Necklift

Refine and Rejuvenate Your Neck for a Youthful, Defined Contour

A necklift is a surgical procedure that tightens loose skin, removes excess fat, and redefines the jawline and neck. It restores a smoother, firmer, and more youthful neck contour.

As the skin ages, it loses elasticity, leading to sagging, creases, and the appearance of neck bands or jowls. A necklift addresses these concerns by removing excess skin, tightening underlying muscles, and sculpting the jawline.
This procedure is often combined with a facelift or other facial surgeries for more comprehensive results. The outcome is a more defined and rejuvenated neck, enhancing overall facial harmony.

Procedure Time: 45 minutes – 1.5 hours
Anaesthesia: Local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia
Downtime/Recovery: 1–2 weeks
