How Long Does a Neck Lift Last?

Are you tired of looking in the mirror and feeling older than you are? You’re not alone; a lot of people feel this way!

However, it is not something you simply need to accept. There are a lot of great treatments out there that can take 10 years off your appearance in a couple of hours, and a neck lift is one of these. Dr. Scott Holley, one of the most highly trained plastic and reconstructive surgeons in the country, can achieve graceful, natural results with the neck lift, which not only improves your skin’s laxity but can give your overall appearance a more slender, younger feel.

Neck Lift Overview

A neck lift, also referred to as lower rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic procedure that removes the excess fat and skin around your jawline, creating a more youthful-looking and defined neck.

The results are long-lasting, yet the surgery cannot stop the aging process. While the improvements to your neck will remain, new signs of aging can accumulate in the future.

How soon will you see results? They’re usually noticeable straight after the procedure is finished. Nevertheless, patients should know that it can take a few weeks or even a couple of months for the symptoms to subside, including bruising and swelling. Once the side effects start fading, the results of this procedure will be much more apparent.

There is no denying the neck is a part of the face that can make us look older, which is why many people decide to have a neck lift. This is a treatment that can be carried out on its own or as part of a facelift.

The cost of a neck lift can depend on a number of different factors. This includes the geographic location of the medical center, the type of procedure used, and the surgeon’s experience.

Costs can range from $5,000 to $10,000. This will also depend on whether you have the neck lift as part of a facelift or as a standalone procedure.

You also need to consider whether or not the cost includes the following: surgeon’s fees, prescriptions for medication, post-surgery garments, medical tests, surgical or hospital facility costs, and anesthesia fees.

Am I a Candidate for a Neck Lift?

There are a few things Dr. Holley will discuss with you before getting a neck lift to make sure you are an ideal candidate. The first thing will be regarding your overall health and whether or not you have underlying conditions or take certain medications. As with any surgery, it is important to be healthy enough to have surgery and recovery effectively.

It is essential to have realistic expectations as well. Dr. Holley will discuss this with you, as results can vary from person to person, depending on the elasticity and condition of your skin, your specific features and aesthetic goals, and your age.
