The neck is often one of the first places that people notice aging signs. As we age, the neck tends to droop and the skin and fat under the chin sags. The overall result is that definition in the chin, neck, and jawline is lost. Although the neck lift is the single best way to lift and rejuvenate the neck, sometimes a more substantial correction is needed. The deep neck lift is a transformative option performed at

Gilpin Facial Plastics & Aesthetics.

The deep neck lift is similar to the deep plane facelift. Whereas the traditional neck lift simply gets rid of sagging skin and fat, the deep plane neck lift concerns the deeper tissues, glands, and muscles. Each layer of the neck is lifted and repositioned rather than simply smoothing the skin on top. The result is a more defined, contoured neck and jawline that can last for decades.

Your Deep Neck Lift Consultation with Dr. Gilpin

Your first step in your cosmetic journey is a consultation with our double-board-certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. David Gilpin. As Nashville’s most experienced and premier facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Gilpin has decades of experience performing the neck lift and advanced facial plastic surgery techniques. As one of the only facial plastic surgeons in Nashville offering the deep plane neck lift, he can discuss your best options and what you can expect from your neck lift results.
During your consultation, you’ll be encouraged to ask questions and voice concerns so that we can help you feel confident in your decision to undergo plastic surgery. Our goal is to build a relationship that allows us to support you at every stage of your cosmetic journey. Dr. Gilpin will provide a detailed surgical plan as well as instructions on how to best achieve your ideal results with the deep neck lift.

How Do I Know When I’m Ready for a Deep Neck Lift?

The deep neck lift is ideal for patients who want transformative results beyond what a traditional neck lift can offer. If you identify with the following, you may be able to benefit from a deep plane neck lift:
• You have lost definition around your neck and chin
• You have considerable sagging or heaviness in your neck
• Your profile is diminished by heavy neck muscles, fat, and tissues
• You have visible neck bands and sagging glands

Only Dr. Gilpin can determine whether you can benefit more from the deep plane neck lift or the traditional neck lift. A traditional neck lift does not concern the deeper tissues of the neck, meaning it can only excise sagging skin and fat. A deep neck lift, on the other hand, can resuspend sagging muscles and deeper tissues for a more substantial correction. The deep neck lift can easily be combined with other facial cosmetic surgeries like the deep plane facelift or endoscopic brow lift based on your unique cosmetic goals. Dr. Gilpin will give you a professional recommendation during your consultation on the best surgical options for your needs.

What Happens During a Deep Neck Lift?

A deep neck lift is performed using general anesthesia at our accredited surgical facility. Dr. Gilpin will review your surgical plan and ensure you’re comfortable before beginning the procedure. A single one-inch incision will be performed underneath the chin. Through this incision, the deep tissues of the neck can be lifted and resuspended to their natural position. Any excess fat will be removed, and the muscles will be tightened. Once complete, you can return home for your recovery.

Deep Neck Lift Results and Recovery

When you return home from our Nashville office, you can expect to have some soreness, swelling, and bruising. Our knowledgeable team will provide detailed aftercare instructions including keeping your head elevated, avoiding turning or twisting your neck, and more. During your follow-ups with Dr. Gilpin, he’ll give you a personalized recommendation on when you can return to your daily activities and how long you should wear your compression garment if indicated. Most patients can return to office-based work within 1-2 weeks.
Within 1-2 weeks, swelling should begin to subside and your results should begin to emerge. You’ll notice a more contoured, lifted look to the neck, chin, and jawline, with a reduction in sagging and heaviness around the neck. Your final results will continue to refine and emerge over the next several weeks to months. With the right anti-aging regimen and the expertise of Dr. Gilpin, you can expect your results to last for decades.
