Neck lift in Iran
Neck lift surgery in Iran at CeritaMed is tailored to skin laxity, platysma muscle bands, and jawline definition. Depending on your needs, treatment may include a mini or full neck lift, or a combined face and neck lift, planned by experienced plastic and reconstructive surgeons.
The procedure can address loose neck skin, visible neck bands, a poorly defined jawline, and a “turkey neck” to create a smoother, more balanced neck contour.

What Is Neck Lift Surgery?
Neck lift surgery, also called lower rhytidectomy, improves loose skin, muscle laxity, and excess tissue around the neck and jawline. Treatment may include skin removal, platysma tightening, fat contouring, or a combination of these techniques.
Cervicoplasty
Cervicoplasty removes and redrapes excess neck skin to create a smoother, firmer contour, particularly after aging or significant weight loss.
Platysmaplasty
Platysmaplasty tightens or repairs the platysma muscle to reduce visible neck bands and improve the transition between the neck and jawline. It may be performed alone or as part of a full neck lift.
Who Is a Good Candidate for a Neck Lift?
A neck lift may be suitable for people with:
- Loose or sagging neck skin
- Visible platysma muscle bands
- Loss of jawline definition
- A “turkey neck” appearance
- Excess under-chin fat combined with skin or muscle laxity
- Good overall health and realistic expectations
If excess fat is the main concern and skin elasticity remains good, neck liposuction may be more appropriate. The final treatment plan depends on skin quality, muscle laxity, fat distribution, and facial anatomy.
Neck Lift vs. Neck Liposuction
Neck liposuction mainly removes excess fat and is better suited to patients with good skin elasticity.
A neck lift addresses loose skin and deeper structural laxity and may also include platysma tightening or fat contouring.
When both excess fat and loose skin are present, the two procedures may be combined.
| Comparison | Neck Lift | Neck Liposuction |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Loose skin and deeper tissue laxity | Excess fat with good skin elasticity |
| Loose skin | Yes | Limited effect |
| Platysma bands | Can be treated | No |
| Excess fat | Can be contoured if needed | Primary treatment target |
| Jawline definition | Improves through skin and tissue repositioning | Improves mainly by reducing fat |
| May be combined | With liposuction or facelift | With neck lift when skin laxity is present |
Mini Neck Lift & Face and Neck Lift
Depending on the extent of laxity, treatment may involve a mini neck lift, full neck lift, or combined face and neck lift.
Mini Neck Lift
A mini neck lift is a more limited procedure for selected patients with mild to moderate laxity who do not require extensive skin or muscle correction.
Face and Neck Lift
A combined face and neck lift may be recommended when aging affects both areas. It can address jowls, poor jawline definition, loose neck skin, and deeper tissue laxity in one surgical plan.
The surgeon selects the appropriate approach after evaluating the lower face, jawline, neck skin, platysma muscle, and overall facial proportions.
How Is Neck Lift Surgery Performed?
Neck lift surgery is planned according to skin laxity, platysma condition, fat distribution, and the desired degree of jawline definition.
Consultation & Surgical Planning
The surgeon evaluates the neck, jawline, skin, platysma muscle, and lower face to determine whether skin removal, muscle tightening, fat contouring, or a combination is needed.
Anesthesia & Incisions
Surgery may be performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with intravenous sedation. Incisions are usually placed around the ears and, when needed, beneath the chin.
Muscle Tightening & Skin Repositioning
The platysma may be tightened or repaired, excess fat can be contoured, and the skin is redraped to create a smoother neck and more defined jawline.
The procedure usually takes about 2–4 hours, depending on the surgical plan and whether it is combined with a facelift.
Recovery After Neck Lift
Swelling, bruising, tightness, and mild discomfort are common during the first several days.
Many patients return to work and light daily activities within about 10–14 days, although swelling or bruising may last longer. Heavy exercise should be avoided until cleared by the surgeon.Postoperative follow-up visits are important for monitoring incision healing, swelling, and early recovery.
Final neck and jawline contours become clearer as swelling continues to settle over the following weeks and months.
Neck Lift Results
A neck lift can create a smoother, firmer neck, sharpen the jawline, and reduce loose skin and visible muscle bands. Results become more refined as swelling subsides and are generally long-lasting, although natural aging continues.

Is Neck Lift Safe?
Neck lift surgery is a well-established cosmetic procedure and is generally considered safe for appropriately selected patients when performed by a qualified plastic surgeon in an appropriate surgical facility.
Temporary swelling, bruising, tightness, numbness, or changes in skin sensation are common. Less common risks include bleeding, infection, poor wound healing, visible scarring, asymmetry, or the need for revision surgery.
Careful surgical planning and postoperative follow-up help reduce risk and support recovery.

Platysmaplasty Cost in Iran
Platysmaplasty cost in Iran depends on the degree of muscle correction and whether it is performed alone or as part of a full neck lift or combined face and neck lift.
Because platysmaplasty is often one part of an individualized surgical plan, there is no single fixed price for every patient. The final quotation is based on the complete procedure recommended after evaluation.
Lower cosmetic surgery costs in Iran mainly reflect local medical expenses and currency differences rather than a simpler surgical plan.

Frequently Asked Questions About Neck lift in Iran
How long do Neck Lift results last?
Results are generally long-lasting, but natural aging continues. Longevity varies with skin quality, age, weight changes, genetics, smoking, and sun exposure.
Will I have visible scars?
Incisions are carefully placed behind the ears and, when necessary, beneath the chin to minimize visible scarring. As healing progresses, scars typically become less noticeable.
Can a Neck Lift be combined with other procedures?
Yes. A neck lift is often combined with a facelift when aging affects both the lower face and neck. It may also be combined with neck liposuction, eyelid surgery, or fat grafting when appropriate.
Am I a candidate after significant weight loss?
Yes. Individuals with excess neck skin following major weight loss are often excellent candidates for Neck Lift Surgery, provided they are in good overall health.
Can a Neck Lift correct a turkey neck?
Yes. Neck Lift Surgery is one of the most effective treatments for correcting turkey neck, tightening loose skin and underlying muscles to restore a smoother, more youthful neck contour.
Can you have a neck lift without a facelift?
Yes. A standalone neck lift may be appropriate when concerns are limited mainly to the neck and jawline. If significant lower-face laxity is also present, a combined face and neck lift may provide a more balanced result.
