A neck lift, also known as lower rhytidectomy, is a highly effective cosmetic procedure designed to tighten loose skin, reduce wrinkles, and redefine the jawline and neck area.

With advanced surgical techniques and experienced surgeons in Turkey, neck lift surgery offers safe, natural-looking, and long-lasting rejuvenation results.

Recovery Process

Recovery after a neck lift is generally smooth and manageable:

• Mild swelling and bruising are normal

• Compression garments may be recommended

• Most patients return to daily activities in 10–14 days

• Strenuous exercise should be avoided for 3–4 weeks

• Final results appear within 3–6 months

Proper aftercare supports optimal healing.

What Is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift is a cosmetic surgery procedure that improves visible signs of aging in the neck and jawline area. It removes excess skin, tightens underlying muscles, and reduces fat deposits to create a smoother and more youthful contour.

This procedure is often combined with facelift or chin surgery for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

How Is Neck Lift Surgery Performed?

Neck lift surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia and takes about 2–3 hours.

Depending on your needs, your surgeon may:

• Remove excess skin

• Tighten neck muscles (platysmaplasty)

• Remove localized fat deposits

• Improve jawline definition

• Reposition tissues

The technique is customized to ensure natural-looking results.
