What is a Neck Lift?
A neck lift is a cosmetic, surgical procedure designed to improve the appearance of the neck by addressing signs of aging, such as jowls, sagging skin, excess fat, or banding. A neck lift can rejuvenate your overall facial appearance by tightening and repositioning the underlying structures and muscles of the neck to revitalize the appearance and create a sleeker, slimmer profile. A key component of a neck lift is skin removal. After the deeper structures are repositioned and lifted, the neck skin is redraped and excess is permanently removed. Other less-invasive neck rejuvenation options like MyEllevate®, do not remove redundant skin.
With neck rejuvenation procedures at BEYOND Collective, Dr. Olivia MaDan strives to create a finished, more polished facial appearance. Dr. MaDan often performs a neck lift in conjunction with a facelift to create a harmonious, youthful facial appearance to help you reclaim your confidence.
Nashville neck lift procedures can improve the appearance of:
- Sagging skin and muscle laxity
- Lack of jawline definition
- Jowls or pre-jowls
- Double chin
- Fat deposits on jawline
- Wrinkles on the neck
- Muscle bands
MyEllevate® Neck Rejuvenation
Dr. MaDan is one of a few select surgeons in Nashville to offer MyEllevate®. MyEllevate® is a sophisticated, minimally invasive neck rejuvenation treatment. With minimal downtime, this specialized non-surgical treatment is designed to create a defined and lifted neck contour. It is essential to realize that MyEllevate® is NOT a thread lift of any kind. Thread lifts are a temporary, absorbable treatment intended to stimulate collagen production.
Dr. MaDan’s signature minimally invasive neck rejuvenation treatment, combines three modalities: liposuction for fat reduction, Renuvion® plasma RF energy for skin tightening and MyEllevate® to address the “bands and glands” or deeper structures of the neck. The MyEllevate® permanent suture suspension system helps increase collagen to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, jowls, and “turkey neck.” Other benefits of the MyEllevate® system include:
- Quick and comfortable recovery
- No sutures or incisions
- Outstanding, long-lasting results
- Local anesthesia with oral sedation
- Instant visible results
- Natural-looking results
Enhancing Procedures
Patients considering a neck lift are typically concerned about other signs of facial aging, especially in the mid or upper face and their skin’s appearance. Often, optimal neck lift results require full facial rejuvenation, creating a harmonious, youthful look. Medical grade skin care is an essential component to anti-aging. It is important to protect the investment you’ve made with high-quality, effective products.
To achieve dramatic facial rejuvenation, additional procedures can be performed simultaneously, including:
- Facelift
- Blepharoplasty, or Eyelid Surgery
- Brow Lift
- Upper Lip lift
- Dermal Fillers
- Neurotoxins
- Medical-grade skin care
A neck lift addresses signs of aging to help maintain a youthful appearance, but the appearance of the skin is the foundation for your results. Dr. MaDan may recommend other non-surgical med spa treatments to complement your neck lift, enhancing your results.

Preparing for a Neck Lift
Before your Nashville neck lift, it’s essential to be in good overall health. Here’s some information to help you prepare.
Neck Lift Procedure Overview
On the night before surgery, don’t eat or drink anything after midnight; however, take necessary medications with small sips of water. Avoid wearing makeup, lotions, or deodorants, and remove all jewelry. Wear comfortable, loose clothing that is easy to put on after your procedure.
Review your paperwork to ensure your surgery location and arrival time. At check-in, you may need to provide identification and emergency contact information.
On the day of your procedure, you’ll meet with Dr. MaDan and your anesthesia provider to review the details of your surgery and answer any final questions.
If Dr. MaDan recommends adding liposuction to your procedure, she may perform this first to eliminate excess fat from the central neck.
Dr. MaDan will create small, well-concealed incisions near the ears to access the deeper neck structures.. Then, Dr. MaDan will reposition the neck tissues to create a smooth, defined jawline and a more youthful-looking neck. The skin is then redraped and excess permanently removed.
After achieving the desired contours, Dr. MaDan will place very fine, permanent sutures to close the incisions. These stitches are usually black or blue in color. The stitches are removed in the office within 5 to 7 days of your surgery.
Nashville Neck Lift Recovery
How Soon Will I See My Neck Lift Results?
Following neck lift surgery, patients can appreciate immediate results. Most patients experience swelling and bruising that typically lasts 1 to 2 weeks and obscure the final outcome. Minor, residual swelling may last for several weeks to months.
Neck lift scars are typically placed in inconspicuous locations. Scarring is most pronounced in the first few months, but incisions will heal and form a pinkish scar. Dr. MaDan will provide you with her medical-grade scar therapy regimen to optimize its appearance.
Following all post-operative instructions and maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine will help your Nashville neck lift results last for 10 to 15 years.

Neck Lift in Nashville FAQs
Neck lift surgery is performed with general anesthesia, so the surgery will be completely painless. However, patients can expect pain during the recovery process, primarily within the first few days. Fortunately, this pain can be managed with pain medications, rest and by following your recovery guidelines. Despite an uncomfortable few days at the beginning of the recovery process, many patients find the neck lift process to be manageable.
There is no perfect age for a neck lift, as each person ages differently. If you are experiencing signs of aging in the lower part of the face, including sagging skin, wrinkles, a double chin or other stubborn fat, you may be a good candidate for a neck lift regardless of your age. For most patients, these symptoms develop in the 40s, 50s and 60s.
After a neck lift, most limitations will include your physical activities. You should avoid strenuous exercise for a few weeks while the body heals. Additionally, you’ll need to avoid baths, hot showers and similar environments that can hinder the healing process. Finally, you should sleep on your back with your head elevated to prevent any stress to the treatment area.
Yes! Neck lifts are often performed as a stand-alone procedure. This may be the optimal solution for patients who are experiencing signs of aging in the lower face, but not in other areas of the face. However, combining a facelift with a neck lift can be an effective solution for patients who are interested in comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
Patients seeking a neck lift alternative may want to consider non-surgical skin tightening treatments. These treatments provide similar benefits without surgery and extended periods of downtime. However, non-surgical treatments will not be able to provide results as extensive as a neck lift. Patients with mild signs of aging may be good candidates for alternative treatments, while patients with moderate to severe signs of aging may want to consider a neck lift for optimal results.
