Neck Lift
If sagging skin or loss of definition in your neck is affecting your confidence, it may be time to consider a neck lift. Triple board-certified Dr. Carey Nease, MD, has performed numerous neck lift surgeries in Chattanooga, TN, and the surrounding areas, helping patients achieve a smoother, more sculpted neckline with natural, long-lasting results.
What is a Neck Lift?
A neck lift, or lower rhytidectomy, is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to improve the appearance of the neck by addressing sagging skin, excess fat, and muscle laxity. This transformative procedure enhances the jawline and neck contour, creating a smoother, more youthful appearance.
During a neck lift, excess skin is removed, underlying muscles are tightened, and fat deposits may be reduced or repositioned to achieve a more defined and sculpted look. The procedure is often combined with a facelift or other treatments for comprehensive rejuvenation.
For those considering a neck lift in Chattanooga, TN, and the surrounding areas of Kimball, Nashville, and Scottsboro, AL, Dr. Carey Nease offers advanced techniques and personalized care to deliver stunning, natural-looking results.

Neck Lift Recovery & Aftercare
Proper recovery and aftercare are essential to achieving the best results from your neck lift in Chattanooga. Following your surgeon’s instructions will ensure a smooth healing process and long-lasting outcomes. Here are six key tips to keep in mind:
1
Minimize Swelling and Bruising
Keep your head elevated and apply cold compresses as directed to reduce swelling and bruising during the initial recovery phase.
2
Follow Incision Care Guidelines
Clean your incisions as instructed and use prescribed ointments to prevent infection and promote proper healing.
3
Avoid Strenuous Activities
Refrain from heavy lifting, exercise, and activities that strain your neck for at least two weeks to allow for uninterrupted healing.
4
Wear Support Garments
If recommended, wear a compression garment around your neck to support the healing process and reduce swelling.
5
Protect Your Neck from Sun Exposure
Use sunscreen and avoid direct sunlight on your neck to protect healing skin and minimize the risk of scarring.

Attend Follow-Up Appointments
Regular follow-ups with your surgeon ensure your recovery is progressing well and allow for any necessary adjustments.
