Reasons to Opt for a Neck Lift Surgery

Heather Arranie January 27, 2023 3 min read

A neck lift surgery is a cosmetic procedure used to improve the appearance of the neck and jawline. The procedure typically involves removing excess skin and fat and tightening the neck’s underlying muscles to create a more youthful and defined appearance. Recovery time can vary depending on the extent of the Scarsdale neck lift surgery, but it typically takes around two weeks to heal fully.

A neck lift surgery is typically recommended for people with excess skin, fat, and muscle laxity in the neck area that causes a “turkey wattle” or “double chin” appearance. The surgery is also often recommended for people who have lost a significant amount of weight and have sagging skin in the neck area.

The surgeon will examine your neck and evaluate your overall health and medical history to determine if you are a good candidate for the surgery. They will also discuss any potential risks and complications with you.

Reasons to get a Neck Lift Surgery

Reduces Excess Skin

The procedure typically involves incisions along the hairline and under the chin, allowing the surgeon to remove excess skin and tighten the underlying muscles. This can create a more defined jawline and a smoother, more youthful appearance in the neck area.

The amount of skin that can be removed will depend on the individual case and the surgeon’s discretion. Remember that neck lift surgery can be combined with other procedures, such as facelift, liposuction, or fat transfer, to achieve the desired results.

Reduce the Appearance of Wrinkles

A neck lift surgery can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles in the neck area to some extent. The procedure involves tightening the underlying muscles in the neck, which can create a smoother appearance. Additionally, by removing excess skin, the surgery can help to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines in the neck area.

However, take note that neck lift surgery mainly focuses on the skin, fat, and muscle laxity in the neck area and not on reducing wrinkles or fine lines specifically.

If wrinkles and fine lines are your main concern, a different procedure, such as a facelift, laser resurfacing, or injectable wrinkle fillers, may be more appropriate.

Long-lasting Results

A neck lift surgery can provide long-lasting results. Still, the longevity of the results will depend on a variety of factors, such as the individual’s skin type, age, and lifestyle habits. In general, a neck lift surgery’s effects can last several years. Still, the skin will continue to age, and gravity, sun damage, and weight fluctuations can cause the neck to lose some of its youthful definition over time.

After a neck lift surgery, it is imperative to follow your surgeon’s instructions for proper care and recovery. This will help to ensure the best possible outcome and minimize any complications.

Some general aftercare instructions for a neck lift surgery include:

  • Keeping your head elevated for the first few days to reduce swelling
  • Wearing a compression garment or bandage around your neck to minimize swelling and support the newly tightened muscles
  • Avoiding strenuous activity and exercise for at least two weeks
  • Avoiding any actions that could raise your blood pressure, such as bending over or lifting heavy objects
  • Preventing exposure to sun, smoke, and wind
  • Taking pain medication as prescribed by your surgeon

You should consult with Robert M. Schwarcz, MD, to discuss whether a neck lift surgery is right for you.
