01

What is a Necklift?

A necklift is a surgical procedure designed to tighten sagging skin, remove excess fat and redefine the contours of the neck and jawline. It is commonly chosen by patients who feel that their neck appears older than their face, or who struggle with visible jowls, deep creases or muscle banding beneath the chin. At Eden Clinic, necklift surgery is carried out under local anaesthetic, making the experience more comfortable and allowing you to return home the same day. The aim is to restore smoother, firmer definition while preserving your natural features.

For some patients, the best results are achieved by combining a facelift with a necklift in a single procedure. This allows for full rejuvenation of the lower face, jawline and neck with one recovery period. A combined approach may be discussed during your consultation if you are seeking more comprehensive facial contouring.

02

Who is a Necklift Suitable For?

Necklift surgery is suitable for adults who are bothered by the appearance of loose skin, excess fat or muscle laxity in the neck area. Many patients are in their forties or older and want to address age-related changes, but younger individuals who have lost a significant amount of weight may also benefit. If you have noticed a softening jawline, persistent double chin or a loss of definition that affects your overall profile, a necklift may be the right solution. During your consultation, our team will assess your goals and determine whether this treatment aligns with your expectations.

Benefits of a Necklift Surgery

The neck is one of the first areas to show visible signs of ageing, and a necklift can deliver striking improvements that still feel completely natural. The procedure enhances the jawline, smooths out sagging skin and restores youthful tension to the lower face without the need for general anaesthetic. Because the changes are both subtle and significant, patients often report a major boost in confidence following the procedure. The result is not only a firmer neck but also a refreshed, lifted appearance that can positively impact your overall facial balance.

04

Recovery Timeline

Recovery after a necklift is generally smooth, especially when performed under local anaesthetic. You may experience mild swelling, bruising or tightness for the first few days, but most patients return to normal activities within 7 to 10 days. A supportive compression garment may be worn during the initial phase to help with healing and reduce swelling. Stitches are typically removed within a week, and while minor residual swelling may take longer to fully resolve, the final result becomes increasingly visible over the following weeks.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

The results of a necklift can last 7 to 10 years or longer, depending on factors like skin quality, ageing and lifestyle. While it does not stop the ageing process, the improvements are long-lasting and can be maintained with good skincare and healthy habits.

Incisions are made in discreet areas such as behind the ears or under the chin. With proper healing, the scars are minimal and fade significantly over time.

Most patients feel ready to return to work and social activities after 7 to 10 days, especially if bruising has resolved. If your work involves physical activity, a slightly longer break may be recommended.

No. A facelift typically addresses sagging in the mid and lower face, while a necklift focuses on the area beneath the chin and jawline. They can be performed together or separately depending on your needs.

Initial improvements are noticeable within the first week, but final results become more defined as swelling settles over the following 4 to 6 weeks.
