Why people consider it
What are the benefits?
- Considered for the line under the chin
- The neck on its own, rather than only as part of a facelift
- Usually presentable again at about two weeks
Often considered in the situations above. A consultation is the place to talk about the result you have in mind, and whether this procedure is a sensible way there. Nothing is offered until that conversation has happened. Individual results vary.
A neck lift is for the neck itself: the line under the chin, and the skin that sits there. The scar is usually under the chin and around the ear.
A neck lift is sometimes combined with a facelift in the same surgical session.
