Am I a candidate for a Neck Lift?

If you are in good general health and safe to undergo surgery and are tired of looking older than you feel due to an unsightly neck, you are likely a candidate for Dr. Sadrian's La Jolla neck lift surgery. Dr. Sadrian is known for his exceptional surgical techniques, meticulous attention to detail, and natural-looking results. Once you have healed from your procedure, you will be thrilled to see your neck looking fresh, youthful, and defined, free from excess skin and tissue.

What Is the Best Age for a Neck Lift?

There’s no one-size-fits-all age for a neck lift. Most patients who pursue this procedure are between their 40s and 60s—an age range when skin laxity, muscle banding, and excess fat beneath the chin become more noticeable. However, the ideal timing has less to do with a number and more to do with your anatomy, genetics, and how aging shows up on your neck.

If you’ve started to notice loose, crepey skin under the chin, deep horizontal neck lines, or a loss of jawline definition that fillers or skincare can't fix, you may be a candidate, regardless of your age. The best results are often seen in patients whose skin still retains some elasticity and who are in good overall health.

A consultation with Dr. Sadrian can help determine whether a neck lift is appropriate now or if a less invasive option might meet your goals in the short term.

Neck Lift Recovery and Aftercare

Proper aftercare is essential to heal smoothly and protect your results. Most patients feel ready to resume light daily activities within 7–10 days, though full recovery will take longer.

Key aftercare instructions include:

• Keep your head elevated, including while sleeping, for the first 1–2 weeks
• Avoid turning your head suddenly; use your entire upper body to rotate
• Do not lift heavy objects or engage in vigorous activity for at least 3 weeks
• Apply cold compresses as directed to minimize swelling
• Keep incisions clean and dry, and use any prescribed ointments as instructed
• Avoid direct sun exposure and always use a high-SPF sunscreen once healed

Dr. Sadrian’s team will guide you through every step of the neck lift healing process, providing tailored support and follow-up care to ensure optimal recovery.
