A neck lift is a surgical procedure aimed at reducing excess skin and fat around the jawline, creating a smoother, more defined neck and chin profile. This procedure can greatly improve the appearance of jowls and a “turkey neck,” offering a refreshed and youthful appearance. 

Procedure Details: A neck lift involves incisions behind the ears and sometimes under the chin. The underlying muscles are tightened, and excess skin and fat are removed to create a smoother and more defined neck and jawline. This procedure is often performed alongside a facelift for a comprehensive rejuvenation. 

Post-Operative Care: You’ll need to wear a supportive garment around your neck, keep your head elevated, and avoid twisting or turning your neck for several weeks to ensure proper healing. 

Special Recommendations: Avoid sun exposure and follow your surgeon’s post-operative instructions to reduce the risk of scarring and to achieve the best possible outcome.
