Neck Lift Surgery in Los Angeles, CA

Rejuvenate Your Profile with a Neck Lift by Dr. Babak Moein

Loose, sagging skin around the neck can be one of the earliest and most noticeable signs of aging. If you’re looking to restore a more youthful and sculpted neckline, a neck lift (platysmaplasty) may be the ideal solution. At Moein Surgical Arts in Los Angeles, Dr. Babak Moein, a board-certified cosmetic surgeon, specializes in neck lift procedures to help patients achieve a smoother, firmer, and more youthful neck contour.

What Is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift, also known as a lower rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure that tightens the muscles, removes excess skin and fat, and refines the contours of the neck and jawline. This treatment is designed to address:

• Sagging or loose skin (“turkey neck”)
• Double chin or excess fat under the chin
• Vertical neck banding caused by aging muscles
• Loss of jawline definition

How a Neck Lift Works: The Procedure

During a neck lift, Dr. Moein makes discreet incisions behind the ears and under the chin, allowing him to:

• Remove excess skin and fat
• Tighten the platysma muscles
• Smooth and lift the contours of the neck and jawline

The procedure typically takes 2 to 3 hours and is performed under general anesthesia. It can be done as a standalone treatment or in combination with other procedures, such as a facelift or liposuction, for more comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Neck Lift?

You may be a candidate for neck lift surgery if you:

• Are in good overall health
• Have visible sagging, wrinkling, or a double chin
• Have realistic expectations for your surgical outcomes
• Are looking for longer-lasting results than non-surgical treatments can offer

A neck lift is not a weight-loss procedure and works best for patients whose skin has lost elasticity due to age, genetics, or environmental exposure.

Benefits of Neck Lift Surgery with Dr. Moein

Dr. Moein is a trusted name in Los Angeles cosmetic surgery, known for his attention to detail and natural-looking results. Patients who undergo neck lift surgery can expect:

A smoother, firmer neck profile
A more defined jawline and chin
Reduction of sagging skin and vertical neck bands
A younger, rejuvenated appearance

Every neck lift is tailored to your unique facial anatomy and aesthetic goals.

Recovery After Neck Lift Surgery

Recovery from neck lift surgery is generally smooth when patients follow proper aftercare instructions. Here’s what to expect:

• Mild to moderate swelling and bruising for the first week
• Discomfort managed with prescribed medication
• Initial recovery time: 10 to 14 days
• Avoid strenuous activity for 3–4 weeks
• Final results become visible as swelling subsides, typically over several weeks to months

Dr. Moein will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your healing and ensure optimal results.

Your Results: What to Expect Long-Term

While a neck lift won’t stop the aging process, it can significantly delay its visible effects. With proper skin care, sun protection, and a healthy lifestyle, your refreshed appearance can last for many years. Patients often report improved self-confidence and a more youthful profile.

Neck Lift vs. Non-Surgical Alternatives

If you’re not ready for surgery, Dr. Moein also offers non-surgical neck lift options using injectables, RF technology, and skin tightening treatments. During your consultation, he will help you determine whether a surgical or non-surgical approach is best for your goals.
