Neck Lift in Las Vegas, NV | Terrence Higgins, MD FACS

What Is Neck Lift Surgery?

Neck lift surgery is a specialized facial procedure designed to reshape and tighten the area underneath the chin and along the neck. This surgical technique removes excess skin and fat, effectively eliminating the appearance of a "double chin" or "turkey neck". By addressing loose skin and introducing strategic tightening techniques, patients can achieve a smoother, more defined neckline and profile.

Benefits of Neck Lift Surgery

• Reducing visible lines and wrinkles
• Tightening loose, sagging skin
• Minimizing double chin appearance
• Defining jawline contours
• Achieving a more youthful neck appearance
• Boosting personal confidence

Am I a Candidate for Neck Lift Surgery?

Ideal neck lift candidates typically experience visibly sagging skin along the neckline, often caused by aging or significant weight loss. Patients should be at a healthy weight and frustrated by excess skin, surface lines, and neck wrinkles. The procedure is most effective for individuals seeking substantial skin tightening and neck profile enhancement.

Neck Lift Surgical Procedure

Neck lift surgery is performed under general anesthesia with strategic incisions placed behind or in front of the ears and potentially underneath the chin. The surgical process may include liposuction to remove fat pockets, followed by precise skin trimming and tightening to achieve the desired neck contour. Specialized techniques ensure minimal visible scarring.

Recovery and Results

Post-surgical recovery involves temporary swelling and bruising, which typically subsides within several days. Patients are advised to rest and avoid high-impact activities for several weeks. Most individuals experience immediate visible improvements, with the neck appearing more refined and youthful.

Combining Procedures

Neck lift surgery can be effectively combined with other facial procedures like facelifts or chin augmentation. During consultation, Plastic Surgery Vegas specialists can develop a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to individual aesthetic goals.
