I have had multiple consultations with surgeons regarding a neck lift and have gotten different answers regarding removing excess skin for a neck lift. One said no skin is removed, just lipo to remove the neck fat and then repositioning of the tissue with added plication and suspension suture. Another surgeon said they would potentially remove 1 inch of excess skin on either side of the neck.
