Techniques named for neck lift: deep plane neck lift, Deep-Plane Neck Lift, laser skin resurfacing, Emsculpt muscle building, Platysmaplasty.
which may involve neck lift performed alone or in combination with a full or mini facelift
At the start of the neck lift procedure, anesthesia is administered. Incisions are created under the chin and/or behind the ears.
The primary difference between a male neck lift and a facelift is the scar location: facelift scars run in front of and behind the ear into the hairline, while male neck lift incisions are located directly on the neck.
Neck lift surgery corrects sagging neck skin, double chin, and muscle banding through hidden incisions around ears and hairline.
During a neck lift procedure, muscles are tightened and sagging skin is removed to provide a more youthful appearance.
Chin augmentation can also be combined with rhinoplasty and neck lift surgery to enhance overall facial appearance.
Candidates opting for a facelift or other cosmetic facial procedure can combine it with a neck lift to achieve more comprehensive rejuvenation results.
Male neck lift procedures are typically performed as an outpatient under general anesthesia.
These can be addressed by sewing the edges together or by excising a portion of the muscle so that it is less active and less prominent (platysmaplasty).

A neck lift, also known as a lower rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure that tightens loose skin and underlying muscles in the neck. It improves the jawline, reduces sagging skin, smooths platysmal bands, and diminishes the appearance of a double chin.
For some patients, a neck lift may be performed alongside a facelift for a more complete facial rejuvenation. Dr. Ducic customizes every procedure based on individual anatomy and desired results, with close attention to harmony and proportion.

Nationally, $8,000 to $16,000 including surgeon, anesthesia, and facility. A limited submental platysmaplasty through a single incision under the chin sits at the lower end. A full neck lift with incisions behind the ears and skin removal sits higher. Combining it with a facelift raises the total but costs meaningfully less than doing the two operations separately.
They are neighbors, not synonyms. A facelift repositions the deeper tissue of the cheeks and jawline. A neck lift works below the jaw, tightening the platysma muscle, removing fat above or below it, and trimming loose skin. Many patients need both and have them together. Someone whose face has held up but whose neck has not is the classic candidate for a neck lift alone.
Each has a narrow lane. Botox can soften early muscle bands for a few months. Kybella and CoolSculpting remove fat under the chin but do nothing for loose skin or muscle, and removing fat under lax skin can make hanging worse. Ultrasound and radiofrequency devices tighten mild laxity modestly. Established bands and hanging skin are structural, and surgery is the only treatment that corrects structure.
The platysma is a thin sheet of muscle just under the skin of the neck. With age its front edges loosen and separate, and those edges show through the skin as two vertical cords. They tend to appear in the fifties and become more visible with animation. A platysmaplasty stitches the edges back together in the midline, which is why no cream or injectable reaches the problem.
The workhorse incision hides in the natural crease under the chin and typically heals to a faint line. When skin needs removing, incisions run behind the ears and into the hairline, in the same well-hidden pattern facelifts use. Neck skin heals well in most patients, and visible scarring is uncommon with a surgeon who closes without tension.
