What Is A Neck Lift?
Do you find yourself dressing strategically or holding your head at awkward angles to hide flaps of loose skin on your neck? If that sounds familiar, you may be a good candidate for neck lift surgery at San Diego Plastic Surgery Center in San Diego, CA. Board-eligible plastic surgeon Dr. Jose Rodriguez is excited to offer neck lifts for men and women who want to reduce sagging and tighten up their neckline for a more youthful appearance. This facial surgery recontours and reshapes the area beneath your chin and the entire neck to remove a "double chin" or "turkey neck." By removing loose skin and fat while using a tightening method to result in a softer neckline, this lower facial surgery can provide dramatic improvements to your profile.

How Does Neck Lift Surgery Work?
Neck lift surgery is performed at our office in San Diego, CA using IV sedation or general anesthesia for your comfort. To start, Dr. Rodriguez will make an incision just in front of or behind your ears with another one potentially being made under the chin. Liposuction will be performed under the chin to remove any excess fat in the area. Following that, any sagging or hanging skin will be carefully excised, and the remaining skin will be pulled tight.
This tightening method is conducted until the desired contour has been achieved. Once Dr. Rodriguez is done, he'll close the incisions with sutures under the chin to reduce any visible scarring.

The cost of a neck lift varies depending on factors like the complexity of the procedure, anesthesia, and facility fees. During your consultation, Dr. Rodriguez will discuss your aesthetic goals and create a personalized treatment plan with a detailed cost estimate. To make your neck lift more affordable, San Diego Plastic Surgery Center offers several payment methods and can provide information on financing options with low-interest rates.
Neck lift surgery involves one incision under the chin and two more near the ears. Dr. Rodriguez places these incisions carefully to minimize visible scarring, making it difficult for others to notice. You'll receive detailed scar care instructions to help your incisions heal flat and blend naturally with your skin, resulting in scars that are often barely noticeable over time.
Combining a neck lift with other facial procedures, like a facelift or chin augmentation, can help create balanced, comprehensive results. If you have concerns about your jawline or chin definition, let Dr. Rodriguez know during your consultation, and he can customize a treatment plan that includes the right combination of procedures for your goals.
The choice between a neck lift and neck liposuction depends on your specific goals. Liposuction alone may be ideal if you have only excess fat, but a neck lift can be more beneficial for loose skin. Combining both procedures may be recommended if you're looking to address both sagging skin and pockets of fat. Dr. Rodriguez will guide you on the best approach to achieve a smooth, well-defined neck during your consultation.
