How long does a Neck Lift Last?

Some people who are thinking of getting a neck lift procedure think that  the results might not last longer than they hope it would. This myth should be settled. Just like any other cosmetic surgery, a neck lift can last long with a proper understanding of how to care for it after the treatment.

A cosmetic surgery neck lift includes eliminating excess skin in the neck and tightening the muscles around the area to give a smoother jawline and leaner appearance. Yet the question is: how long will it last?

The results of the surgery can last from 10 to 15 years with proper care. If you are considering a neck lift surgery, these benefits might help you decide to undergo the treatment:

1.   Smoothening of the skin around the neck. As we age, creases along the neck area start to appear. With a neck lift surgery, your neck will tighten and get smoother in texture.

2.   Reduces the appearance of a double chin. The excess fat on the chin going towards the neck area will be eliminated once a proper neck lift is done. A leaner and longer-looking neck will be visible after the procedure.

3.  Removes the fat bulges on the neck. Aside from fat on the chin area, fat bulges can also be seen. With a neck lift, sagging neck skin can be eliminated, achieving firmer skin.

For a neck lift to stay longer, here are ways to prolong the effects of your cosmetic surgery neck lift:

• Don’t smoke.
• Exercise and maintain a balanced lifestyle.
• Avoid too much sun exposure.
• Apply Proper Skin Care.
• Listen to Your Doctor’s Advice.
