Neck lift – What it is

In individuals with mild neck skin laxity, the Nefertiti botox lift typically provides very satisfactory results.

However, if the neck presents significant laxity, Plastic Surgeon G. Chorti may proceed, in combination with the Nefertiti botox lift, with a small complementary incision under the chin to suture the sagging neck muscles and stabilize them in position. The results are very good and long-lasting.

Depending on the degree of laxity, two small incisions around the ears may also be included in order to detach the skin and suture the muscles together, preventing sagging (often due to weight loss). The excess skin from the chin or neck is then repositioned toward the ears. A neck lift does not alter the skin itself; it simply restores it to its pre-sagging state. If wrinkles or pigmentation spots are present, they cannot be corrected with lifting alone.

However, when the neck shows significant laxity with folds, it can be effectively treated through combined techniques. This is where the expertise, skill, and experience of the plastic surgeon play a crucial role. The neck is not treated with a single procedure, but with advanced combined treatments to achieve a proper, comprehensive, and long-lasting result.
