Neck Lift Surgery

NECK LIFT

Improves vertical neck lines caused by aging and sagging.

The causes of neck wrinkles vary from person to person.

Some have horizontal lines that deepen with age, while others develop vertical lines over time.

The most suitable type of neck lift also differs depending on age and condition.

More satisfying results can be achieved when combined with a facelift.

Understanding the cause is essential for wrinkle improvement

Vertical Wrinkles

Unlike horizontal lines, vertical neck wrinkles occur as the skin and underlying muscles lose elasticity with age. If muscle laxity is present, it should be corrected together, often with platysma tightening.

These concerns are difficult to improve with Botox or fillers alone.

Submental Sagging

Sagging under the chin, which may resemble a double chin, 

occurs when both the skin and muscles lose elasticity and fat accumulates.

From the front, this appears as loose skin under the chin, and it is not easily improved 
with liposuction or fat-dissolving injections alone.

General Neck Sagging

General neck sagging caused by skin laxity often creates 

both horizontal and vertical lines.

When caused by skin laxity, improvement is achieved through a face and neck lift 

depending on the degree of sagging, and in cases of more severe muscle 

and skin laxity, platysma tightening can be combined to better define the jawline.

Neck lift procedure

2-1. Face and neck lift procedure

To improve neck wrinkles caused by aging along with a facelift, incisions and dissection are performed from behind the ear to the posterior hairline, correcting sagging skin and underlying tissues together.

2-2. Double chin muscle tightening procedure

Through a small incision under the chin, unnecessary fat is removed  and the lax platysma muscle is tightened.

This procedure reduces excess fullness under the chin and brings separated neck muscles together,  creating a more defined jawline.

Recovery expertise, why PLANET recovery is faster

Most facelifts involve dissection through the mid-subcutaneous layer to reduce surgery time.

In such cases, blood vessels in the subcutaneous layer may be damaged, and if the dissection is too close to the skin, it can cause unevenness or skin damage.

Director Shin Dong-woo at PLANET performs precise and even dissection just above the SMAS layer, with immediate hemostasis when bleeding occurs, allowing for faster recovery.

Concerns about scars, PLANET is with you

Director Shin Dong-woo preserves the natural ear shape by carefully considering skin tension.

Reducing skin tension is essential to minimizing visible scars.

An incision is made behind the tragal cartilage, leaving only the minimum amount of skin necessary without restricting movement, followed by skin excision to maintain the original ear shape.

Director Shin Dong-woo combines the strong and long-lasting effects of the deep plane technique with the precise control of the dual plane approach, providing customized and natural-looking facelift results tailored to each patient’s condition.
