A youthful, well-defined neck plays a major role in how refreshed and confident we look. For many patients, concerns such as loose skin, visible neck bands, or fullness under the chin can make the face appear older, even when other features still look vibrant. Neck lift surgery is one of the most impactful ways to restore a smooth neckline and a more defined jawline.
At Belmont Plastic Surgery, neck lifts are performed with a focus on natural results, balance, and long-term improvement. The goal is never to look overdone, but to help patients look rested, confident, and like the best version of themselves.
A neck lift is a surgical procedure designed to improve the contour of the neck and jawline. It addresses aging changes by tightening underlying muscles, removing excess fat, and refining loose skin. This approach creates a smoother, firmer neck and a more youthful profile.
Neck lift surgery can correct:
Because the procedure focuses on the deeper structures of the neck, results are more dramatic and longer lasting than non-surgical treatments.
The neck frames the face. Even with injectables, lasers, and great skin care, an aging neck can make the entire face appear older. Improving the neck often enhances the appearance of the jawline and lower face, creating better overall balance.
Patients often say they look younger and more refreshed, even though friends cannot pinpoint exactly what changed. This subtle but powerful improvement is one of the reasons neck lifts are such a popular option.
You may be a good candidate for neck lift surgery if:
Some patients benefit from a neck lift alone, while others combine it with a facelift for more comprehensive facial rejuvenation. During a consultation at Belmont Plastic Surgery, your anatomy and goals are carefully evaluated to determine the best treatment plan.
Non-surgical treatments such as Botox, fillers, RF microneedling, and skin tightening can be effective for early signs of aging or maintenance. These treatments are often part of a broader aesthetic plan.
However, when skin laxity and muscle changes are more advanced, surgery provides the most reliable and lasting results. A neck lift offers:
Our philosophy is simple. We recommend what works best for your anatomy and your goals.
Recovery from neck lift surgery is generally very manageable. Swelling and bruising are expected initially, but most patients return to normal activities within a couple of weeks. As healing continues, the neck becomes smoother and more refined over time.
Patients frequently share that one of the biggest benefits is no longer feeling self-conscious about their neck. Clothes fit better, photos look better, and confidence improves.
At Belmont Plastic Surgery, neck lift procedures are performed with precision, experience, and an emphasis on natural looking outcomes. Every treatment plan is customized to the individual, ensuring results that feel balanced and authentic.
