What Is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift is a surgical procedure that addresses changes affecting the neck and area beneath the chin. Depending on the concerns present, surgery may involve the skin, underlying muscles and localised fat to improve neck and jawline definition.

What Can a Neck Lift Address?

A neck lift may be used to address:

  • Loose or sagging skin around the neck
  • Visible neck bands
  • Reduced definition between the jawline and neck
  • Localised fat beneath the chin, where appropriate

How Does a Neck Lift Work?

During a neck lift, underlying tissues such as the platysma muscle may be repositioned or tightened, while excess skin is adjusted to follow the new contours. Localised fat may also be removed where appropriate.

Incisions are typically placed around the ears and may also be made beneath the chin, depending on the areas being treated and the surgical approach used.

Understanding Your Neck Lift Options

Different surgical approaches may be used depending on whether the main concern involves the underlying neck muscles, localised fat or both.

  • Platysmaplasty: Tightens and repositions the platysma muscle to address visible neck bands and improve the contour of the neck.
  • Neck liposuction: Removes localised fat beneath the chin and around the neck to improve definition between the jawline and neck.

Who Is Suitable for a Neck Lift?

A neck lift may be suitable if you have:

  • Loose or sagging skin around the neck
  • Visible neck bands caused by changes in the underlying muscles
  • Reduced definition along the neck and jawline
  • Realistic expectations about the changes that neck lift surgery can achieve

FAQs About Neck Lifts

Where are neck lift scars located?

Neck lift incisions are typically placed around the ears and may also be made beneath the chin, depending on the surgical approach. Incision placement varies according to the areas being treated.

How long do neck lift results last?

Neck lift results are long-lasting, although the procedure does not stop the natural ageing process. The skin and underlying tissues will continue to change over time.

Will a neck lift improve my jawline?

A neck lift may improve jawline definition when loose skin or underlying neck tissues contribute to a less defined transition between the face and neck.

Can a neck lift remove fat under the chin?

Yes. Neck liposuction may be used to remove localised fat beneath the chin and improve neck and jawline definition. Where concerns also involve loose skin or visible neck bands, it may form part of a broader neck lift procedure.
