As you age, the effects of gravity, exposure to the sun and stresses of daily life can begin to be seen in your face and neck. Wrinkles appear around the eyes and mouth, creases form between the nose and the mouth, the jawline sags and neck skin lax.

In some individuals, marked signs of ageing occur predominantly in the neck, while facial features appear less aged.

Necklift is a cosmetic Surgical procedure designed to improve the most visible signs of ageing by removing excess fat, tightening underlying neck muscles and redraping the skin of your neck. It may involve a small degree of liposuction to reduce heaviness underneath the chin.

Signs of ageing can begin at an early age or in some people these signs develop much later. The timing of your necklift is therefore variable but most procedures are performed at about the age of 42 - 47.

The best candidates for necklift are men or women whose neck has begun to show visible signs of ageing, but whose skin still has good elasticity and whose facial skin and bone structure is well defined. Most people opt for this Surgery from age 40 - 60, however it can be performed successfully on people in their 70’s or 80’s as well.

Necklift is a specific procedure designed to reduce the effects of ageing in the neck region. It can have a dramatic effect on your appearance and improve your self-confidence and esteem. It is not used to treat facial ageing, but rather to treat those individuals who may age prematurely in the neck region. Following necklift, these individuals will have a more balanced look to their face with a better profile.
