Refine Your Appearance Below Your Chin and Jawline in Linwood and Haddonfield, New Jersey

Say goodbye to sagging skin and get a tighter, more youthful silhouette with a neck lift at New Jersey’s Sood Center. Our dedicated team, led by Dr. Mohit Sood, employs the latest surgical techniques to lift and tighten skin, restoring youthful neck contours and enhancing your overall appearance.

What Is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift—or lower rhytidectomy—is a surgical procedure designed to reduce signs of aging in the neck, jawline, and lower third of the face. It addresses such cosmetic issues as loose neck skin, jowls, or excess fat and can significantly improve your profile and overall appearance.

What Can a Neck Lift Treat?

A neck lift is a versatile procedure, but is not often performed on its own. Patients who have lax skin on the neck tend to have the same problem on the lower and mid-face, which means the surgery is most commonly combined with a facelift. That said, there are many specific features a lower rhytidectomy can address:

Jowls

Jowls typically refer to the drooping skin that hangs below your chin or jawline. Over time, a decrease in skin elasticity and a shift in facial fat contribute to the formation of jowls, affecting the structured look of the neck and lower face. A neck lift helps address these by tightening loose skin and redefining the jawline.

Turkey Neck

This term refers to the appearance of loose, sagging skin below the chin and on the neck—somewhat resembling a turkey’s wattle. A neck lift can correct this by removing excess skin and tightening the underlying neck muscles.

Double Chin

A double chin is an isolated pocket of large fat cells that develops beneath the chin. This can happen because of weight gain, genetics, age, and other factors. Removing the fat via liposuction—or even nonsurgical strategies like CoolSculpting^® or injectable Kybella^®—often solves the cosmetic problem. If the double chin is primarily due to sagging skin or muscle laxity, a neck lift can significantly improve the neck contours.

Wrinkles and Lines

Neck lift surgery can also alleviate the appearance of age-related wrinkles and lines in the neck area and lower third of the face by removing excess skin and making tissues tighter so that folds don’t show.

Muscle Banding

When the muscles in your neck begin to weaken and sag with age, visible bands can form—especially if fat diminishes and skin thins as well. A neck lift can address these bands by tightening the platysma muscle, giving the neck a smoother appearance.

How Much Does a Neck Lift Cost?

Neck lift pricing depends on several factors, including the extent of treatment and individual patient goals. During your consultation, we’ll provide you with a detailed cost analysis based on your personalized treatment plan.

What Is the Sood Center Neck Lift Experience?

Sood Center provides a unique neck lift experience aimed at restoring youthfulness and redefining your neck contours in a reassuring and comforting environment.

Starting with a comprehensive initial consultation, our team seeks to understand your concerns and desired outcomes. We also interpret your medical history, leading to a detailed evaluation of your skin type, elasticity, and neck condition.

This evaluation guides us to the most suitable approach for your treatment, whether that’s a traditional neck lift, a limited incision neck lift, or neck liposuction. Dr. Sood, a renowned plastic and reconstructive surgeon, takes the lead in developing a bespoke surgical plan considering your unique factors.

For the procedure itself, Dr. Sood skillfully executes the neck lift by strategically placing incisions, then removing or rearranging excess skin and fat for a smoother, leaner, and more youthful appearance. For some patients, the platysma muscle is tightened for enhanced contours, always ensuring a natural and balanced look.

Post-procedure, we offer meticulous aftercare instructions and carry out regular follow-up visits to ensure a smooth recovery. There is very little pain during recovery, and most patients are surprised at how good they feel even a week out.

What Happens After a Neck Lift?

Following your neck lift, you’ll likely experience some swelling and discomfort, easily managed with prescribed medication. You are given a garment to help with recovery. A full recovery time of several weeks is generally expected, with recommendations for downtime and care provided by our team to enhance your healing process.
