Conveniently located to serve Panama City, FL, Destin, FL, Lynn Haven, FL, Tallahassee, FL & Dothan, AL

At the Plastic Surgery Institute & Spa in Lynn Haven, just north of Panama City, neck lift surgery is a specialty of Dr. Pfeifer and Dr. Ceydeli. The problem with time is the effects it has on your skin. Combined with the effects of gravity and other environmental factors, your skin’s elasticity can take a significant hit, especially around your neck. Your skin is no longer able to produce adequate amounts of elastin and collagen. These essential proteins are the ones responsible for keeping your skin tight and firm.

When your skin becomes saggy and loose around the neck, it can give you an aged appearance. You will get what some people call a turkey neck, which can affect how you feel about your appearance. Jowls can start forming in the lower portion of your face, making your neck look older than the rest of your body. Most people often deal with these issues by wearing a scarf or turtleneck throughout the year.

What is a Neck Lift?

The technical name of the surgery is a platysmaplasty, but most people refer to it as a neck lift, as it lifts the skin in the neck region, giving a smoother and more youthful appearance. Oftentimes, the surgery is combined with a facelift, to give a full rejuvenated look.

What are the Benefits of a Neck Lift?

Fortunately, you don’t have to deal with this for the rest of your life if you choose to undergo a neck lift. A neck lift is an amazing cosmetic surgery that will improve the appearance of your neck. Not only will it make the skin smoother but can also make you look younger.

This cosmetic procedure focuses on the soft tissues located in your neck. By repositioning and lifting these tissues, Dr. Ceydeli will make this region tighter and smoother. The doctor will secure your skin with sutures and remove excess layers.

What to Expect on the Day of Neck Lift?

A neck lift is performed under general anesthesia and you can go home after the successful completion of the procedure. In less than a week or two, you should be able to resume regular activities. The incisions are made behind your ears and under your chin, so no one will be able to tell you underwent a cosmetic procedure.

Make sure you follow the recommendations of the medical professional after the cosmetic procedure is complete. These instructions will help you take care of yourself. It will also inform you of what activities won’t have an impact on your body’s ability to heal.

Neck Lift Recovery

It’s important to note that the final results will not be seen for 6-12 weeks. Recovery time is usually 1-2 weeks. In some cases, drains will have to be removed after one week. We recommend our patients use this time to rest and recover. It’s a great time to catch up on a good book or Netflix series.

Neck lift FAQs

Can I combine a neck lift with other procedures?

It’s very often to combine the surgery with a facelift, eyelid surgery, or brow lift. During your consultation, let the surgeons know your aesthetic goals and they’ll create a surgical plan that’s tailored to your needs.

Is there a non-surgical option?

In some cases, there are non-surgical options to help achieve a more defined neck and jaw area. For example, radiofrequency, BOTOX, or Kybella. None of the options will be able to provide the same results as a neck lift. During your consultation, your surgeon will be able to go over all options and explain the benefits of each.

How long will the results last?

Your surgery should last for several years. At some point, it is common for patients to desire a 2nd surgery, as aging and time can make the neck region sag, even after surgery.
