A neck lift (also known as a Lower Rhytidectomy) is a specialized surgical procedure designed to address and correct the visible signs of aging in the lower face and neck area. It specifically targets issues such as loose, sagging skin often referred to as "turkey neck," prominent vertical neck bands, and excess fat accumulation below the chin.

Can a neck lift be combined with other procedures?
The procedure itself typically takes about two to four hours to complete, depending on the extent of the work being done and whether it is combined with other procedures, such as a facelift.
Recovery time is generally two to four weeks. Initial swelling and bruising are common and will gradually subside. Most patients feel comfortable enough to return to work within 10 to 14 days, though strenuous activities should be avoided for a longer period.
Dr. Antony places incisions strategically behind the ears or under the chin to minimize visibility. With proper care, these scars will fade over time and become very discreet.
The results of a neck lift are long-lasting, with many patients enjoying their rejuvenated appearance for 10 to 15 years. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and protecting your skin from the sun will help extend the longevity of your results.
Yes. A neck lift is often combined with a facelift to create a more comprehensive and harmonious result across the entire face and neck. It can also be combined with non-surgical treatments to maintain and enhance your results.
