What is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift is an advanced surgical procedure designed to address visible signs of aging in the neck and jawline region. As individuals age, factors like gravity, sun exposure, and daily stress contribute to skin laxity, fat deposits, and muscle loosening around the neck area.

Key Benefits of Neck Lift Surgery

Removes excess fat deposits
Tightens underlying neck muscles
Redrapes and smooths neck skin
Enhances overall facial profile

Ideal Candidates for Neck Lift in Houston

The optimal neck lift candidate typically includes men and women experiencing neck sagging with reasonably elastic skin and well-defined bone structure. While most patients range between 40-60 years old, successful procedures have been performed on patients in their seventies and eighties.

Neck Lift Procedure Details

Peterson Plastic Surgery performs neck lifts using precise surgical techniques. Incisions are strategically placed near earlobes, extending behind the ear and toward the hairline. A small additional incision might be made under the chin to optimize contouring.

Neck Lift Surgical Process

During the procedure, surgeons carefully separate skin from underlying muscle and fat. Excess fat may be trimmed or strategically removed to improve neck contours. Underlying muscles are tightened, skin is repositioned, and excess tissue is removed to create a more youthful appearance.

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect initial swelling and bruising, which typically subsides within several weeks. Most individuals return to normal activities within 10-14 days. While the procedure cannot stop aging, it provides long-lasting improvements to neck aesthetics.
