Neck lift surgery
What is a neck lift?
Neck is one of the few body areas that start to change due to aging. A “turkey wattle”, fatty jowls, vertical banding, horizontal creases and a double chin can all make us look older than we feel. A neck lift, also known as platysmaplasty, is a rejuvenation surgery that enhances the appearance of the neck and improves the contour of the jawline.
Although there are different facelift techniques, they all have several features in common. Neck lift is performed while the patient is under general anaesthesia. It works by tightening the underlying muscles and removing saggy skin as well as excess fat. Incisions may be hidden in the hairline or under the chin.
If you are looking to get rid of a double chin and tighten the skin in the front of the neck, then you may opt for a chin tuck surgery, which compared to a full neck and lower face lift is a less extensive procedure.
Who is eligible for a neck lift surgery and what surgeries can it be combined with?
Neck lift can give you a more youthful profile and frame the rest of the face. Neck anatomy differs with each patient, and thus, not everyone is an eligible candidate for a neck lift.
- Ideal candidates should wish to get rid of the saggy skin, folds, wrinkles and excess fat located in the neck area. Bear in mind that a neck lift cannot fully change the appearance of one’s neck and will not stop the aging process.
- Ideal candidates are generally considered healthy individuals who wish to correct certain undesired traits of their neck.
- Most patients are in their 40s to 60s, however, it is rather a tendency and not a rule or recommendation.
- People who present with such illnesses as diabetes, heart and blood clotting disorders can also undergo neck lift procedure, however, it might be challenging to undergo anaesthesia and recover successfully. It is important to discuss each particular case with a surgeon in order to prevent any complications and achieve the desired look.
Although a neck lift can be done as a stand-alone surgery, there is a possibility to perform it along with other rejuvenation procedures, like a chin liposuction, a facelift, or a fat transfer.
Preparing for a neck lift
In order to select the most suitable surgical method a thorough discussion with a surgeon is necessary. During a consultation a patient will be able to discuss any specific expectations for the outcome of the surgery and a surgeon will explain in detail the surgery and recovery plans.
Also, the patients must stop taking blood-thinning substances, such as aspirin, certain herbs, teas, and anti-inflammatory drugs.
Smoking and alcohol consumption must be avoided at least one month before and after the surgery so that it does not restrict blood circulation and the healing process.
Medical examination and review of medical history are essential steps before surgery. To determine the best approach of a neck lift a surgeon will examine the patient and discuss available strategies. The patients will have to undergo any necessary lab tests, such as blood work, a urine test, and others.
You should take care of items that will come in handy after your surgery is done. It includes ice packs, gauze and towels, loose clothing (preferably buttoned-down tops that do not have to be pulled over the head).
An empty stomach is required for anyone undergoing general anaesthesia. In order to prevent regurgitation during the surgery the patients should not eat or drink 6 hours before the surgery.
The difference between chin liposuction, neck z-plasty and neck lift
A lax platysma muscle, excess fat and the presence of a large fold of excess skin can make the neck appear unaesthetic and result in such features as a “chubby” neck, “double chin” or “turkey gobblers”. Z-plasty would benefit those patients who are specifically unhappy with the look of their neck only. During a z-plasty the incision will be made under the chin and hidden in the neck creases. Z-plasty would be more suitable for men since the scars can be hidden under a beard or under the shirt collar. Although this procedure does leave a Z-shaped scar line along the neck it usually heals well. Taking everything into consideration, a z-plasty is suitable for those who wish to get rid of a large amount of saggy skin and do not mind having a longer scar under their neck.
A neck lift, on the other hand, requires a more difficult surgical technique. Neck lift is usually a part of a classical face lift, but it can also be performed individually. A few incisions are made behind the ears along the hairline, a small incision in the neck might be needed as well. Neck lift procedure is the best option for patients who wish not only to remove the hanging skin and wrinkles, but also to improve the appearance of the whole neck and lower face area.
Chin liposuction can address such aesthetical issues as double chin, fat pockets, or jowls. Liposuction will remove fat depositions from the chin and the neck to sculpt a more defined jawline. It is overall a technically simple procedure with just a few 3mm incisions made under the chin and behind each ear lobe, but the excess skin is not removed during this procedure.

Recovery after neck lift surgery
After the surgery is performed you will wake up from anaesthesia in a recovery room. You may find a drain tube inserted under the bandages to help drain any excess fluids. The incision sites will be covered with bandages which will need to be changed according to your doctor’s request. You might have to wear a special chin slack which will ensure equal distribution of pressure. Remember to rest and take time for yourself, have someone assisting you, get plenty of water and nutritious foods, avoid stress. Most importantly, avoid alcohol, nicotine and drugs.
If drainage tubes were used they will be removed after a few days. Stitches will be removed in 7 days unless dissolvable stitches were used. Do not apply ice on the wound site as cooling down the area might result in restricted blood flow, and thus, disturbed wound recovery unless advised otherwise by your surgeon. Bruising should fade away in a couple of weeks. It is highly recommended to avoid driving after the surgery at least until bruising is relieved. To be able to appreciate the final results of the procedure a patient might need to wait for few months until the swelling and bruising have fully gone down.
A doctor will inform you about any specific pain-relieving medications you have to take. The recovery can take up to four weeks. A patient should be prepared to take time off work for at least 2 to 4 weeks when recovering.
Sun should be avoided for several weeks as it can interfere with the healing of the scars and damage the surrounding vulnerable skin. Heavy physical activities should be ceased for at least four weeks. You can resume once your doctor allows you to do so.
Quality skin care will prevent aging and inevitably add to the effect of a neck lift. Weight fluctuation tends to stretch the skin, hence, a healthy diet and a stable weight will likely prolong the results. Nutrition highly influences the skin condition as well. A patient should consume enough proteins which are essential for wound healing. Zinc, vitamins A and C should all be consumed properly since they are important for the synthesis of collagen and skin maintenance. Note that malnutrition impairs all stages of immune response, wound healing and tissue production.
