Neck Lift is a surgery designed to give better definition to the neck area and under the jaw line, lessening wrinkles and diminishing unsightly 'banding' in the neck. . For the mini neck lift, a small incision is made under the chin. Any excess fat is removed. The neck muscle is tightened. If there are any bands, these are divided. The complete neck lift adds incisions behind the ear. The skin is then elevated and tightened. Excess skin is removed. The procedure is relatively painless. A neck garment is worn for the next few days to maintain good contour of the neckline.
