Neck Sagging

Neck sagging is primarily caused by aging, loss of collagen, sun damage, genetics, and weight fluctuations. Poor posture, often called “tech neck,” can also contribute to early skin laxity.

The best treatment depends on the severity of sagging:

• Mild sagging: Non-surgical treatments like laser therapy, dermal fillers, or ultrasound skin tightening.
• Moderate to severe sagging: Neck lift surgery is the most effective long-term solution to remove excess skin and tighten the neckline.

Neck sagging refers to the drooping of skin around the neck due to aging, loss of collagen, weakened muscles, weight fluctuations, sun exposure, and genetics. Over time, the skin loses elasticity, leading to wrinkles and loose skin.

While aging is inevitable, you can slow down neck sagging by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, using sunscreen daily, staying hydrated, and following a good skincare routine with collagen-boosting ingredients. Avoiding smoking and excessive sun exposure also helps.

The right treatment depends on the severity of sagging:

• Mild sagging: Non-surgical treatments like laser therapy, radiofrequency skin tightening, ultrasound therapy, and dermal fillers.
• Moderate sagging: Combination of skin tightening treatments and thread lifts.
• Severe sagging: Neck lift surgery is the most effective solution for long-lasting, dramatic improvements.

A neck lift is a cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess skin, tightens neck muscles, and redefines the jawline. It provides a youthful, firmer neck contour and can be combined with a facelift for enhanced results.

You may be a good candidate if you:

• Have loose, sagging skin on the neck.
• Experience the appearance of neck bands or wrinkles.
• Want to achieve a more defined jawline.
• Are in good overall health and have realistic expectations.

The procedure typically takes 2 to 3 hours, depending on the complexity and whether additional procedures like a facelift or liposuction are performed.

Most patients need 1 to 2 weeks for initial recovery. Swelling and bruising subside within a few weeks, and final results become visible in 3 to 6 months. Following post-surgical care guidelines ensures a smooth recovery.

The cost varies based on the surgeon’s expertise, clinic location, and the complexity of the procedure. It is best to consult Dr. Faisal Salim for a detailed assessment and customized treatment plan.
