Lower Rhytidectomy Dallas, TX | Dr Evan W Beale

What is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift, or lower rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat around the neck and jawline. The goal is to create a smoother, more defined, and youthful neck profile. Often performed in conjunction with a facelift, a neck lift offers dramatic results for individuals seeking to reduce visible signs of aging.

Ideal Candidates for Neck Lift Surgery

Neck lift candidates typically include individuals experiencing:

• Jowls or sagging skin along the jawline
• Double chin or "turkey neck" appearance
• Genetic fat deposits
• Significant weight loss resulting in loose neck skin

Patients should be non-smokers or willing to quit smoking before and after the procedure to ensure optimal healing.

Neck Lift Surgical Technique

Dr. Beale offers personalized neck lift techniques tailored to individual patient needs. The typical procedure involves:

• Creating a discreet incision beneath the chin
• Removing underlying fatty tissue
• Potential liposuction to define jawline and neck
• Carefully excising and tightening skin
• Strategic suturing for rapid healing

Deep Plane Neck Lift Option

For more comprehensive results, Dr. Beale offers a deep plane neck lift technique. This advanced procedure involves releasing the platysma muscle and addressing fat deposits deep within the neck, providing more natural-looking rejuvenation.

Benefits of a Neck Lift Procedure

• Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
• Minimizes visible surgical scars
• Removes excess neck skin
• Tightens underlying neck muscles
• Recontours chin and jawline
• Eliminates platysmal muscle banding

Recovery and Expectations

Neck lift recovery typically involves 2-3 weeks of healing. Patients can expect mild to moderate discomfort, managed with prescribed medication. Most individuals return to normal activities within three weeks, following Dr. Beale's post-operative guidelines.
