What is Botox?

Botox, or botulinum toxin, is an injectable treatment that is primarily targeted to treat wrinkles, fine lines and creases on the face. It can also be used as a non-permanent facial contouring treatment to slim down your profile. Botox is more widely known as an effective anti-aging product for improving the appearance of your skin. Botox is able to treat signs of advanced aging as it promotes collagen production and skin elasticity. In Singapore, Botox is used to temporarily give patients a younger and tighter look.

What is Neck Lift Surgery?

A neck lift surgery, or lower Rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure in Singapore that involves removing excess skin around the jawline. This creates a more defined and youthful-looking neck and improves visible signs of ageing.

A neck lift surgery is commonly done if a full facelift is not necessary or if an individual wants to improve just their neck and jaw area. In this case, a neck lift surgery is the best solution to preserve their youthfulness.

Although neck lift surgery is a long-lasting procedure used to improve signs of ageing, it does not stop the ageing process.

How does Neck Lift Surgery works in Singapore?

Neck lift surgery offers great yet subtle results. By lifting neck wrinkles and sagging skin, it takes years off a patient’s age without making it look like they had any procedure done.

During consultation, Dr Janna will evaluate your overall health and discuss expectations for the procedure.
Once a surgical method is decided, Dr Janna will examine and measure your face prior to making an appointment for the surgery.
During surgery, an incision is made behind each ear and under the chin.
If liposuction is required, specialised equipment will suction fat from the jawline and under their chin.
Once any fat has been suctioned, Dr Janna will proceed to reposition the tissues beneath the neck skin and tighten the neck muscles.
Depending on the desired results, excess skin may be trimmed away or redraped over uplifted contours of the chin and jawline.

Why get Neck Lift Surgery?

Neck lift surgery is a popular and standard cosmetic surgical procedure for anyone looking to:

Revamp their look
Take a few years off their appearance by addressing noticeable wrinkles and signs of ageing in their neck and chin area
Reduce signs of ageing by removing excess skin and fat in the neck and tightening up the area for a more youthful appearance

Patients who undergo neck lift surgery also report results of well-hidden or barely visible scars. This makes neck lift surgery a popular procedure to undergo as it creates natural-looking results.

What results can I expect from Neck Lift Surgery in Singapore?

A consultation with your doctor will ensure your concerns are addressed and your needs met during the procedure.

Results can vary between younger and older patients. No two neck lifts produce the same results; it is important for you to keep your expectations realistic in order to best benefit from the procedure. Each procedure is personalised to a patient, the condition of their skin and desired results.

Neck lift surgery offers long-lasting results but it is not a permanent solution for wrinkles or signs of ageing. The procedure can be repeated when necessary at the consultation and advice of your doctor.

Frequently Asked Questions

How painful is neck lift surgery?

After the procedure, a patient may experience tightness in the neck and mild discomfort. Depending on the patient, bruising may be mild or severe, but this will fade in a few weeks upon full recovery. Scars as a result of the procedure will be hidden beneath the chin or in the contours around the ears and will be barely visible.

How long does it take to recover from neck lift surgery?

Neck lift surgery is a simple and common procedure for patients looking to shave a few years off their appearance. In most cases, patients take approximately 2 to 4 weeks to recover. Most patients will return to normal activities after 7 days but more strenuous jobs and activities may require a full recovery period at home.

How do I know if I need neck lift surgery?

Depending on the patient’s concerns, neck lift surgery can be done if you have excess skin and fat in the lower part of your face or on your neck. Most patients opt for neck lift surgery once these signs of ageing start to be more obvious.
