What Is A Neck Lift?
Are you wearing scarves or turtlenecks even in the summer to conceal the loose, flabby skin on your neck? Plastic surgeon Dr. Ben Schultz, ABPS Certified, provides neck lift surgery at his practice in Baltimore, MD, to improve the look of an aging neck. This facial surgery tightens the section under your chin and along the neck to remove a "double chin" or "turkey neck." By taking away the loose skin and fat while incorporating a tightening method to create a softer neckline, this lower facial surgery can provide dramatic improvements to your profile. Before you call to schedule your consultation, read below to learn more about neck lift surgery and the amazing results it can give you.

How is a neck Lift performed?
During a neck lift procedure, general anesthesia is used. An incision is placed around your ears, and another one might also be created underneath your chin. If pockets of fat exist, a form of liposuction would be the first step in the surgical process. Following that, any sagging, loose, or hanging skin will be carefully excised, and the remaining skin will be pulled tight. This technique is performed until the desired shape and contour have been attained. Even though sutures are used to close the incision, scarring should not be seen since they were placed beneath your chin.
Neck Lift FAQs
How do you prepare for a neck lift?
Before undergoing a neck lift, it's important to have a consultation with Dr. Schultz. We can discuss your goals and expectations for the surgery, as well as go over any medical history or current medications you are taking. We may also recommend stopping certain medications before the procedure to minimize bleeding and potential complications.
Will the results of a neck lift look natural?
Yes, the results of a neck lift are designed to look and feel refreshed. Dr. Schultz uses advanced techniques to create a natural-looking neck contour without leaving any visible scars. While your results will depend on your individual anatomy and desired outcomes, we always strive for natural-looking and beautiful results.
Is a neck lift permanent?
A neck lift can effectively remove excess skin and fat from the neck area, providing long-lasting results. However, the aging process will continue, so it's important to maintain a healthy lifestyle and skincare routine in order to prolong the effects of your surgery. Our team in Baltimore, MD, can recommend treatments or procedures that may help maintain your outcomes over time.
