Intro To Neck Lift

It may surprise you that the skin of your neck is far more susceptible to aging compared to other regions of your body. This occurs due to the delicate nature of neck skin, which contributes to the formation of odd-looking skin folds or “Turkey wattle”. What is the solution, you may ask? Well, let’s introduce you to neck lift. A neck lift, also known as chin lift or lower rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure that removes excess fat and skin from the neck and improves the aging signs and appearance of the jawline and neck. Neck lift has different types, most notably cervicoplasty and platysmaplasty. Your surgeon will choose the type that fits your needs.
