Conveniently located to serve St. Petersburg, Tampa Bay, and Clearwater.
Neck Lift Benefits
As a person gets older, their neck loses its shape and definition. Stubborn fat deposits form, creating a double chin, and the neck muscles sag, resulting in a turkey-wattle neck. The skin of the neck also becomes loose and droops. This creates an out-of-shape or aged look.
A neck lift can effectively treat these visible signs of aging, creating a more defined lower face. Also called a lower rhytidectomy, the neck lift can sculpt the neck by contouring away a double chin and tightening sagging neck muscles and loose skin.
This neck plastic surgery procedure can be performed as a standalone operation or can be combined with a facelift for even more comprehensive anti-aging results.

Good Candidates for a Neck Lift
Ideal candidates for neck lift surgery are in good overall health with realistic expectations. If you want to get rid of your double chin, excess fat, or redundant skin on your neck and show a more contoured jawline, then this form of neck rejuvenation is ideal. Patients must be non-smokers or willing to quit several weeks prior to the surgery.
The Procedure
To perform a neck lift, general anesthesia or a combination of sedation and local anesthesia is used. An incision is made in front of the ear and continued behind the ear and another is made underneath the chin. Through these incisions, excess fat can be removed either directly or using a liposuction cannula. If loose, the platysma muscle is then tightened to treat harsh vertical bands and improve the contour of the neck. Any excess skin can then be removed before closing the incisions.
Neck Lift Recovery and Healing
Patients can expect one to two weeks to recover from neck lift surgery. During this time, it is normal to have some bruising, swelling, and discomfort. It is important to rest and avoid strenuous activity during the healing process.
Financing Options
