A neck lift or surgical neck tightening is a cosmetic surgical procedure performed to tighten your neck, reduce sagging muscles and remove excess fat hiding your jawline.
A neck lift surgery may be performed alone or in combination with a facelift for more effective anti-ageing results.
There are different neck lift procedures used by surgeons, depending on many factors. The most commonly used techniques include:
In this technique, incisions are made around the ears to ensure minimal scarring. The platysma muscle that runs vertically along the front of the neck is tightened, excess skin is removed, and the sutures are hidden in the hairline or the neck fold.
The platysma muscle, which becomes loose with age and sags, is tightened and lifted. If there is excessive sagging, a second incision is made to correct the neck muscles and give you a more youthful appearance.
This procedure may be performed in people with excessive fat tissue in the neck region, giving them a double chin.
A neck lift procedure is recommended for healthy men and women who have the following features in their neck and chin region:
This cosmetic procedure can also correct deep creases or lines between your mouth and chin (called the marionette lines), jowls, loss of jawline and neck contour.
