The neck is one of the first areas to show visible signs of aging — from loose skin and muscle bands to the appearance of a “double chin.” These changes can make the face look older, even when the rest of your features remain youthful.
At Dr. Fadaei Clinic, our neck lift surgery offers a precise, effective solution to redefine the jawline, smooth sagging skin, and rejuvenate the entire lower face for a refined, natural look.
A neck lift (medically known as platysmaplasty or lower rhytidectomy) is a cosmetic procedure that tightens the underlying neck muscles and removes excess skin and fat.
The goal is to restore a firmer, smoother, and more youthful neck contour while maintaining a natural transition between the jawline and chest.
A neck lift can address:
• Sagging or loose neck skin (“turkey neck”)
• Vertical muscle bands (platysmal bands)
• Excess fat beneath the chin or along the jawline
• Loss of definition in the neck and lower face

Desire long-lasting, natural rejuvenation
This procedure is often performed alone or combined with a face lift for complete facial harmony.
At Dr. Fadaei Clinic, we customize the technique to match each patient’s needs:
1. Traditional Neck Lift – Involves small incisions around the ears and under the chin to remove excess skin and tighten muscles.
2. Mini Neck Lift – Ideal for mild to moderate sagging with faster recovery and smaller incisions.
3. Neck Liposuction – Targets and removes localized fat deposits for a more defined neck and jawline.
4. Combined Neck and Face Lift – Addresses both skin laxity and facial sagging for comprehensive rejuvenation.
Your surgeon will discuss the best approach during your consultation to ensure natural and balanced results.
Neck lift surgery is performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia for maximum comfort.
Step-by-step overview:
1. Incisions – Made discreetly around the ears and sometimes beneath the chin.
2. Muscle Tightening – The platysma (neck muscle) is tightened to smooth banding.
3. Skin Redraping – Excess skin is removed, and remaining tissue is gently repositioned.
4. Fat Sculpting – Liposuction may be used to refine contours under the chin or jawline.
5. Closure – Incisions are closed with fine sutures, leaving minimal visible scarring.
The entire procedure typically takes 2–3 hours, and most patients return home the same day.
Recovery from a neck lift is generally smooth when following your surgeon’s post-care instructions.
Aftercare tips:
• Keep your head elevated while resting
• Avoid twisting or bending your neck for the first week
• Use cold compresses to reduce swelling
• Avoid strenuous activity for 2–3 weeks
• Follow your follow-up schedule carefully
Most patients return to light work within 7–10 days, with final results visible after 4–6 weeks as swelling fully subsides.

I am very pleased with the results of my liposuction, BBL, and breast augmentation/lift surgery performed by Dr. Fedayee. I would like to sincerely thank him and his exceptional team.
I had a cheek, forehead and central lip lift surgery at the doctor’s office on March 8, 2024. I can say that after two weeks, his work was a masterpiece. Surgery with Dr. Fadaei was the greatest favor I did for myself. Strong support team. They were available at all times of the day and night. Overall, his ethics and behavior with the patient were the best and I am a thousand times satisfied.
I introduced a patient from England to him. He is very skilled and experienced in facial plastic surgery and my patient is very happy with the results.
Most results last 7–10 years, depending on skin quality and lifestyle.
Discomfort is minimal and easily managed with prescribed medication.
Incisions are hidden around natural creases and the hairline, making scars barely noticeable once healed.
Yes. Many patients combine it with a face lift, chin liposuction, or skin-tightening treatments for enhanced results.
