Restore Neck Definition with Expert Neck Lift Surgery
A neck lift is a surgical procedure that improves the appearance of the jawline and neck. It can decrease the signs of aging, smooth asymmetric contours, and treat excess skin and fatty deposits under the neck and chin.
Aging, heredity, environment, and stress are all factors that can cause a loss of the contours and shapeliness of the chin, neck, and jawline. Patients who opt for a neck lift in Chicago seek to improve visible sagging and prominent jowls.

WHAT IS A NECK LIFT?
People often get a neck lift to combat aging by removing loose neck skin, preventing jowls from forming, removing excess fatty deposits, and resolving muscle banding around the neck.
This process creates a youthful look for the neck, reducing wrinkles and sagging, as well as a double chin and a turkey-wattle neck. The neck lift can often be paired with a facelift for more comprehensive rejuvenation.
Key Benefits of Neck Lift Surgery
- Improved Contour: Tightens loose skin and redefines the jawline for a youthful appearance.
- Reduction of Fat Deposits: Removes excess fat beneath the chin and along the jawline.
- Enhanced Skin Quality: Tightens remaining tissue, resulting in firmer skin texture.
- Long-Lasting Results: Many patients enjoy enduring improvements with proper care.
- Minimal Scarring: Incisions are strategically placed to reduce visible scarring.
- Aesthetic Harmony: Enhances balance between the neck and face.
AM I A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR A NECK LIFT?
- Deflation: Noticeable fat loss and hollowness below the cheeks or in the neck/jaw.
- Radial Expansion: Weakening facial ligaments cause loose jawline and smile lines.
- Neck Sagging: Accumulated fat and loose skin around the jaw and neck.
Those with chronic conditions, anesthesia allergies, or smokers may not be ideal candidates. Non-smokers with good overall health are best suited for this procedure.

Neck Lift FAQs: What Patients Ask Most
Will there be visible scars after my surgery?
While all surgical procedures involve some degree of scarring, skilled surgeons aim to place incisions in discreet locations that are less noticeable over time—often under the chin or behind the ears—to minimize visibility.
Can I combine other procedures with my neck lift?
Yes, many patients combine their neck lifts with facelifts or eyelid surgeries for comprehensive rejuvenation effects across multiple areas of concern during one recovery period.
What type of anesthesia is used during the procedure?
A neck lift is usually performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, depending on the complexity of your case and your surgeon's recommendation.
How long do the results of a neck lift last?
The longevity of results varies by individual but can last several years with proper care. Skin type, age, and lifestyle choices significantly affect how long results may endure.
