What is a Neck Lift?
One of the earliest signs of facial aging in men begins in the neck. Excess skin and tissue can become more prominent and sag underneath the chin and in the neck, creating a poorly defined jaw line and an aged appearance. A neck lift can tighten the skin and soft tissue of the neck and jaw line, turning back the clock and creating a more masculine look. Often, a neck lift is performed together with a facelift, brow lift, eyelid lift, or chin augmentation. A neck lift for men is a tailored procedure with incisions on or under the neck, which is a better position for men based on their anatomy and hair pattern. Dr. Janiga will discuss these different options at your consultation.
The Procedure
The neck lift for men can be performed in conjunction with other facial procedures like a facelift or chin augmentation. Once an incision is made, excess skin and fat can be removed and a younger, more masculine jawline can be created. Finally, the incisions are closed, and you can return home.

Depending on your profession and need for personal discretion, you may need to allow seven to 14 days before returning to in-person work with clients. You’ll be able to hold meetings and do desk and phone work within just a few days. Full results are expected within three months.
Typical results include a more defined and masculine neck and jaw line, improved muscle tone and neck contour, and firmer, smoother skin. Dr. Janiga will give you a realistic idea of your personal outcome during your private consultation.
