Neck Lift

Redefine Your Jawline, Restore a Youthful Neck Profile

Aging, gravity, weight changes, and genetics can cause sagging skin, excess fat, and muscle banding in the neck area—often referred to as a “turkey neck.” Neck Lift surgery at History Clinic is designed to restore a smooth, firm, and youthful neck and jawline, creating a balanced and rejuvenated facial profile.

Our surgeon-led approach focuses on natural results, long-term improvement, and harmony between the face and neck.

What Is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift (lower rhytidectomy) is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin and fat while tightening the underlying muscles of the neck. It can be performed alone or combined with a facelift for more comprehensive rejuvenation.

At History Clinic, the technique is customized based on skin elasticity, fat distribution, and facial anatomy.

Procedure Duration

2 – 4 hours

(If combined with a facelift, surgery time may be longer.)

Recovery Timeline

1. First 1–2 weeks: swelling and mild bruising
2. 2–4 weeks: return to social life
3. 6 weeks: resume full physical activity
4. 3–6 months: scars soften and final contours emerge

Before Neck Lift Surgery – What to Know

To ensure safe surgery and optimal outcomes, patients should:

1. Stop smoking and alcohol at least 2 weeks before surgery
2. Avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements
3. Maintain stable body weight
4. Undergo facial and neck assessment to determine the best surgical approach

Detailed pre-operative planning at History Clinic ensures natural jawline definition and smooth neck contours.

After Neck Lift Surgery – Aftercare Guidelines

Post-operative care plays a key role in healing and results:

1. Keep the head elevated during the first week
2. Use cold compresses to reduce swelling
3. Avoid strenuous exercise and sun exposure for 4–6 weeks
4. Wear a compression garment if recommended

Swelling and tightness are normal and gradually subside as healing progresses.
