A facelift and a neck lift are both cosmetic procedures aimed at reducing signs of aging, but they target different areas and have distinct techniques:
Facelift
- Focus Area: Primarily targets the mid to lower face, including the cheeks, jawline, and sometimes the upper neck.
- Procedure: Involves lifting and tightening the skin and underlying tissues. Incisions are usually made around the ears and hairline.
- Goals: Reduces sagging skin, wrinkles, and deep creases around the nose and mouth, and improves the overall contour of the face12.
Neck Lift
- Focus Area: Specifically targets the neck and the area under the chin.
- Procedure: Involves removing excess skin and tightening the underlying muscles. Incisions are typically made behind the ears and sometimes under the chin.
- Goals: Addresses issues like “turkey neck,” jowls, and excess fat or skin in the neck area13.
Combination
- Often, these procedures are combined to achieve a more comprehensive rejuvenation of the face and neck2.
