Deep Neck Lift in Philadelphia, PA

A Deep Neck Lift re-sculpts the neck and jawline to create the elegant, defined look of youth. With his years as a leading facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Wulc customizes each procedure to create a fresh, natural-looking outcome.

What is a Deep Neck Lift?

While a traditional neck lift targets the superficial layers of the neck using liposuction and tightening the platysma muscle, a Deep Neck Lift is far more comprehensive. This advanced procedure addresses the deeper tissues beneath the platysma muscle, the cause of the visible signs of aging tissues and skin. The deep fat located near the jawline and neck can create a sagging, puffy appearance, which is fully addressed. With a Deep Neck Lift, Dr. Wulc removes excess fat, tightens tissues, and contours the neck to reestablish a defined, youthful line from the jawline to neck.

What Are the Benefits of a Deep Neck Lift?

A Deep Neck Lift offers dramatic improvements for both men and women, including the following:

Removing double chin fat
Smoothing vertical neck bands
Removing excess neck fat, sagging skin, and creases
Slimming and reshaping the neck to creative a more youthful line

The result? A sculpted, elegant neck and jawline that leaves you looking younger and more vital—without the telltale signs of surgery.

Am I a Good Candidate for a Deep Neck Lift?

A Deep Neck Lift is ideal for men and women who:

Have poor neck definition
Have excess fat or sagging skin from chin to neck
Want a more defined, youthful jawline
Are in good overall health

Whether you want to create a more masculine jawline or redefine a youthful, feminine line. Dr. Wulc’s expertise in this advanced surgical technique creates a very natural-looking outcome, fresh, sculpted, and refined.

How is a Deep Neck Lift Performed?

Dr. Wulc begins the procedure with a small incision under the chin and behind the ears, carefully placed within the natural creases so they are virtually invisible once healed. Using advanced techniques, localized fat is either repositioned or removed, and the underlying tissues are lifted and tightened. The vertical platysma muscles are sutured together to create a smooth, youthful neck contour. Excess skin is removed, and the neck meticulously sculpted to create a more ideal structure. The entire procedure is performed with precision, ensuring that scarring is minimal, and the results exceptionally fresh and natural.

What is the Recovery Like?

Recovery from a Deep Neck Lift typically lasts 10 to 12 days. Some tightness and stiffness are expected in the initial recovery period , but these sensations gradually fade. Within one to two weeks, you’ll be able to return to your normal activities, and the incision lines can be easily concealed with cosmetics.

At W Cosmetic Surgery™, we use ultrasonic techniques to help soften any stiffness and speed your recovery. Dr. Wulc and his team will guide you through the post-operative process to ensure a smooth and comfortable recovery, allowing you to fully enjoy your rejuvenated appearance.

Which Procedures Complement a Deep Neck Lift?

For a fully refreshed look, many patients choose to combine their Deep Neck Lift with other rejuvenation treatments, including:

Chin Implants for enhanced jawline definition
Deep Plane Facelift for comprehensive transformation
Eyelid Lift (Blepharoplasty) to rejuvenate the eyes
Brow Lift to lift the brows and smooth the forehead
Skin Smoothing Treatments such as laser resurfacing, chemical peels, and microdermabrasion to enhance skin texture and tone

Dr. Wulc can create a personalized treatment plan to achieve your desired aesthetic goals.
