What Is a Neck Lift?

A neck lift — medically known as lower rhytidectomy — is a cosmetic surgical procedure that improves visible signs of aging in the jawline and neck. It targets sagging skin, excess fat deposits, and loose platysma muscle banding to create a smoother, dramatically more youthful neck contour.

At our JCI-accredited hospital in Istanbul, our board-certified plastic surgeons use advanced techniques including deep-plane lifting, SMAS tightening, and platysmaplasty to deliver results that can take 10–15 years off your appearance — with natural-looking outcomes that age gracefully.

  • Eliminates "turkey neck" and sagging jowls
  • Tightens platysma muscle bands
  • Removes excess submental fat
  • Redefines the jawline contour
  • Minimal scarring behind the ears
  • Results last 10–15 years

Neck Lift Procedure Steps — Section 4
The Procedure

How a Neck Lift Is Performed

A step-by-step look at what happens during your lower rhytidectomy — from first incision to your recovery suite.

1

Anesthesia & Preparation

You'll receive general anesthesia or IV sedation administered by a board-certified anesthesiologist. The surgical area is carefully marked following the pre-operative 3D imaging plan, then sterilized under strict hospital protocols.

~30 minutes Board-Certified Team
2

Strategic Incisions

Small incisions are placed behind the ears and beneath the chin, carefully hidden within natural skin creases. These precise access points allow the surgeon to address muscle, fat, and skin — while keeping scars virtually invisible once healed.

Hidden in creases Minimal scarring
3

Muscle Tightening & Fat Sculpting

The surgeon performs a platysmaplasty — tightening the separated platysma muscle bands that cause visible neck banding. Excess submental fat is removed using VASER-assisted liposuction for precise contouring. Deep-plane SMAS techniques reposition tissue for long-lasting, natural results.

1.5–2 hours Core surgical step
4

Skin Redraping & Closure

Excess skin is carefully trimmed and redraped over the newly contoured neck. Incisions are closed with fine absorbable sutures and tissue adhesive for optimal healing. A custom-fitted compression garment is applied to minimize swelling and support your new profile.

~45 minutes Absorbable sutures
5

VIP Recovery & Aftercare

You'll spend one night at the hospital under professional monitoring, then transfer to your 5-star hotel to continue recovery. Our medical team provides 24/7 WhatsApp support, daily wound checks, and a personalized recovery plan. Most patients are ready for light activities within 7–10 days and can fly home comfortably.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about neck lift surgery in Turkey. Can't find your answer? Reach out via WhatsApp — we respond within minutes.

A neck lift (lower rhytidectomy) specifically targets the neck and jawline area — removing excess skin, tightening the platysma muscles, and eliminating submental fat. A facelift addresses the mid and lower face. They can be combined for comprehensive rejuvenation, but a standalone neck lift is ideal for patients whose primary concern is the neck contour, turkey neck, or jowl sagging.
A standard neck lift in Turkey starts from $3,200 (all-inclusive) compared to $8,000–$15,000 in the USA and £6,500–£12,000 in the UK. Turkey prices include surgery, hospital stay, 5-star hotel, private transfers, personal translator, all medications, and lifetime aftercare — while US/UK prices typically cover surgery only.
Our surgeons employ several advanced techniques tailored to each patient: deep-plane SMAS lifting for long-lasting repositioning, platysmaplasty for muscle band correction, VASER-assisted liposuction for precision fat sculpting, and laser-assisted skin tightening. The specific combination depends on your 3D imaging assessment and individual anatomy.
Most patients return to desk work within 10–14 days and social activities by week 3. The full recovery timeline: Day 1 in hospital, week 1 at your 5-star hotel with daily checkups, sutures removed at day 7–10, cleared to fly home by day 10–14. Final results are fully visible at 6 months, with results lasting 10–15 years.
Absolutely. Our surgery is performed at JCI-accredited hospitals — the same international gold standard that accredits top US hospitals like Mayo Clinic and Cleveland Clinic. Our surgeons are ISAPS and EBOPRAS-certified with 15+ years of experience. Turkey performs over 1 million cosmetic procedures annually and is one of the world's top medical tourism destinations.
Your all-inclusive package covers: surgery and anesthesia, 1-night hospital stay, all pre-op blood tests and imaging, all medications and compression garments, 5-star hotel accommodation (7–10 nights), private VIP airport transfers, personal translator throughout your stay, daily post-op wound checks, and lifetime aftercare including video follow-ups. Zero hidden fees.
Incisions are strategically placed behind the ears and beneath the chin — hidden within natural skin creases. Once healed (3–6 months), scars are virtually invisible. Our surgeons use fine absorbable sutures and tissue adhesive for optimal cosmetic healing. We also provide a scar care protocol to further minimize their appearance.
We recommend a 7–10 day stay in Istanbul. Day 1 is your pre-op consultation and blood tests, day 2 is surgery, followed by recovery at your 5-star hotel with daily medical checkups. You'll be cleared to fly home once your surgeon confirms your healing is on track — typically by day 7–10. Your hotel stay is fully included in the package.
Most patients are cleared to fly within 10–14 days after surgery. Flying is safe once your surgeon confirms there are no complications. For long-haul flights, we recommend a neck pillow, staying hydrated, and wearing your compression garment. We'll schedule a video follow-up within 48 hours of your return home.
Neck lifts are performed under general anesthesia administered by a board-certified anesthesiologist. In some cases (like a mini neck lift), IV sedation with local anesthesia may be used instead. Your surgeon will recommend the safest option based on the extent of your procedure during your pre-op consultation.
Our plastic surgeons hold ISAPS (International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery) and EBOPRAS (European Board of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery) certifications. They have 15+ years of surgical experience, thousands of successful procedures, and ongoing international training in the latest facial rejuvenation techniques.
Turkey's lower cost of living and favorable exchange rate mean operational costs are significantly lower than in the US or UK — without any reduction in quality. Surgeon training, hospital standards, and equipment are identical. Turkey also has government-backed incentives for medical tourism, and the high volume of procedures allows clinics to offer competitive all-inclusive pricing.
Yes! A neck lift is commonly combined with: facelift (for full facial rejuvenation), blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), brow lift, and chin augmentation. Combining procedures means one recovery period and significant cost savings compared to separate surgeries. Your surgeon will advise which combinations are safe during your consultation.
Most patients describe post-op discomfort as mild to moderate — more like tightness and pressure than sharp pain. We provide prescription pain medication for the first few days. By day 5–7, most patients only need over-the-counter painkillers. Swelling and bruising peak around day 3–5 then rapidly subside. The compression garment helps significantly with comfort.
Most nationalities can obtain an e-Visa online in minutes at evisa.gov.tr. US, UK, Canadian, and Australian citizens qualify for e-Visas. EU citizens don't need a visa for stays under 90 days. Our patient coordinator will guide you through the visa process as part of your travel planning — we handle all the logistics so you can focus on your transformation.
Neck lift results typically last 10–15 years. The aging clock is effectively "reset" — you'll always look younger than you would have without the surgery. Longevity depends on skin quality, sun protection, lifestyle, and genetics. We recommend SPF daily, good skincare, and maintaining a stable weight to maximize the longevity of your results.
You have 24/7 WhatsApp access to your medical team — for life. If any concern arises, send a photo or video via WhatsApp and you'll receive guidance within minutes. In the rare event a revision is needed, it will be covered at no additional cost. We also schedule video follow-ups at weeks 2, 4, and 12 to proactively monitor your healing.
Absolutely! Many patients bring a partner, friend, or family member. Your companion stays at the same 5-star hotel — usually at a small additional fee for the second guest. They're welcome at all appointments and consultations. Istanbul is a wonderful city to explore while you're recovering, and having a companion can make the experience even more enjoyable.
Yes, we offer flexible payment options. A small deposit secures your booking, with the balance due before surgery. We accept bank transfer, credit/debit cards, and can discuss installment arrangements on a case-by-case basis. Contact us for the latest payment plan options available for your specific procedure.
You'll notice a dramatic improvement immediately, even with swelling. By week 3–4, about 70% of the final result is visible as swelling subsides. Months 2–3 bring continued refinement as residual swelling resolves. The truly final result — with completely settled tissue and faded scars — is visible at 6 months post-op. Most patients are thrilled with their results by week 4.
