Neck Lift: Q&A

Deep Neck Lines and Folds
I have these really deep lines that go in a circle around my neck. They are hereditary. My father has them and his father had them. I am trying to reduce their number or get rid of them all. Whenever I talk to people this is what they stare at first. I have tried using a product called rejuveneck but I am seeing no results. As I age the folds get deeper. I have tried exercise and everything but they just won't disappear. Please help.

Horizontal neck folds
The lines that are present in your neck are simply congenital horizontal neck folds that everyone has. Yours are just more prominent. They will not go away with a facelift. They cannot be surgically excised and removed. It is best to just leave them alone and no facial creams are going to help with this problem either.

Deep Neck Folds
You appear to have a rather unusual problem; the lines are very deep. There are several options you could try from fat injections, fillers, liposuction or even a neck lift but without a thorough exam it is difficult to determine the best option. At my practice, Cape Fear Aesthetics, we always recommend a patient comes in for a thorough consultation, which at my cosmetic practice, are always complimentary. “Dr. D”

Treatment of horizontal neck lines
Fillers may benefit you but you would want to consider a semi permanent filler or fat injections, but you would be best off having a necklift and liposuction to your neck first to reduce the depth of the folds as much as possible. Hyaluronic acids like Restylane will cost you a lot of money and would require treatment every 6 months at least.

Treatment of deep creases around the neck
This is not a common problem and these creases almost look like joint creases on the palm side of the fingers. Therefore the crease is likely a result of a combination of tissue under the skin and skin itself factors. That is to say these creases are missing some of the deep layers of the skin as well as some of the normally present fat under the skin and may have anomalous connections between the undersurface of the skin and the deeper tissues. All 3 need to be addressed in treating the...

Deep neck lines can be helped with surgery or fillers.
You can have fillers done to help, but the cost over time is quite a bit. A better choice would be liposuction with or without a neck lift. That would depend on how the tissue feels. You would still need some form of grafting for the residual lines which can be done at he same time.

Deep vertical neck wrinkles
This is a very unusual problem.
An examination would be very necessary. Perhaps a combination of a face and necklift with liposuction might help you, followed by grafting of fat into the depressed areas at a second stage.
Filler can be done on a temporary basis but will quite expensive to maintain.

Fillers help with deep neck creases
Juvederm or Restylane do well to fill in deep neck creases and usually require 2-3 sessions so as not to over do it and get lumpy. Cost is roughly $550 per syringe and expect to use 3-5 syringes.

Neck lines
The lines that you have in the neck will not goaway with a neck lift. These are something that you will have to live with.

Neck lift may help lines
Yours is an unusual problem because they are very deep and circular. What treatment would depend on what result you wish to achieve. If just temporary improvement, then a filler of some sort but you would need a lot and it would go away within months in most cases. Fat injections could help also but again probably not permanent.
A neck lift could help and the most radical solution but one that would probably work best is the just excise and convert several of those lines into one....

Your problem is very unusual, and in order to best advise you I would need to examine you carefully, discuss your goals with you, and review options....
Your options might reasonably include a bit of liposuction, neck lifting, laser resurfacing to improve collagen synthesis, and fat grafting for whatever hollow areas remain.
