Medically reviewed for accuracy.

Over the course of time, our skin can lose its elasticity from the combined effects of aging, lifestyle, and gravity. Our face and neck are particularly vulnerable to these effects. In time, loose, saggy skin will gather give your facial profile a saggy and appealing look. Trying to hide these early signs of aging becomes more and more difficult as time progresses.

Unfortunately, our age most often shows on our faces and necks because these are the areas of the body that are constantly exposed to the sun and the external environment as well as internal stress. Creases and folds can seriously detract from our appearance, a problem that has caused many to feel insecure about the way they look.

Usually, people who are 40 years and older, often find that most of the cosmetic treatments for wrinkled skin don’t work very well. The most effective treatments to reverse the visible signs of aging is the combined facelift and neck lift surgery. A facelift, often combined with a neck lift, can dramatically smooth the skin on the cheeks, along with the jawline, and on the upper half of the neck.

How Does A Facelift And A Neck Lift Work Together?

A neck lift and a facelift can complement each other well because they focus on areas of the face that are closely connected. The neck lift focuses on the lower part of the face, the jawline and down to the base of your neck. A facelift deals with the lower region of your face and the region from your jawline to just below your eyelids.

When these two areas are treated simultaneously, they can greatly affect the way you look. It’s a great solution when you have areas from the lower neck to mid-region of your face that you want to improve.

Combining both of these procedures creates smoother and tighter skin from your neck to your mid-face. The changes you’ll experience from having both done at once will be far more dramatic than what you’ll experience from one alone.

By combining the surgeries, most patients save money and spend less time recovering from the surgeries if they were performed separately. A combined surgery will allow your surgeon to make comprehensive aesthetic changes to your lower face, chin, and neck areas.

How Can The Combination Of A Neck Lift And A Facelift Benefit You?

Combining both surgical procedures drastically improves your outward appearance in many ways. It is helpful in removing excess saggy skin under the eyes, around the mouth, and cheeks. It can help restore a prominent jawline by tightening the skin between the face and neck. It is effective in eliminating excess fat in the lower face, chin, and neck. They can also smooth out prominent wrinkles and fine lines in the treatment area.

Results Of A Neck Lift And Facelift Procedure

After a patient has fully healed from the surgery, their facial skin will appear smoother and their jawline will be much more prominent. This procedure has been known to take years off someone’s age and boost their confidence significantly.

I’ve been seeing Carol for Botox for over two years, and she is absolutely amazing! I trust her completely with my face. She always takes the time to listen to what I want and makes sure my results look natural and beautiful—she never overdoes it. I especially appreciate how honest she is; she will tell you when you don’t need something rather than trying to sell you more treatments. Carol truly cares about her patients and always makes me feel comfortable, welcomed, and at home. She is professional, knowledgeable, gentle, and incredibly attentive. I always leave feeling confident and happy with my results. It’s hard to find someone you can trust this much, and I’m so grateful I found Carol. I wouldn’t trust

I had Lipo 360 and a Skinny BBL this summer, and I am so happy with my results. I was always extremely nervous about going under the knife, but I really wanted to do something that would help boost my self-confidence. Dr. T and his entire team were truly amazing throughout the whole process. I am naturally pretty skinny, so I was always worried about whether this procedure would work well for my body type, but I honestly wish I had done it sooner. I am currently about five weeks post-op, and I am already so pleased with how everything is turning out. My results continue to improve as I heal, and I’m excited to see the final outcome. I’m very grateful to Dr. T and his team for making me feel comfortable and confident throughout the experience.

Nurse Carol always does an outstanding job no matter the procedure. She literally has light hands and you barely feel a thing. She brightens my day whenever I have an appointment with her. Very kind, professional and very knowledgeable. I have never had anyone as thorough as her. She communicates with me before and after all appointments and reaches out to ensure I safely drive there sooner due to the weather conditions. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot say enough wonderful things about Nurse Carol Donohue. After four years as her client, I can genuinely say that the trust, care, and relationship we have built over the years means so much to me. Carol has always been incredibly easy to communicate with and accommodating with my schedule. She consistently goes above and beyond for her clients—even coming in early before her shift to make sure she can see me when needed. That level of dedication and care does not go unnoticed. What I appreciate most about Carol is her integrity. She doesn’t simply recommend a cosmetic procedure because she can perform it. She takes the time to honestly tell me what would be beneficial, what may be unnecessary, and what she believes is best for me. My health, well-being, and safety have always come first, and that has given me an incredible amount of confidence and trust in her. Carol is knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. She explains everything in detail, makes sure I understand every step of the process, and always makes me feel comfortable and cared for. She values her clients as people, not just appointments. Beyond her professionalism, Carol’s kindness has touched me personally. There have been days when I walked into her office feeling at my lowest, and simply being met with her warmth, compassion, and kindness helped me leave feeling a little more confident and a lot better than when I arrived. That is something I will never forget. Thank you, Nurse Carol Donohue, for four wonderful years of professionalism, honesty, compassion, and exceptional care. I am incredibly grateful for the client-and-nurse relationship we have built, and I look forward to many more years to come. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a provider who combines expertise with integrity and truly cares about the people she serves.
