When is the Best Time to Get a Neck Lift?

Getting older means dealing with body changes that you don't like. For instance, sagging skin around the neck or excess fat deposits can cause self-confidence problems and embarrassment when you're out.

If you've tried everything from exercise to other cosmetic treatments without relief of sagging neck skin, you should consider a neck lift. Dr. Anthony N. Dardano provides plastic and reconstructive surgery at his Boca Raton, Florida office.

What is a neck lift?

A neck lift is a cosmetic surgery that decreases signs of aging in the neck and jawline. Our tissue procedures tighten the muscle during neck lift surgery for a sculpted appearance.

The goal of a neck lift is to decrease excess skin or fat around the neck and jawline, creating a "turkey neck" appearance. The result is a tighter jawline and more pronounced features that no longer hide behind excess skin.

A neck lift is a surgical alternative to other treatments that don't successfully give you the desired results. Unfortunately, the skin and fat around the neck region don't often respond well to diet and exercise alone.

Who needs a neck lift?

Many people can have a neck lift, especially those unhappy with their profile or sagging skin around the neck. A neck lift addresses various concerns, including:

Some people want a neck lift after significant weight loss because it leaves them with excess and sagging skin, especially around the face and neck.

When to consider a neck lift

Not everyone who is unhappy with their appearance needs a neck lift. However, surgery is a consideration if changing your diet and exercising doesn't give you the desired results. However, there are other alternatives as well, which include:

You may want to consider a neck lift if these treatments have not provided the desired outcome or if you have severe sagging skin that will not improve without surgical intervention.

If you’re looking for a procedure that takes years off your appearance, tightens the skin around your neck, and lasts for a long time, a neck lift could be the right choice.

Benefits of a neck lift

The benefits of a neck lift are numerous, especially if you're struggling with self-confidence because of your neck. Although it may take a few months to see the final result, it's a much better option, providing long-term results than other methods.

A neck lift has many other benefits, including the fact that it lasts for many years. Other advantages include the following:

There are also some risks associated with a neck lift, but the benefits often outweigh the risks. At your initial appointment, Dr. Dardano will discuss the benefits and risks and when to consider a neck lift.
