For many people, the neck is one of the first areas to show visible signs of aging, including loose skin, volume loss under the chin, or banding that affects the jawline. These changes are normal. But if they start to feel out of sync with how you see yourself, subtle surgical refinement can make a meaningful difference.
At Dr. Rose Plastic Surgery, neck lift procedures often include chin liposuction for complete lower face rejuvenation. Dr. Jacqueline Rose Makerewich takes a precise, natural approach —sculpting where needed, tightening where helpful, and always preserving a soft, graceful profile.
There’s no push to erase time, just support in feeling more like yourself again.
A neck lift, also known as a lower rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure that addresses signs of aging below the jawline. This includes excess fat, loose skin, or muscle banding across the neck. When paired with chin liposuction, the treatment reshapes the entire lower face, enhancing jawline definition and smoothing the neck’s profile.
The goal isn’t to change your appearance, but to restore a look that feels more rested and more in tune with how you carry yourself.
Dr. Rose will tailor your surgical plan to your unique skin tone, muscle structure, and chin volume. Most neck lifts involve:

Most patients return to light activity within a week, with swelling and tightness gradually improving over 2 to 4 weeks. You’ll be given a custom recovery plan including:
You’ll feel supported throughout every phase—from dressing changes to long-term scar refinement.
Early improvements are often visible within 1–2 weeks, with final results developing over the next few months as swelling resolves. Scars are discreet and fade over time with proper care. Your neck will appear smoother, firmer, and more in alignment with the angles of your jaw and face.
Results are long-lasting, especially when paired with sun protection and healthy lifestyle habits.
