Over time, we lose our youthful contours in our faces and down our necks and these changes in our facial features could be due to old age, gravity, stress, environmental conditions or most likely a combination of all these factors.
A full facelift is usually one solution to rejuvenate your youthful look. However, there are cases whereby a patient’s upper facial area still displays a youthful look but excess wrinkling on the neck’s skin and a double chin are apparent. If your neck area doesn’t align with your upper facial appearance, then undergoing a neck lift might be a solution for you.
A Neck Lift, or its technical term Lower Rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that enhances visible signs of ageing in your jawline and down your neck. The procedure might be performed on its own or as a part of a facelift.

In preparation for a neck lift treatment procedure, you may be advised to do the following:
On the day of your scheduled surgery, it is advisable that you wear loose and comfortable clothing. Wear a type of clothing that you will not need to pull over your head and neck. In terms of anaesthetics, you may opt for sedation and local anaesthesia or go under general anaesthesia.
During your surgery, if minimal contouring is needed, it can be done with liposuction alone. As for a full neck lift procedure, incisions may be done either under your chin or behind your ears. These incisions will be closed with sutures and drains may also be placed before your wounds are bandaged.
A neck lift is an outpatient surgical procedure, however, you also have the option to stay overnight in the hospital. You should remain in the Penang for at least 4-5 days after the surgery as there will be scheduled follow-up check-ups with your surgeon to monitor your healing. The sutures will need to be removed after a few days.
Typically, most people are able to return back to work in ten to fourteen days. In terms of having a physically active lifestyle like playing sports or exercise, you will need to wait at least three weeks or when your doctor gives you the all-clear.
Note that it will most likely take several weeks to a couple of months for the swelling to fully disappear. You will be given specific instructions as to how to take care of your surgical site and drains, as well as medications to apply or take orally to help with your healing and to reduce the risk of infections. It is very important that you give yourself ample time to heal to get the most benefit from your treatment procedure.
Results for neck lift surgery are normally long-lasting. In general, patients who have gone through a neck lift surgery have been very satisfied with the results.
