A neck lift, also known as a lower rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate and tighten the skin of the neck and jawline. This procedure is often sought by individuals experiencing sagging skin, excess fat, or muscle laxity in the neck area, which can result from aging, genetics, or significant weight loss. During a neck lift, a surgeon removes excess skin and fat, tightens the underlying muscles, and repositions the skin to create a smoother, more youthful contour. The procedure may involve making incisions behind the ears and under the chin to access and address the targeted areas. Recovery typically involves swelling, bruising, and some discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed pain medication and compression garments. Most patients return to normal activities within a few weeks, with full results becoming evident after several months. A neck lift can significantly improve the appearance of the neck and jawline, providing a more defined and youthful look.
