Neck Lift Excellence by Board-Certified Experts in Hollywood, FL
Your Premier Plastic & Cosmetic Surgeons
A sagging or poorly defined neck can subtly alter the balance of your facial profile and contribute to an aged or tired appearance. Often influenced by genetics, weight fluctuations, or the natural aging process, changes in the neck area can be difficult to address through skincare or exercise alone.
At Plastic Surgery Specialists of South Florida in Hollywood, FL, we offer customized neck lift procedures designed to restore definition, smooth contour, and youthful balance to the lower face and neckline. Whether you’re seeking to tighten loose skin, reduce excess fat, or improve muscle laxity, our board-certified surgeons approach each procedure with precision and artistry. Every neck lift is tailored to your facial structure and personal goals—enhancing your natural features and helping you feel confident in your profile once again.
A neck lift is a refined cosmetic procedure designed to smooth and tighten the neck area by removing excess skin, reducing localized fat, and addressing muscle laxity. Often sought by individuals experiencing sagging skin, jowls, or a “turkey neck” appearance, this procedure restores youthful definition to the jawline and neck. Suitable for both men and women, a neck lift enhances overall facial harmony by creating a firmer, more contoured lower face and neckline. With results that are subtle yet transformative, it’s a highly personalized surgery that brings renewed confidence and elegance to your profile.
Here are four key benefits of a neck lift:
During your neck lift, excess skin is removed, underlying muscles are tightened, and fat may be sculpted or repositioned to create a smoother, firmer neckline. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, and incisions are discreetly placed behind the ears or under the chin. You can expect a personalized, detail-oriented approach designed to enhance your natural contours and restore a youthful profile.
A neck lift enhances the angle and contour of the jawline by removing sagging skin and tightening underlying muscles. This creates a more sculpted profile, especially beneficial for those experiencing jowls or loss of jawline definition due to aging or weight changes.
One of the most noticeable signs of aging is loose, drooping skin beneath the chin and along the neck. A neck lift directly addresses this issue by removing excess skin, smoothing the area, and restoring firmness for a youthful, elegant neckline.
By addressing imbalance in the lower face and neck, a neck lift brings the entire face into better proportion. This subtle shift can enhance overall appearance without changing your natural features, helping the neck complement rather than distract from your face.
Thanks to advanced techniques and a tailored approach, the results of a neck lift are both enduring and discreet. Most patients enjoy noticeable rejuvenation that lasts for years—without appearing “overdone”—restoring confidence in a natural, graceful way.
Most patients can expect to take about 10 to 14 days off from work and social activities. During this time, swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort are normal. Keeping your head elevated and following post-op care instructions will help speed healing.
A supportive compression garment may be recommended to reduce swelling and help the tissues conform to their new contours. Wearing this as directed is important for optimal results and comfort during the recovery phase.
Light activities and walking can resume within a few days, but more strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for 3–4 weeks. Most patients feel progressively better within the first two weeks and can resume normal routines soon after.
Post-surgical appointments will be scheduled to monitor healing and ensure the best possible outcome. While the full results become visible as swelling subsides, maintaining a healthy lifestyle will help preserve your refined neck and jawline for years to come.

I am 5 days after my Lipo section procedure and I see results already!!!! I have seen few doctors before Dr. Barnavon all by recommendations. I have decided to go with Dr. Barnavon because his office is clean and new, the staff are so nice and welcoming. He explained from the beginning what we can do and what the results will look like by not necessarily promising me something that won't happen. The nurses are very professional and explained everything in regard of the surgery and what to expect after, also followed up with me the next day. I am so happy already and excited even more to see the results in the near future.
Results from a neck lift are long-lasting, often maintaining their improved contour for 10 years or more. While the natural aging process continues, patients typically enjoy a more youthful neckline and jawline for years following the procedure.
No. While neck lifts are popular among individuals in their 40s to 70s, younger patients with significant weight loss or early signs of neck aging may also benefit. The procedure is tailored to each patient’s anatomy and concerns, not just age.
Incisions for a neck lift are carefully placed in discreet areas—typically behind the ears and under the chin—to minimize visibility. With proper healing and post-operative care, scars fade significantly over time and are often barely noticeable.
Yes. A neck lift is frequently combined with treatments like a facelift, chin augmentation, or liposuction for more comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Your surgeon will help determine the best approach to achieve balanced, natural results based on your goals.
