What is a Neck Lift or Neck Contouring?
A Neck Lift in San Francisco is a surgical procedure designed to address visible signs of aging in the neck and jawline area. It targets sagging skin, excess fat deposits, and muscle laxity to create a smoother, firmer, and more youthful appearance.
During the procedure, deep neck structures such as submandibular glands and deep fat are removed, underlying muscles may be tightened, and the remaining skin is repositioned and tightened to restore definition and contour to the neck and jawline. This is not a one-size-fits-all procedure, but rather a customized method for contouring the neck. This comprehensive approach results in a more rejuvenated and refreshed look, helping patients regain confidence in their appearance.

A Neck Lift offers several benefits to individuals seeking to rejuvenate their appearance:

Neck Lift Consultation
What’s the first step?
The first step for a Neck Lift procedure in San Francisco is to schedule a consultation with Dr. Raj Dedhia or one of our skilled providers. During the consultation, you will have the opportunity to discuss your goals, concerns, and expectations regarding the Neck Lift.
Our team will evaluate your neck anatomy, skin elasticity, and overall health to determine if you are a suitable candidate for the procedure. We will also explain the surgical techniques involved, discuss potential risks and complications, and provide personalized recommendations tailored to your needs.
This initial consultation serves as an essential foundation for developing a customized treatment plan and ensuring that you are well-informed and comfortable before proceeding with the Neck Lift surgery.
What to expect on the day of Neck Lift surgery
On the day of your Neck Lift surgery in San Francisco, you can expect a well-organized environment designed to ensure your comfort and safety throughout the procedure. Prior to the surgery, you will meet with the surgical team of providers to review the details of the operation and address any last-minute questions or concerns you may have.
Once you are ready, you will be taken to the operating room, where you will receive anesthesia to ensure you are comfortable and pain-free during the procedure. Dr. Dedhia or one of our skilled surgeons will then carefully perform the Neck Lift surgery according to the agreed-upon treatment plan, using advanced surgical techniques to address excess skin, fat, and muscle laxity in the neck area. In some cases, liposuction may be performed to remove excess fat deposits from the neck area, further enhancing the contour of the neck and jawline.
Once the underlying tissues have been addressed, our surgeon will carefully redrape the skin over the newly contoured neck structures. Any excess skin will be trimmed away, and the remaining skin will be smoothed and tightened for a rejuvenated appearance. After achieving the desired results, we will meticulously close the incisions using sutures or surgical adhesive. They may also use skin adhesives or surgical tape to support the incisions and promote optimal healing.
Throughout the surgery, our surgical team will closely monitor your vital signs and ensure that you are well-supported and cared for. After the procedure is complete, you will be taken to a recovery area, where you will be closely monitored as you wake up from anesthesia. Dr. Dedhia and his team of providers will supply detailed post-operative instructions and guidance to help facilitate a smooth recovery process.
Neck Lift Recovery
Following your Neck Lift procedure in San Francisco, it’s important to allow yourself adequate time to rest and recover. You may experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated area, which is normal and to be expected.
During the initial recovery period, it’s essential to keep your head elevated and avoid strenuous activities to minimize swelling and promote optimal healing. You may also be advised to wear a compression garment or bandage around the neck to support the surgical area and reduce swelling.
