What Is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift, also known as lower rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure that improves visible signs of aging in the neck and jawline. It typically involves removing excess skin, tightening underlying muscles, and refining the contour of the neck.

At SOMA, neck lift procedures in Beverly Hills are designed to restore definition without creating an over-tightened or unnatural look. The goal is a smooth, refined neckline that complements your facial features.

Benefits of a Neck Lift

A neck lift offers both aesthetic improvement and enhanced definition.

  • Tightens loose or sagging skin in the neck.
  • Improves jawline definition and contour.
  • Reduces the appearance of a “double chin.”
  • Creates a smoother, more youthful neckline.
  • Provides long-lasting, natural-looking results.

What a Neck Lift Can Address

A neck lift is designed to improve several common concerns related to the lower face and neck.

Loose or Sagging Skin

Loss of elasticity can cause the skin to droop. A neck lift tightens and smooths this area.

Excess Fat Under the Chin

Fat deposits beneath the chin can create fullness or a double chin, which can be reduced during the procedure.

Muscle Banding

Vertical bands in the neck, often caused by muscle separation, can be tightened for a smoother appearance.

Loss of Jawline Definition

A neck lift helps restore a more defined transition between the jawline and neck.

Types of Neck Lift Techniques

At SOMA, the most appropriate technique is selected based on your individual needs.

Traditional Neck Lift

This approach addresses both skin laxity and underlying structures for comprehensive contouring.

Limited Incision Neck Lift

A less extensive option for patients with mild to moderate concerns, involving smaller incisions and shorter recovery.

Neck Liposuction

In some cases, liposuction may be used alone or in combination with a neck lift to remove excess fat and refine contour.

Who Is a Good Candidate for a Neck Lift?

A neck lift may be appropriate for individuals experiencing visible signs of aging in the neck and jawline. Candidates are typically in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the results.

This procedure is often chosen by patients who want to improve contour and definition in the lower face and neck. A professional evaluation is necessary to determine candidacy and the most effective approach.

What to Expect During Neck Lift Surgery

Neck lift surgery is performed in a controlled, accredited surgical setting and typically takes two to three hours.

Muscle Tightening

Underlying neck muscles are tightened to create a firmer, more supportive structure.

Skin Removal

Excess skin is removed, and the remaining skin is repositioned for a smoother contour.

Fat Reduction

Liposuction or direct fat removal may be used to reduce fullness beneath the chin.

Incision Placement

Incisions are typically placed behind the ears and sometimes under the chin to minimize visible scarring.

Anesthesia and Comfort

The procedure is performed under anesthesia to ensure comfort and safety throughout.

Recovery After a Neck Lift

Recovery after a neck lift in Beverly Hills varies depending on the extent of the procedure. Patients may experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort in the initial recovery period. These effects are temporary and typically improve within two to three weeks. Most patients can return to light activities within about one to two weeks, with a gradual return to normal routines. Your provider will give you detailed aftercare instructions to support proper healing.

Results Over Time

As swelling subsides, the neck will appear smoother, tighter, and more defined. The jawline becomes more distinct, creating a refreshed and balanced profile.

Final results continue to improve over several months as healing progresses, with long-lasting enhancement in contour and definition.

Combining a Neck Lift With Other Procedures

A neck lift is often combined with other procedures to achieve more comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

Facelift

A facelift can complement a neck lift by addressing aging in the mid and lower face.

Chin Enhancement

Chin implants or contouring can enhance jawline definition alongside a neck lift.

Non-Surgical Treatments

Injectables or skin treatments may be used to maintain and enhance results over time.

At SOMA, combination procedures are carefully planned to ensure balanced and natural-looking outcomes.
