What is a Neck Lift (Platysmaplasty)?
A neck lift is a surgerical procedure designed to improve the appearance of the neck by removing
excess skin and fat. The steps involve skin stretching, removal and tightening to create a smoother,
more youthful appearance
Why Does Neck Skin Become Droopy?
The first step to improving neck appearance is determining the underlying cause of skin droopiness.
Depending on the cause, some operations may be much more effective than others.
Whether a neck lift in Turkey is a good option for you will be determined by our medical advisors in a
free online medical consultation. Neck skin can become droopy for several reasons:
1. Aging
2. Genetics
3. Weight fluctuations
4. Sun exposure
5. Poor posture
6. Smoking
These represent 6 of the most common causes. Should you want to determine the cause behind neck

Good overall health: You should be free from any medical conditions that could interfere with the surgery.
Elastic skin: Your skin should have enough elasticity to allow for repositioning without wrinkling or sagging.
Preferably Non-smoker: Smoking can increase the risks associated with surgery and may impair healing, so it is important to quit smoking prior to the procedure.
Stable weight: Your weight should be stable, as significant fluctuations in weight can affect the results of the surgery.
No medical contraindications: Certain medications may make you ineligible for neck lift surgery in Turkey.
Good mental health: You should be mentally and emotionally stable, with a positive outlook and realistic expectations about the procedure.

What to Expect After the Operation
After platysmaplasty surgery, you can expect some degree of discomfort, swelling, and bruising. You
may also experience numbness, tightness, or a pulling sensation in the neck. During the first few days after surgery, you may need to wear a compression garment to help reduce swelling and promote healing. You should also avoid strenuous physical activity or heavy lifting. Your surgeon will provide pain medication to manage any discomfort. It’s important to follow all post-operative instructions to ensure proper healing and minimize the risk of complications.
You may need to take several days off work or other activities to rest and recover. The length of recovery time can vary, depending on the extent of the surgery and your individual healing response. It’s also important to attend all scheduled follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure a successful outcome. With proper care and follow-up, you can expect to see noticeable improvements in the appearance of your neck within the first few weeks after surgery.

Why does the neck age faster than face?
The skin on the neck is thinner and more delicate than the skin on the face, which means that it is
more susceptible to damage and wrinkles. The muscles in the neck are also constantly working to
support the weight of the head, which can lead to a loss of elasticity and firmness over time

tightening the neck muscles can help to improve the contour of the jawline and create a more
