At Real Face, the Deep Neck Lift is pointed out to be the cornerstone of true neck and facial rejuvenation. Unlike traditional neck lifts—which focus superficially on tightening the platysma muscle and trimming fat above it—this advanced technique targets deeper anatomical structures often neglected, ensuring transformative and natural results.




What Sets a Deep Neck Lift Apart?

Targets the Root Causes:

The digastric muscles, which can become bulky with age, are reshaped or reduced to refine the neck’s contour. Subplatysmal fat, deeper than what standard neck lifts address, is sculpted for a sharper jawline and improved chin-to-neck angle. Additionally, submandibular glands may be trimmed if they are overly prominent, contributing to a smoother and more refined neck profile.

Longevity & Natural Results: 

By repositioning deep tissues and addressing glandular issues, a Deep Neck Lift delivers results that last far beyond superficial skin-tightening techniques.

Facelift Compatibility:

A traditional SMAS facelift often focuses on tightening skin and SMAS rather than lifting deeper facial structures. If you’re only looking for skin tightening, you may want to skip the scars associated with this procedure altogether and opt for Renuvion instead—a minimally invasive option for skin tightening—but only after a Deep Neck Lift.

For those seeking comprehensive facial rejuvenation, a Bi-Plane SMAS Facelift or Deep Plane Facelift can complement the Deep Neck Lift by addressing deeper facial tissues for harmonious results.

Key Takeaway:

A youthful neck demands correction of deeper structures—digastric muscles and subplatysmal fat. Without a Deep Neck Lift, even the finest facelift falters in longevity. Prioritize deep-plane neck work first; for skin tightening in the lower face after that, consider minimally invasive options like Renuvion. If seeking the total package, pair a Bi-Plane SMAS Facelift or Deep Plane Facelift with your Deep Neck Lift to harmonize facial and neck rejuvenation by addressing deeper tissues.

Warning About Traditional vs. Deep Neck Lifts If you've previously had a traditional neck lift, it likely included platysmaplasty (muscle tightening). This complicates a subsequent deep neck lift, as scar tissue and altered anatomy make the revision significantly more complex. You’ll be paying two procedure costs, with the second at higher revision pricing—yet most surgeons performing traditional lifts won’t warn you about this financial and surgical burden. Prevalence of Traditional Neck Lifts (The Hiding Of The Upsell) 90–95% of plastic surgeons still perform traditional neck lifts, which prioritize skin tightening and basic platysmaplasty. Only 5–10% specialize in deep plane neck lifts, which address deeper structures for longer-lasting, natural results. The traditional approach is more common, less effective, and often leads to costly revisions. Patients are rarely informed that a deep neck lift would have been the better long-term investment upfront. Always seek a deep plane ...
