Neck Lift

Lax, weathered neck skin can add years to your appearance and obscure a beautiful, well-defined jawline. A well-done lift with Dr. Rahban can minimize these effects and restore a slim and youthful neck area.

Chin implant + Neck lift

Many of our patients require both a chin augmentation and a neck lift to create their ideal facial appearance. Because each of these procedures improves the facial profile in a unique and important way, they are transformative when combined – allowing Dr. Rahban to realize a whole host of cosmetic benefits, including:

• Strengthening the jawline
• Improving facial proportions
• Sculpting a more prominent chin
• Creating a smoother, younger-looking neck

If you possess a recessed chin, weak jawline, submental fullness and aging neck skin, there is a very strong chance that you will benefit from the combined powers of a chin implant and neck lift.

Dr. Rahban’s goals for a neck lift

When performing neck lifts for his patients, Dr. Rahban aims to address:

• Sun damaged skin on the neck
• Aging, sagging neck skin
• Sagging and separated neck muscles or platysma
• A double chin
• Excess fat or skin
• Heavy jowls

What to expect during your procedure

Dr. Rahban will customize your neck lift based on your needs and goals. To begin, he will make very small incisions in the area, usually hidden around and behind the ears and beneath the chin. Through those openings, he will address any imperfections and signs of aging. For example, he may remove a precise amount of excess fat, tighten lax muscles and address sagging skin. In most cases, he will perform this procedure in conjunction with submental liposuction and/or chin implants, to completely transform the neck and chin area and sculpt a brand new look.

Recovery

Every patient will have a unique recovery experience. However, in general we recommend arranging to stay home from work for at least one to two weeks after surgery to give yourself enough time to heal. We recommend arranging to have a friend or family member stay with you during the first 24 hours to help with your daily routine. During the initial recovery period, it’s important to take your pain medication as prescribed by Dr. Rahban and wear comfortable, loose tops that won’t irritate the neck area.

In addition, you will need to avoid rigorous activity and heavy lifting for a few weeks, as any straining can adversely affect the healing process. In terms of results, it will take time for the tissues to heal and your new neck to emerge. Generally, you can expect the full results to appear within about six months.
