How Do They Do a Neck Lift?
Improvement in your neck and chin can be accomplished in several different ways. Options include:
- Surgical neck lift
- Liposuction
- Ultherapy®
In most instances, Dr. Jarmuz will combine methods to give her patients optimal results. In addition, neck lift procedures are often combined with facelift surgery for rejuvenation of the mid to lower face.
Where Are the Incisions for a Neck Lift?
A neck lift, technically called submentoplasty, involves an incision hidden approximately one inch beneath the chin. With this incision, loose skin and neck muscles are tightened, excess tissue and fat are removed, and a 90-degree angle is restored.

Will Ultherapy Work on the Neck?
Patients with mild to moderate skin laxity who want a nonsurgical alternative to a neck lift might consider skin tightening with Ultherapy. It uses ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production in the skin for increased firmness over several weeks after treatment.
Can a Neck Lift Be Combined With Other Procedures?
If sagging skin is not exclusive to your chin and neck, another facial surgery procedure such as a facelift, brow lift, or eyelid surgery can be combined with your neck lift. Dr. Jarmuz performs neck lifts with almost all of her face lift surgeries.
