What Is A Necklift?
Create a more youthful, attractive profile with a strategic neck lift. While we typically tend to focus on the age-related flaws that appear in the face, such as wrinkles, fine lines and furrows, the neck can contribute significantly and unexpectedly to a deteriorated aesthetic, especially as the skin begins to sag and unwanted banding forms.
Cervicoplasty is the medical name for a necklift. This cosmetic procedure is designed to help men and women with a aging neck, often referred to in a most unflattering term as a “turkey neck.” Dr. Tan based in Honolulu, Hawaii can help you rejuvenate your appearance by performing a neck lift.
During the neck lift procedure, Dr. Tan will remove excess fat and skin from the neck. The neck muscles are either removed or altered. This surgical neck lift procedure is a form of plastic surgery that will give you a more defined and aesthetically pleasing neck and jaw line appearance.

Candidate For Necklift Surgery
Individuals considering a neck lift in Honolulu generally deal with visibly sagging and hanging skin on the neck.

Regardless of the reason, loose neck skin produces an older, unbecoming look, which in most cases can only be cosmetically fixed with skin removal and tightening. If you are physically healthy and at a good weight but feel embarrassed by lines, wrinkles, and loose skin on your neck, neck lift surgery may be a recommended option.
