Neck Lifts in
Denver, CO
Overview
Commonly referred to as “turkey neck,” an aging neck can be improved by cosmetic surgery, such as a neck lift, which removes excessive fat and tightens the muscles to achieve a more streamlined look. Loose skin around the neck can result from several factors, including weight loss, aging, or gravity, leading to excess fat and sagging neck skin. Facial plastic surgery can also address these concerns, offering surgical and nonsurgical rejuvenation options.
In some cases, Dr. Shah will pair a neck lift with liposuction to remove excess fat and augment the benefits of the surgery. The results can be quite dramatic since the profile is greatly altered, resulting in a leaner, more youthful appearance with reduced lines and wrinkles. The neck lift procedure typically lasts between one and three hours and involves personalized techniques to target specific patient concerns, such as tightening neck muscles and removing excess skin.
With over 3,000 face and neck lift procedures performed since starting practice in the Denver area in 2005, there isn’t another surgeon in Colorado with this kind of experience. Our patients from Denver and the surrounding region can rely on Dr. Shah to achieve their goals safely and naturally in facial rejuvenation surgery.

Who Is A Candidate for A Neck Lift?
Factors like age and significant weight loss can lead to excess skin around the neck, making various facial procedures necessary. This is because sagging skin in this area is thinner and more delicate than other parts of the body. Candidates for a neck lift are typically in good health and have realistic expectations for their surgical outcomes. Shah Aesthetic Surgery can determine your eligibility during a consultation. Dr. Shah will ensure you are physically and emotionally prepared to undergo this innovative procedure and have a clear understanding of our processes.
Surgical Technique to Remove Excess Fat
A neck lift removes hanging skin and reshapes the neck. During the procedure, an incision is placed under the chin and/or behind or in front of the ears. If fat deposits are present and need to be removed, liposuction will be used during the surgery and performed first. The final steps of treatment will be to trim away excess skin, pull the remaining underlying tissue and neck muscles tight, and suture the incision closed meticulously.
During/After Surgery
This procedure is performed under general anesthesia as an outpatient surgery at an accredited surgical clinic. It can also be performed under local anesthesia is so desired. Facial rejuvenation procedures, such as facelifts and neck lifts, aim to enhance a person’s appearance and restore a youthful look. The duration of the surgery usually takes around 2 hours, although it may vary depending on the case. Bruising and swelling will be visible after the surgery, but this will subside in the few short days following the procedure. Initially, patients will feel tightness and numbness. Once the neck adjusts to its new position, patients will notice a more relaxed feeling and a beautiful surgical result. It can take up to 6 months for the final results to appear.
