How Can I Expect My Necklift to Look Over Time?

Blog: How Can I Expect My Necklift to Look Over Time?

Do selfies reveal sagging neck skin? Do Zoom calls have you combing your closet for a turtleneck or scarf?

Now that those wrinkles, lines, and sagging skin are out in the open, what can you do to achieve a sleeker neckline? At Connecticut Facial Plastic Surgery, we pride ourselves in aesthetically improving our patients’ appearance from the scalp to the neck. One of our most popular procedures for women and men is a necklift.

What Can a Necklift Do?

A necklift treats aging skin on the lower face and the neck. It resolves sagging skin under the chin, loose platysma bands, and stubborn submental fat below the jawline (double chin). You may choose to pair it with other facial enhancements like a facelift, browlift, eyelid surgery, and rhinoplasty.

Positive changes to your appearance will boost self-confidence to improve your lifestyle. Your neck will highlight your beauty, you will look better, and your self-esteem will noticeably rise.

When performing a necklift, your board-certified surgeon will use their talent and skill to resolve multiple concerns, like:

  • Skin laxity that creates a turkey wattle and jowls
  • A double chin
  • Neck banding
  • Marionette lines at the corners of the mouth
  • Lack of definition between the neck and jawline

Long-Lasting Results

Many patients ask us to recommend exercises or dietary changes to eliminate unwanted fat and tighten loose skin on the neck. However, once premature aging sets in and gravity pulls loose skin down, only surgical intervention will fully address weakened muscles and lax neck skin.

If you are in overall good health, are a non-smoker, and your neck is a cosmetic concern, you may be a candidate for a necklift.

Our patients enjoy dramatic, natural-looking, and long-lasting outcomes after their necklift surgery, especially if moisturizer, sunscreen, and other healthy lifestyle habits are part of their post-surgery routine.
