What You Must Know About Neck Lift Surgery

Neck lift surgery is a procedure that can alter the appearance of the neck and lower face. It may be performed alone or combined with other facial procedures. 

It’s essential for individuals to carefully consider the procedure, understand both its potential changes and limitations, and consult a  qualified healthcare professional.

Invasiveness, Recovery, Cost, And Longevity

• Invasive: Like any other cosmetic surgery, a neck lift surgery is a surgical procedure that requires incisions and general anaesthesia, which can come with risks and side effects such as bleeding, infection, and anaesthesia complications.
  
• Recovery: Recovery time can vary depending on the individual, but patients can expect to experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the first few weeks following the surgery. This can be challenging for people who require going out or those who cannot take time off their usual activities.
  
• Costly: Neck lift surgery is not typically covered by insurance and can be costly, with prices ranging from  $20,000 to $30,000 in surgical fees. That’s why it’s important to choose a reliable surgeon that can produce great results to get your money’s worth.
  
• Not a permanent solution: Like any cosmetic procedure, it cannot stop the natural ageing process. The skin will eventually lose elasticity, and wrinkles will reappear.
