Neck lift downtime

Steven Wallach, MD answers: Downtime and duration of Neck Lift surgery?

I do not mind some lines and wrinkles but I HATE the chicken neck look I have! I am 62 years old and trying to grow old with some grace, but this trully bothers me. How much downtime can I expect from Neck Lift surgery? How long does the procedure last? I appreciate you responding. Thank you.

A neck lift is great to improve loose skin and platysma banding in the neck. This is often combined with a facelift in patients that have jowling. The downtime is about 1-2 weeks.
