A re you starting to see signs of aging on your neck and jawline? A lower rhytidectomy, or neck lift, could be the solution. It’s designed to target those pesky bags and wrinkles, sometimes called a “turkey neck,” by surgically removing excess skin and fat from the area and reshaping your neck and jawline from the inside. This procedure is medically termed platysmaplasty and can help significantly reduce visible signs of aging in the neck area.
To achieve a more youthful look, neck lift surgery may include liposuction to eliminate extra fat and Botox injections to minimize fullness or vertical bands. The procedure typically involves making an incision behind the ears and chin before removing excess skin and tightening underlying tissues. With this combination of techniques, you can have a beautiful improved neck contour.
Non-surgical procedures can also address the signs of aging in the lower face and neck. Submental or chin liposuction, Kybella injections (deoxycholic acid), and CoolSculpting can help remove excess fat from the neck area. While these treatments may be suitable for some individuals, they are not as effective or long-lasting as a surgical procedure such as a neck lift.
A neck lift is a cosmetic procedure that can help to reduce the signs of aging in the neck area. It can help to restore a youthful and refreshed appearance while also providing many other benefits.
Some of the top benefits of receiving a neck lift include:
A neck lift may be suitable for you if you want to improve your neck’s appearance and tone.

Dr. Hall is committed to the best care for his patients. For the optimal surgical outcome and safety, he recommends surgical patients to have a BMI below 33. For patients above this range, he offers a comprehensive weight loss program. Click here to find out more.
During the consultation, board-certified Knoxville plastic surgeon Dr. Jason Hall will evaluate your neck area and discuss the desired outcome of the procedure with you. He will take measurements to ensure precise results. You will also have a chance to ask any questions about the surgery and other possible treatments that could help you reach your goals.
To prepare for a neck lift, it is crucial to stop smoking or drinking alcohol at least two weeks before the procedure, as they can interfere with healing post-surgery. You may also need to avoid taking certain medications, such as ibuprofen and aspirin, as well as vitamins and supplements that can thin the blood before surgery. It is also essential to follow all pre-operative instructions given by your doctor, such as adhering to a healthy diet and avoiding strenuous activities during the weeks leading up to surgery.
A neck lift can be a great way to improve the appearance of your neck and jawline. However, other procedures can be combined with a neck lift to maximize the results. Rejuvenation procedures such as a brow lift, fat transfer, eyelid lift, and facial fat grafting can all help to enhance the effects of a neck lift. Combining these procedures means you only have to go through one recovery period instead of multiple recoveries.
For example, adding a facelift can substantially improve your overall appearance if you have a neck lift. Additionally, Botox and injectable fillers can reduce wrinkles and add volume to areas that may have lost elasticity due to aging.
Overall, combining complementary procedures with a neck lift is an excellent way to achieve more dramatic results while minimizing recovery time.
Dr. Hall uses the deep plane neck lift technique to create optimal chin and neck contours. To prevent discomfort during the procedure, Dr. Hall uses a local anesthetic combined with a general anesthetic for all his neck lift procedures. The entire operation usually takes between two to three hours from start to finish, depending on the complexity of the case and other factors. After the procedure, patients can expect to leave with minimal scarring and a more youthful, refreshed look in their neck area.
A neck lift can help reduce the visible effects of aging in the neck area. Though some pain and discomfort following surgery may occur, it can easily be managed with medication. As for swelling and bruising, those should subside within four to six weeks post-surgery; scars will take around six months to up to a year before fully disappearing. Patients can expect a “social” downtime of 2 weeks where you will want to avoid seeing friends and family you don’t want to know you had a procedure.
It’s important for patients to take time off from work and other activities during their recovery period. It’s also important to avoid strenuous activities such as exercise or lifting heavy objects for at least two weeks after surgery. Additionally, patients should keep their incisions clean and dry, and follow any instructions regarding wound care.
