Neck Lift in London Ontario
Yazdani Aesthetics offers neck lift surgery in London, Ontario for patients who want to address loose neck skin, jowls, double chin appearance, or visible aging along the jawline and upper neck. A neck lift can help tighten soft tissues, remove excess skin, and improve the contour between the chin, neck, and lower face.
A neck lift is similar to a face lift but is focused on rejuvenating your neck and the lower part of your cheeks. Loose skin beneath your jaw will give you the appearance of having a double chin, even if you are of a healthy weight. Poor muscle tone in the lower part of your face will cause your cheeks to hang down from the sides of your lower jaw. These facial areas, called jowls, are one of the most visible signs of an aging face.

How a Neck Lift Works
A neck lift will remove your jowls by repositioning your tissues. It will correct your double chin by removing loose neck skin and tightening the soft tissues in the upper neck. If only moderate amounts of fat have collected below your jaw, and if your muscles there are strong, liposuction can restore a more youthful neck contour. Patients who have weaker muscles may need an incision below their chin to tighten the neck muscle and sometimes a separate incision behind the ear to remove excess skin.
As with a face lift, you will need to prepare for a two-week recovery period after neck lift surgery, but this procedure will bring you results that you would not be able to achieve in any other way.*
*Individual results may vary and are not guaranteed.
Am I a Good Candidate for a Neck Lift?
An ideal candidate for a neck lift is an individual who is physically healthy, maintains a stable weight, and is experiencing prominent signs of aging below the jawline. Many candidates notice that loose skin gives them the appearance of a double chin even if they are at a healthy weight, or that poor muscle tone in the lower face causes their cheeks to sag into jowls.
For safety and proper wound healing, candidates must be non-smokers or willing to completely stop smoking well in advance of the surgery. Having a clear, realistic understanding of the procedure’s goals—focusing on structural sharpening and comfort—is essential. During your consultation, our team will evaluate your skin elasticity, muscle laxity, and fat distribution to determine if a surgical neck lift is the right approach for you.
Can a Neck Lift Tighten Neck Muscles?
Yes. A key component of a comprehensive neck lift involves addressing the underlying platysma muscle, which often weakens, stretches, or separates into vertical bands as we age. If your underlying muscles are weak, our plastic surgeons will make a discreet incision right below your chin to physically tighten the neck muscle bands together, securing them back into a youthful, firm position. This structural adjustment acts like an internal support system, ensuring your new neck profile remains crisp and well-defined for years to come.
What Is Neck Lift Recovery Like?
Following your procedure at Yazdani Aesthetics, you will need to prepare for a standard two-week recovery period. Most patients feel comfortable returning to a light office or desk job with makeup within several days as initial healing progresses. However, more strenuous physical activity, exercise, and heavy lifting must be strictly avoided for 1 to 2 weeks to prevent complications and allow tissues to stabilize.
Temporary swelling, mild bruising, and localized discomfort are completely normal during the early days. Our team will provide you with a comprehensive, downloadable post-surgery care guide to walk you through managing your recovery comfortably. Incision lines placed beneath the chin and behind the ears will gradually mature, fade, and soften over the subsequent months.
