Understanding the Procedure

What Is
Neck Lift?

A neck lift is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to improve visible signs of aging in the neck and jawline area. The procedure tightens loose skin, removes excess fat, and improves muscle definition to create a smoother, firmer, and more youthful neckline.

A neck lift is often combined with other facial rejuvenation procedures, such as a facelift or chin augmentation, for more comprehensive results.

This procedure primarily addresses:

  • Loose or sagging neck skin
  • Excess fat beneath the chin (“double chin”)
  • Muscle banding in the neck
  • Loss of jawline definition
  • Signs of aging in the lower face and neck

Modern neck lift techniques focus on natural-looking rejuvenation while preserving facial harmony and balanced contours.

Who Is This Procedure For?
A neck lift is ideal for adults in good health who want to improve neck contour and jawline definition. Candidates should have realistic expectations, stable weight, and be non-smokers or willing to stop before surgery.
