Neck Lift Surgical Information provided by Dr. Robert S. Houser
A necklift is similar to the neck portion of the facelift, but does not focus on treating the upper face. The incisions may either be similar to the facelift incision, or confined to the incision below the chin. Suture suspensions may also be employed in combination with the lift to produce a more dramatic effect. The recovery and results are very similar to the facelift.
