Neck lift surgery targets one of the first areas to show signs of ageing, as the skin and muscles in the neck lose elasticity, leading to lines and wrinkles. Significant weight loss can also contribute to loose neck skin, making the area appear aged. This procedure is specifically designed to rejuvenate the neck, creating a smoother, firmer, and more youthful appearance.
The neck is often one of the first areas to show signs of ageing. If you are unhappy with the appearance of your neck, whether due to ageing or significant weight loss, a neck lift may help.
A neck lift is a type of cosmetic surgery designed to reshape and tighten the skin around the neck and jawline, reducing sagging, wrinkles, and other visible signs of ageing. The procedure creates a smoother, firmer, and more youthful appearance.
Neck lift surgery typically addresses loose or sagging skin under the chin and along the neck, sometimes called a “turkey wattle.” It can also improve vertical bands or wrinkles caused by weakened neck muscles and remove excess fat through liposuction or tighten muscles for better definition.
A neck lift can be performed alone or alongside a facelift, depending on the results desired. Patients are cared for by an experienced, multidisciplinary team throughout the treatment process.
People choose cosmetic surgery for a variety of reasons, with benefits that vary based on individual goals. Necklift Surgery in particular offers several notable advantages, including:

Everything you need to know about neck lift surgery
What is a neck lift?
A neck lift is a cosmetic surgical procedure that tightens loose skin, removes excess fat, and improves muscle tone in the neck area to create a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Who is a good candidate for a neck lift?
Ideal candidates are adults with sagging neck skin, “turkey wattle,” vertical bands, or excess fat under the chin who are in good overall health and have realistic expectations.
How long does a neck lift last?
The results of a neck lift are long-lasting, typically 7–10 years, though natural ageing will continue over time.
What does neck lift surgery involve?
The procedure usually involves removing excess skin, tightening underlying muscles, and sometimes using liposuction to remove excess fat for a firmer, more defined neck and jawline.
Is neck lift surgery painful?
Most patients experience mild to moderate discomfort, swelling, and bruising, which can be managed with prescribed pain medication and generally improve within 1–2 weeks.
How long is recovery after a neck lift?
Initial recovery typically takes 2–3 weeks, with most people returning to normal activities within 4–6 weeks. Final results can take several months as swelling fully subsides.
Will neck lift surgery leave scars?
Incisions are strategically placed under the chin and behind the ears, making scars discreet and usually well-concealed once healed.
Can a neck lift be combined with other procedures?
Yes. A neck lift is often performed alongside a facelift, brow lift, or eyelid surgery for a more comprehensive facial rejuvenation with consistent results.
Real, verified reviews
I was very concerned about my breast implant removal and the shape I would be left with. I opted for a removal and an uplift. I love the look of my breasts after the operation. They have a great shape and I feel so confident about my new look. I was also concerned about the scarring but that seems to be fading relatively quickly. An amazing surgeon he put me at ease throughout and I wish I had done this sooner. If I were to have further surgery I would go back to Andrej.
I am incredibly pleased with the outstanding care and expertise Maria Chasapi has brought to my surgery. From the initial consultation to the final follow-up, her professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail were second to none. She took the time to understand my goals, explained every step with clarity, and made me feel completely at ease throughout the process. The results have exceeded my expectations—not just aesthetically, but in how confident and comfortable I now feel.
Mr Salibi listened to my concerns, he explained the procedure in great detail and answered my list of questions. His persona, his calmess, his reassurance left me feeling at ease and I was so eager to have my tummy tuck after years of hiding my body under smocks and over shirts. I am now six weeks post op and cannot stop smiling... My scar is so neat, so perfect and is healing exceptionally well. My body confidence has returned and I cannot thank My Salibi enough for working his magic.
