We spend so much time talking about our face. Our eyes. Our skin. Our smile. But the neck often tells a different story. For many people, it is one of the first areas to show visible signs of aging and one of the hardest to disguise.
If you’ve ever loved how your face looks but felt your neck didn’t quite match, you’re not alone. This is one of the most common concerns we hear at Belmont, and it is also one of the most rewarding areas to treat.
Over time, natural aging, genetics, weight changes, and gravity all affect the neck. Skin can loosen. Bands can appear. Fat can collect beneath the chin. The jawline can soften. Even patients who take excellent care of their skin often notice changes in the neck that don’t respond to creams, lasers, or injectables alone.
People pursue a neck lift for many reasons, including:
Many of our patients tell us they feel confident from the front, but avoid side profile photos, certain clothing, or even Zoom angles because their neck gives away their age more than their face does.
A neck lift is designed to refine the area from the jawline to the collarbone. Depending on your individual anatomy, it can tighten skin, smooth bands, remove excess fat, and restore a clean, youthful contour beneath the chin.
Dr. Feledy customizes every neck lift based on the unique needs of each patient. Some patients require only subtle tightening. Others benefit from a combination of muscle tightening and contouring beneath the chin. The goal is never to change who you are. It is to restore balance, definition, and a natural, refreshed appearance.
The result should never look tight or overdone. It should look like you, just more sculpted, rested, and confident.
The transformation from a neck lift is often subtle, yet incredibly powerful. Patients commonly notice:
Perhaps most importantly, patients often share that they feel more confident in their appearance without feeling like they look “done.”
Recovery varies based on the extent of the procedure, but most patients take one to two weeks away from work and social activities. Swelling and bruising are expected early and continue to improve gradually. Results become more refined over the following weeks and months as the tissue settles.
Our Belmont team guides you through every step, from preoperative preparation to post operative care, so you feel informed, supported, and confident throughout your experience.
If you find yourself fixating on your neck in mirrors or photos, and non-surgical treatments are no longer giving you the improvement you want, a neck lift may be worth exploring.
The best way to know is through a private consultation with Dr. Feledy. Your anatomy, goals, and options will be reviewed carefully to create a plan that feels right for you.
At Belmont, we believe confidence should feel natural and effortless. Whether your transformation is subtle or significant; our goal is always the same results that enhance your natural beauty and allow you to walk into every room feeling your very best.
If your neck has been quietly holding you back, it may be time to give your profile the strength and refinement it deserves.
