Neck lift and what to expect - will I need 100 stitches?

There are many different ways to perform a necklift. In general, 100 stitches sounds a bit high, but the better measure of the surgeon is the experience he or she has in performing this procedure. The surgeon should be a facial specialist and have plenty of photos showing results you like. A properly performed necklift usually comes out great, but if there are any issues, a quality surgeon will take care of them for you.

In our practice we use just as many sutures for most of these surgeries, but that's not a relevant detail, since most are dissolving and patients don't even get to see them (or count them).  Focus on your goals, not the number of sutures.
