worth the time waiting to get in 1000% I cannot recommend enough!

I had been considering a breast lift and augmentation for years, but it's a big decision and I never felt quite ready. After my consultation with Dr. Watt, I immediately felt comfortable, supported, and completely confident in moving forward. I scheduled my surgery shortly afterward, and it was one of the best decisions I've made.I am absolutely thrilled with how everything turned out. The surgery, the recovery, and the final outcome couldn't have gone better. Everything was seamless from start to finish. After years of not feeling completely happy with my breasts, I finally feel confident and love the way they look.I'm also incredibly impressed with the entire Watt team and the environment they've created. Everyone is professional, kind, welcoming, and genuinely invested in making patients feel comfortable. There's a reason I'm in the office so often!I can't recommend Dr. Watt and his team highly enough.

Such an amazing staff. I split my lip and Watt managed to fit me into their busy schedule the same day. The facility is so clean and beautiful. Everyone was so nice and caring. Would definitely go back.

I couldn’t be happier with my experience with Dr. G! She performed my breast augmentation with a lift, and I absolutely love my results. She’s incredibly personable, took the time to understand exactly what I wanted, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process.I especially appreciated her personal pre-op and post-op follow-up calls—they made me feel genuinely cared for and supported. Her entire team was kind, professional, and wonderful to work with. I highly recommend Dr. G!

What does a Neck Lift involve?

Neck lifts start with an incision at the hairline (sideburn position), and continue around the ear to the back of the head below the hairline. We lift the tissue below the neck skin and tighten some neck muscles. The fat in this area will also be sculpted or redistributed.

Once the tissue at the neck and jawline are lifted and sculpted, we place the skin back over the treatment area. Our plastic surgeons will remove any excess skin, and the incision will be closed with sutures.

What are the results of a Neck Lift?

An individual may opt for a neck lift because, while their face is still lifted and smooth, the skin on their neck appears wrinkled or loose. In this scenario, a neck lift will give the patient a rejuvenated appearance without needing a full facelift. This can also be performed with a facelift if signs of aging appear on the face and the neck.

A neck lift will result in:

  • Reduced wrinkles and folds
  • Less excess skin in the neck
  • Tightened neck muscles
  • A more defined chin and jawline

The results are long-lasting. As bruising and swelling from the procedure fade, you’ll see remarkable improvements to the appearance of the neck. Just be sure to protect your neck from the sun as the treatment area heals, and avoid putting pressure on the sutures. Contact us today at Watt Plastic Surgery & Med Spa to learn more and how it could benefit you.

How much does a neck lift cost?

The cost of your neck surgery can be reviewed in your consultation. We can estimate prices for the facility, anesthesia, and miscellaneous fees as soon as we have developed your surgical plan. To help make your neck surgery easy to afford, Watt Plastic Surgery & Med Spa takes many payment methods, and we can give you information on low-interest financing.

What about nonsurgical options?

Surgery is the only way to eliminate excess skin, particularly if it droops or hangs. However, several nonsurgical skin tightening treatments may produce mild improvements. Neck lift surgery offers the most significant enhancements to smooth and redefine your neckline. A new and popular treatment called KYBELLA reduces fat in the upper neck, which gives the appearance of a double chin; however, it does not correct loose skin.

Will I have visible scars?

A neck lift does include one incision below the chin and two more near the ears. These are made so they are very difficult for others to see. Our surgeons try very hard during your surgery to limit visible scarring. A team member will explain scar care instructions that encourage your incisions to heal properly so they are thin and flat.
