As you age, your skin loses much of its natural elasticity, leading to unwanted symptoms such as sagging, drooping, wrinkles, and fine lines. These signs of age can be especially pronounced around the neck, but a neck lift effectively rejuvenates your appearance.
Neck lifts can be performed either on their own or in conjunction with a facelift, providing long-lasting and natural-looking results. Some of the primary reasons to seek a neck lift include:
Following your neck lift, you will be discharged to head home for rest and recovery. Your doctor will provide bandages to minimize swelling and provide support. Most patients feel ready to resume their normal school and work activities after a week, though we recommend abstaining from vigorous exercise for four to six weeks. While some tenderness can be expected following your neck lift, medications are available to promote your comfort.
It’s important to note that the final results may take time to be visible. It often takes several weeks to months for swelling to reduce and for your neck to heal completely.
Everyone’s recovery process varies, but your neck should typically look and feel almost completely healed by the fourth week post-surgery. Once the swelling subsides, you should notice visible improvements and a revitalized appearance of your lower face, jawline, and neck.
