What is a neck lift?

Your neck can be a dead-giveaway with regard to your age. With time the skin on your neck can lose elasticity and begin to sag and droop, along with the unwelcome development of fat tissue build-up, which is not the most appealing.

  • Smooth out fine lines, wrinkles and neck bands
  • Revive tine and volume to reveal a cleaner, more fluid silhouette
  • Lift and tighten drooping skin
