Neck Lift in Cottonwood Heights, UT | 22 Plastic Surgery

Understanding Neck Aging and Transformation

The neck is uniquely vulnerable to aging due to its lack of underlying bone support. Unlike other body areas, neck skin demonstrates remarkable laxity, making it one of the first regions to reveal signs of advancing years. A neck lift specifically targets these age-related changes, providing comprehensive rejuvenation.

What is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift, clinically known as a lower rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to address the transformative effects of aging on neck skin and muscles. Unlike non-surgical interventions, a neck lift provides definitive correction of structural changes.

Ideal Candidates for Neck Lift Surgery

Potential neck lift candidates typically experience:

• Loose, sagging neck skin
• Visible muscle banding
• Excess fat under the chin

• Significant skin laxity

Recovery and Expectations

Neck lift recovery requires patience and careful management. Patients can typically return to work within 10-14 days, with full results developing over six months. Minimal pain and strategic post-operative care ensure optimal healing.

Scarring Considerations

Incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring, typically around earlobes and under the chin. With professional technique, scars become virtually undetectable within months.
