Necklift
A necklift, or lower rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the neck by removing excess skin and fat, tightening underlying muscles, and improving the contour of the jawline. This procedure is particularly effective for individuals who have loose, sagging skin, muscle banding, or fat deposits in the neck area that contribute to an aged or heavy appearance.

Recovery from a necklift generally involves some swelling and bruising, with most patients resuming normal activities within two weeks.
