Your eyes and face are not the only areas that can lose their youthful, natural vitality.

With neck lift surgery, we can help create a thinner, more youthful neck line to help you regain your confidence.

What Can I Expect After Neck Lift Surgery?
Swelling and bruising are common after neck lift surgery; however this should subside in a few days. It is important to try and keep your head and neck still after surgery. You also may need to sleep with your head elevated for a week after treatment. Be sure to carefully follow all post-operative instructions Dr. Beam has provided for you.
How Much Does Neck Lift Surgery Cost?
The cost for neck lift surgery may depend on the techniques used by Dr. Beam for your procedure. Since this is a cosmetic treatment, insurance will not cover any costs. Dr. Beam and his staff can discuss all pricing and financing options with you at your initial consultation.
Neck Lift FAQs
How long does a neck lift last?
On average, our patients are still satisfied with the results of their neck lifts up to 15 years following their surgery. It’s important to note that receiving a neck lift will not prevent further signs of aging from appearing in the future. To maintain the results of your neck lift, we encourage our patients to lead a healthy lifestyle and consider using medical-grade skincare products.
How painful is a neck lift?
A neck lift is not a painful procedure. Following your neck lift, you may experience swelling, tenderness, and bruising around your treated areas. This is normal, and these side effects typically resolve on their own within a week or two. Dr. Beam and his expert medical team will provide you with post-operative care instructions to help make your recovery period as comfortable as possible.
At what age should you get a neck lift?
While there is no perfect age to get a neck lift, we most often see patients ages 45 to 60 interested in receiving the procedure. That being said, good candidates for a neck lift are 35 to 65 years old, in good general health, and have realistic expectations for their desired results. If you believe you’re a good candidate for a neck lift, we encourage you to come in for a private consultation with Dr. Beam.
What is a mini neck lift?
A mini neck lift is exactly what it sounds like – a less intensive version of a traditional neck lift. This surgical cosmetic procedure is often recommended for patients who have mild signs of aging or minimal excess skin around their neck. If you feel that a mini neck lift may be right for you, we encourage you to come in for a private consultation with Dr. Beam.
Can you get just a neck lift?
Yes, you can absolutely get a neck lift without receiving any other procedure. That being said, many patients find that the results of their neck lift can be further enhanced when combined with a facelift, liposuction under the chin, or other facial rejuvenation treatments.
