Neck Lift

Neck Lift: Achieve a Youthful and Defined Neck

Overview

A neck lift, also known as lower rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the neck by removing excess skin and fat, tightening underlying muscles, and improving overall contour. This surgery can address sagging skin, muscle banding, and double chins, resulting in a more youthful and defined neck. Our expert surgeons in Turkey utilize the latest techniques to ensure natural-looking results and a high level of patient satisfaction.

Procedure Options

1. Traditional Neck Lift: Involves making incisions behind the ears and under the chin to remove excess skin and fat, tighten the neck muscles, and improve neck contour. This technique is ideal for significant sagging and aging concerns.
2. Mini Neck Lift: A less invasive option with smaller incisions, focusing on the lower face and neck. This procedure is suitable for patients with mild to moderate sagging.
3. Neck Liposuction: Removes excess fat from the neck and under the chin through small incisions. This option is ideal for patients with good skin elasticity and localized fat deposits.
4. Platysmaplasty: Specifically targets the platysma muscles in the neck to address vertical banding and create a smoother appearance.

Benefits:

• Eliminates sagging skin and muscle banding in the neck
• Reduces the appearance of a double chin
• Enhances jawline and neck contour
• Creates a more youthful and defined appearance
• Long-lasting results with proper care

Risks:

• Infection or bleeding

• Asymmetry or need for revision surgery

Our expert surgeons in Turkey use advanced techniques to minimize risks and ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients.

Recovery and Aftercare

• Initial Recovery: Most patients can return to normal activities within two weeks, although complete healing may take several months.
