Benefits Of A Neck Lift
A neck lift can help create incredible results, no matter what your aesthetic goals are. Whether you want to reduce deep lines across your neck, achieve a sleek jawline, or rejuvenate the overall area, a neck lift may be the perfect solution. A neck lift in Miami can also help create a sculpted side profile, remove excess skin, and improve your confidence. The recovery from a neck lift is minimal and most feel that the results are well worth the process.
Are There Any Risks With A Neck Lift?
Any surgery has some risk involved, and while a neck lift is considered a safe procedure, there are risks associated with it. These risks include but are not limited to:
- Poor or noticeable scarring
- Infection
- Loss of skin (skin necrosis)
- Bleeding
- Swelling
- Complications with healing
- Asymmetry
- Negative reaction to the anesthesia
The best way to avoid major risks is to choose an experienced cosmetic surgeon who is well-versed in the procedure. Dr. Sessa has performed thousands of successful neck lifts in Miami.
Neck Lift Combinations
At Sarasota Surgical Arts, Dr. Sessa can combine a neck lift with many other procedures to create the results you’re looking for. However, the two most common surgeries combined with a neck lift are a facelift and liposuction.
- Neck Lift & Facelift: When a neck lift and facelift are combined, not only do you receive a total facial rejuvenation, but you also knock out two significant procedures at one time. This means you don’t have to worry about two recoveries and can see the final results of both surgeries much faster.
- Neck Lift & Liposuction: A neck lift is often combined with liposuction, as the neck can hide stubborn pockets of fat that no amount of exercise will eliminate. Combining these two procedures may completely eliminate fat underneath the chin and create that perfect side profile you’re looking for.
Dr. Sessa specializes in both of these combination procedures and can discuss the options during a consultation.

One of the most important decisions for any cosmetic surgery is your chosen provider. We recommend taking your time when choosing and talking to numerous providers before you decide.
When you book your consultation with Dr. Sessa, you can expect in-depth guidance and expert information on every step of the process. He will also ensure you are right for a neck lift, go over pricing, and explain everything to expect for your neck lift in Miami.
