neck lift
A neck lift is a surgical procedure that removes the excess skin and fat that hangs under the chin in the neck area. It creates a more defined and vibrant look. Various factors can make one’s neck look older, including smoking, stress, genetics, and natural aging. Aging causes the muscles to weaken and skin to lose its elasticity. Because of this, the skin is unable to stay tight, firm, and wrinkle-free. A neck lift can help you look more youthful as it creates a more defined jawline free from sagging skin.
Natural aging is inevitable, but it doesn’t mean you have to let it show. A lift is a great option for patients who want to freshen up their look. For those who experience any of the following, you may be the right candidate for surgery.
A neck lift procedure can target several aesthetic and functional concerns, including
Loose or excess skin in the neck area
Saggy, loose skin often referred to as “turkey neck”
Excess laxity in the platysma band neck muscles
The neck area can sometimes show aging at a faster rate than the face. When the neck area has more sagging than the face a neck lift alone may be the best option. However, it can also be combined with other procedures such as a facelift, which helps address skin laxity and volume concerns in both the neck and jowl areas.
