Neck Lift

A neck lift, also known as platysmaplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the neck by removing excess skin and fat, tightening the underlying muscles, and improving the contour of the neck and jawline. This procedure can significantly rejuvenate the overall appearance, providing a more youthful and defined look.

What Is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift addresses sagging skin, excess fat, and muscle banding in the neck area. The procedure can be performed alone or in combination with a facelift for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
