What Is Neck Lift Surgery?
Neck lift surgery, also known as lower rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic procedure that improves visible signs of aging in the neck and jawline. It addresses concerns such as loose skin, excess fat, vertical neck bands, and loss of definition along the jaw.
Neck lift surgery may involve skin tightening, fat removal or repositioning, and platysma muscle tightening to create a smooth, youthful contour that blends seamlessly with the face.
Benefits of Neck Lift Surgery
- Tightens loose or sagging neck skin
- Reduces vertical banding and neck laxity
- Improves jawline definition
- Removes excess fat beneath the chin
- Creates a smoother, more youthful neck profile
- Long-lasting rejuvenation results
Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Neck Lift Surgery?
You may be a good candidate for neck lift surgery with Dr. Obasi if you:
- Have loose skin or sagging in the neck area
- Notice vertical neck bands or muscle laxity
- Feel your jawline has lost definition
- Are in good overall health
- Have realistic expectations about surgical outcomes
During your consultation, Dr. Obasi will assess your skin elasticity, muscle tone, and fat distribution to determine the most effective approach.
How Neck Lift Surgery Is Performed
Neck lift surgery is typically performed under general anesthesia or deep sedation and usually takes two to three hours.
- Incision placement: Incisions are carefully placed behind the ears and sometimes beneath the chin to remain discreet.
- Muscle tightening & fat adjustment: Dr. Obasi tightens the platysma muscle, removes or redistributes excess fat, and restores structural support.
- Skin redraping: Excess skin is trimmed, and the remaining skin is gently repositioned for a smooth, natural contour.
- Closure: Incisions are closed meticulously to promote optimal healing and minimal scarring
Preparing for Your Neck Lift Surgery
To prepare for surgery, Dr. Obasi may recommend:
- Stopping smoking several weeks before surgery
- Avoiding blood-thinning medications or supplements
- Completing any required medical clearance
- Arranging transportation and postoperative assistance
- Following personalized preoperative instructions
Proper preparation helps ensure a smoother recovery and optimal results.
What To Expect During Neck Lift Surgery
On the day of surgery, you’ll receive anesthesia for comfort and safety. Dr. Obasi performs the procedure with precision and attention to facial balance, ensuring your neck blends naturally with your overall appearance.
Most patients return home the same day with compression dressings and detailed aftercare instructions.
Neck Lift Surgery Recovery & Aftercare
- First week: Swelling, bruising, and tightness are normal. Head elevation and limited activity are recommended.
- Second and third week: Many patients return to work and light activities as swelling continues to improve.
- Weeks 6 to 12: Final contour becomes more visible as healing progresses and residual swelling resolves.
Dr. Obasi closely monitors recovery through follow-up visits to ensure safe healing and beautiful results.
What Results Can I Expect From Neck Lift Surgery?
Neck lift surgery delivers noticeable yet refined rejuvenation. Patients typically experience:
- A smoother, tighter neck
- Improved jawline definition

Neck lift surgery can take 10 to 15 years off your appearance when combined with healthy lifestyle habits.
