What to Know About Neck Lift Surgery

Youthful face of a beautiful woman after facial and dermal filler treatments.

As you age, one of the first areas you may notice changing is the area around your neck. You may notice sagging skin and excess fat around the chin. Surgery can help eliminate these issues and restore a more youthful appearance. This can help you boost your self-confidence and feel more attractive. Here’s everything you need to know about neck lift surgery.

What is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift is a surgical procedure that smooths and defines the jawline. It also trims excess skin around the neck and eliminates fat from the chin. Surgery typically lasts around two hours and the recovery period lasts a few days. The surgeon may make incisions underneath the chin and the back of the ears to remove fatty deposits and sculpt the jaw and neck. You will need to wear a compression bandage for at least 24 hours, and some swelling and bruising is to be expected.

Ideal Neck Lift Candidates

The ideal candidate for a neck lift surgery is a person who is in good health. If you have neck folds or loose skin, you may strongly want to consider having this surgery. Individuals who are interested in this procedure should schedule a consultation. You can meet with the surgeon to have any questions answered. The surgeon will review your medical history and help you determine if surgery is right for you.

  • Dr. Morgan Rabach and her staff provide top tier care and excellent service. Dr. Rabach is well-versed in the latest research. She made lots of time to discuss my dermatological history (what’s worked, what hasn’t worked, what hasn’t been tried) and all the available treatments to find the best path forward. She didn’t settle - pushing to make sure I got the best results possible. Would recommend without any reservations!

  • The staff are incredibly friendly and so helpful. The wait times are very short, the space is clean and modern, and they're very quick to respond to questions over the phone or email.
