The Neck Lift Procedure – What To Expect
At the Warner Institute, our necklift procedures are performed under local anesthesia – The SWIFT® Lift. This procedure can be performed under general anesthesia in our surgery center, depending on the patient's preference. The process begins with incisions strategically placed either behind your ears or under the chin, which are carefully concealed within the natural contours of your skin. These incisions allow us to access the underlying structures of your neck. We then remove excess fat, tighten or reposition neck muscles, and trim surplus skin. The precise techniques used will depend on your specific needs.
This surgery generally takes about two hours, but the duration may vary based on the extent of the procedure. While you may experience some discomfort during recovery, we aim to minimize any pain, and you'll receive proper post-operative care instructions to aid in a smooth and comfortable recovery. The simple science behind the neck lift lies in addressing the multiple factors contributing to neck aging, including fat deposits, muscle laxity, and skin elasticity, to achieve a more youthful and refined neck contour.
