Neck Lift Info

When do you need a Neck Lift ?

A neck lift is a cosmetic surgical procedure that aims to improve the appearance of the neck by addressing issues such as sagging skin, excess fat deposits, and muscle laxity.


This can be caused by aging, genetics, weight loss, or other factors affecting skin elasticity.


It can be performed for various reasons, and the decision to undergo a neck lift is ultimately based on individual concerns and aesthetic goals. Here are some common reasons why someone may consider a neck lift:


  • Sagging or loose skin: As we age, the skin loses elasticity, leading to sagging in the neck area. A neck lift can tighten and remove excess skin, creating a more youthful and defined neck contour.
  • Excess fat deposits: Some individuals may have localized fat deposits in the neck area, often referred to as a “double chin” or “turkey neck.” A neck lift can involve liposuction to remove these fat deposits and improve the overall neck profile.
  • Muscle banding: The neck muscles, called platysma muscles, can become lax and develop visible banding. This can contribute to an aged or tired appearance. During a neck lift, the muscles can be tightened or repositioned to create a smoother, more toned neck appearance.
  • Overall facial rejuvenation: A neck lift is often combined with other facial procedures like a facelift or brow lift to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Combining procedures can provide a more harmonious and balanced outcome.

Prices

How much does a neck lift cost?

The cost of a neck lift can vary widely depending on several factors.

It is essential to consult with our qualified plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and assess your unique situation before receiving an accurate cost estimate. During the consultation, the surgeon will evaluate your needs, examine your neck and facial anatomy, and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan.

Generally, a neck lift can range from several thousand euros to tens of thousands. This price typically includes the surgeon’s fees, anesthesia fees, facility fees, pre-operative and post-operative care, and any necessary follow-up appointments.

Frequently Asked Questions about Neck Lift

This procedure is performed under local anesthetic. The surgeon makes an incision in the shape of a Z under your chin and removes the excess skin. This treatment only affects the neck and leaves a visible scar. You may get the best result by combining this treatment with liposuction. Our surgeon may also advise a different procedure or a combination of procedures because the muscles have also slackened. Ask our experienced expert during a free consultation about the possibilities available to achieve your wish.

This procedure is usually performed under general anesthesia. The surgeon makes an incision behind the ears, sometimes up to the hairline. Then he carefully loosens the skin and shortens the flaccid muscles. The skin is then tightened and stitched. Sometimes a further Z-plasty is necessary to remove excess fat and skin and restructure the local muscles again.

You will see results as soon as the bandage comes off. After 1 – 1.5 months, the result is even more visible. The scars are at the ear, under the chin or in the hairline. The plastic surgeon always performs the procedure to make the scars as inconspicuous as possible. The result depends on the chosen procedure and the health of the patient. The effects of the neck lift remain visible for about 10-15 years.

You don’t usually feel much pain after a neck lift. You will wear a support bandage immediately after the procedure to prevent swelling and speed up healing. You wear this bandage at least 1 week after the neck lift. There is a risk of swelling and bruising around the treated area. You will usually already know the result a few weeks after the neck lift. However, the final result of the neck lift, as in almost all plastic procedures, can only be fully assessed after one year.

Extremely satisfied

The treatment is always extremely professional, careful, and as much painless as possible; the doctors and team are extremely friendly, helpful, and conscientious. And all this in a beautiful and well-maintained building, as of recently on Statenlaan in Scheveningen! From the other clients I speak to – I always chat with everyone – I hear the same satisfied feedback! A big ten, I would say!

Very satisfied

A very good clinic and professional. The feel and look of the clinic are very special, and the same way they treat the patients. They were there for me whenever I needed them, and I felt like they were just one step away from me. I appreciated this for such a big time.

Very satisfied

I felt safe at Essential Aesthetics, which is exactly what I was looking for. I am incredibly satisfied with the results of my BodyTite treatment—better than I expected. The recovery was much easier than I had anticipated, especially compared to a tummy tuck, for which I initially had a consultation scheduled at Essential Aesthetics. With BodyTite, subcutaneous fat is removed through melting while simultaneously tightening the skin. Thanks to this choice, I now have a flat stomach *without* any visible scars. In short: I recommend this clinic 100%. If you are still in doubt, this is your sign to book a consultation ♥️

Very satisfied

I have been coming to Essential Aesthetics for years and am very satisfied with both the way the owner and team treat me and the treatments. I myself have had my eyelids lifted, had a muscle relaxants treatment and am currently undergoing treatment for hair loss and laser therapy for collagen stimulation. The team is knowledgeable, attentive, and truly dedicated to providing the best care possible. If you’re looking for high-quality aesthetic treatments in a welcoming and expert environment, I wholeheartedly recommend Essential Aesthetics!

Your journey at Essential Aesthetics

The Z-neck lift is a modern and innovative approach that targets sagging skin, excess fat, and muscle laxity in the neck area. It involves making discreet incisions behind the ears and under the chin, allowing minimal scarring. By utilizing advanced surgical techniques, we can tighten the underlying muscles, remove excess fat deposits, and reposition and trim the skin to achieve a more youthful and defined neck contour.
The Classic neck lift treatment addresses similar concerns but follows a more traditional approach. During this procedure, incisions are made around the ears and under the chin, allowing access to the underlying structures of the neck. Through these incisions, we can tighten the platysma muscles, remove excess fat, and re-drape and trim the skin to create a rejuvenated appearance.
