Neck Lift in South Jersey & Cherry Hill

If you’re frustrated by sagging skin, vertical neck bands, or a loss of jawline definition, a neck lift may be the solution. Dr. Anthony Corrado offers customized neck lift procedures in Cherry Hill, South Jersey to rejuvenate the lower face and neck with precision and artistry.

What Is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift is a surgical procedure designed to tighten loose skin, remove excess fat, and restore youthful contours to the neck and jawline. Modern techniques go beyond surface-level improvements by addressing deeper structural components for more dramatic, longer-lasting results. This includes repositioning underlying tissues, sculpting fat, and tightening the platysma muscle, which plays a key role in neck definition.

How the Procedure Works

Dr. Corrado customizes each neck lift to suit the patient’s anatomy, goals, and degree of aging. Techniques may include:

Traditional Neck Lift: Removes sagging skin, tightens muscles, and recontours fat. Incisions are made under the chin and behind the ears for discreet healing.
Platysmaplasty or Platysmal Myotomy: These methods refine the neck by tightening or modifying the platysma muscle to reduce vertical banding and improve neck shape.
Platysmal Hammock Technique: A specialized technique that supports and lifts deep neck structures, offering enhanced long-term support and a more sculpted, elegant result.
Deep Neck Lift: Ideal for patients with significant aging or structural concerns, this technique removes deep fat, repositions or partially reduces bulky submandibular glands, and enhances muscle definition.
Mini Neck Lift (Weekend Neck Lift): A less invasive approach for those with mild laxity. May include liposuction and Profound® RF for skin tightening, and typically involves shorter incisions and quicker recovery.

All incisions are carefully placed in natural creases or behind the ears to ensure scars are minimal and well-hidden.

Recovery and Downtime

Recovery from neck lift surgery depends on the type of procedure performed and your personal healing response. For traditional and deep neck lifts, most patients require about two to three weeks of downtime. Some swelling, bruising, and tightness are expected, but these effects gradually improve with time. Patients are advised to rest, avoid strenuous activity, and wear a supportive compression garment as recommended.

Mini neck lifts involve a faster recovery—most patients return to daily routines within five to seven days. While residual swelling may persist for several weeks, final results continue to refine over a few months. Dr. Corrado provides detailed post-operative care instructions and support at every stage to ensure your comfort and optimal healing.
