Neck Lift

A neck lift is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess skin and fat around the jaw line, creating a more defined and youthful-looking neck. Results can be long lasting.

Neck Lift in Tijuana

Neck lift surgery in Tijuana, Mexico can create a rejuvenated appearance for people who have extra fullness in the neck area. At Tijuana Facelift, Dr. Illich Navarro performs neck lift procedures for local residents, as well as for patients worldwide. Some men and women inherit the appearance of a double chin and poorly defined neckline. For others, the muscle and skin of the neck begin to sag and lose definition with passing time. Jowls droop as skin and muscles loosen, while fat deposits along the jawline and under the chin create fullness or a double chin. 

A neck lift at Mommy Makeover Tijuana is a cosmetic procedure that combines platysmaplasty to tighten the muscles in the neck and cervicoplasty to remove excess skin and fatty tissue, eliminates jowls and “turkey wattle,” and decreases the look of a “double chin” while sculpting the neck and improving jawline definition.

Neck Lift FAQ

A good neck lift removes excess fat in the neck (primarily from under the chin), removes excess skin (taken from behind the ears), and tightens the neck muscles (the platysma) both in the midline of the neck and laterally on the sides.

There is a short scar under the chin that is about 2-2.5 inches long that the surgeon uses to get to the central portion of the neck. The resulting scar is rarely visible. There are also scars starting around the earlobes, extending up the crease behind the ears and then turning ninety degrees backwards to either go into the scalp or down along the hairline, depending on how much skin is to be removed.

As previously mentioned, the short scar under the chin is rarely visible. Those that fall in the fold behind the ear are usually well hidden as are the ones that extend into the scalp. When a considerable amount of skin must be removed, and the scars are positioned down along the hair line, they will be visible in those with short hair or when one puts their hair up in a ponytail or bun.

Fat removal is an important part of most neck lifts. This can be done with liposuction or direct fat removal with a scissors. Most neck lift procedures include a combination of both.

Quick answers to questions you may have

Sagging jowls begin to appear around the age of 50 and are often associated with other signs of facial ageing, including wrinkles and loose skin. Jowls may occur earlier in those who smoke and spend excessive amounts of time in the sun.

A neck lift procedure is the best way to tighten loose neck skin and eliminate saggy jowls.

A neck lift is highly effective for getting rid of loose neck skin and achieving a tighter-looking neck.

A neck lift, also known as a lower rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure that improves the appearance of the neck by tightening loose skin and removing excess fat.

Here are some of the benefits of a neck lift:

  • Improved jawline: A neck lift can help to define and enhance the jawline, creating a more youthful and attractive appearance.
  • Tightened skin: The procedure tightens loose skin on the neck, which can help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and sagging.
  • Reduced “turkey wattle”: A neck lift can help to reduce or eliminate the appearance of a “turkey wattle”, which is a protrusion of skin and fat that can form on the neck as a result of ageing or weight gain.
  • Improved self-esteem: Many patients report feeling more self-confident and satisfied with their appearance after a neck lift.
  • Long-lasting results: The results of a neck lift are long-lasting, although the ageing process will continue, and the effects of the surgery may be lessened over time.
