Rejuvenate Your Appearance with Mr Aftab Ahmed
The neck, often considered a cornerstone of one's anatomical profile, is frequently the initial region to manifest the subtle, yet undeniable signs of aging.
Do you feel that the skin around your neck has lost its firmness over time, leaving you longing for a smoother, more youthful appearance? At Aftab Ahmed Aesthetics, a neck lift offers a gentle yet transformative way to rejuvenate the neck area, helping you feel confident and refreshed.
Over time, ageing, genetics, or weight changes can cause the neck’s skin and muscles to lose elasticity, resulting in visible sagging and lines. A neck lift, also known as lower rhytidectomy, is a precise surgical procedure that addresses these concerns by tightening the skin, redefining the jawline, and reducing the appearance of wrinkles or neck "bands."
With every neck lift fully tailored to your unique features, expert facial plastic surgeon Mr Aftab Ahmed ensures results that are beautifully natural and perfectly suited to you. Performed in modern, state-of-the-art clinics in Nottingham and Doncaster, the procedure is designed to help you look and feel your very best in a safe and professional setting. Let us help you rediscover your confidence.

His profound expertise, coupled with an unwavering commitment to clinical excellence, ensures that patients receive outcomes that are not only aesthetically superior but also aligned with the highest standards of medical care.
Also Known As: Lower face lift, lower rhytidectomy, neck contouring surgery.
What Is a Neck Lift?
A neck lift is a surgical procedure designed to address visible signs of ageing in the neck and jawline, offering a more defined and youthful contour. It involves tightening the underlying muscles, removing excess skin, and in some cases, reducing fat deposits for a smoother and firmer appearance.
A neck lift can address a variety of concerns, including:
- Loose or sagging skin in the neck.
- Wrinkles or horizontal lines ("turkey neck").
- Muscle bands or cords in the neck.
- Jowls or loss of jawline definition.
The result is a rejuvenated neck and jawline that enhances your natural beauty while maintaining a harmonious balance with the rest of your face.

Types of Necklift:
The realm of Necklift procedures is vast, with each technique meticulously designed by Mr Aftab Ahmed to cater to distinct aesthetic concerns and anatomical requirements:
- Traditional Necklift: This is the classic approach, primarily focusing on the removal of excess skin that has lost its elasticity over time. Additionally, underlying muscles are tightened to provide a firm, contoured appearance to the neck. This procedure is ideal for those who wish to address sagging skin and achieve a more defined neckline.
- Liposuction: Specifically designed for targeting and eliminating excess fat deposits, this procedure is particularly effective for the area under the chin and the neck. It's an excellent option for individuals who have a good skin tone but struggle with localised fat pockets that don't respond to diet or exercise.
- Anterior Necklift: This technique involves a strategically placed incision under the chin, allowing Mr Aftab Ahmed to restructure and enhance the neck's overall shape. It's particularly beneficial for addressing issues like the 'turkey wattle' or prominent vertical neck bands, giving the neck a smoother and more youthful appearance.
- Extended Necklift: A more comprehensive approach, the Extended Necklift not only addresses the neck but also the lower face. It's often combined with a facelift to provide a harmonious rejuvenation. This procedure delves deeper, addressing the structural tissues of both the neck and the lower face, ensuring a seamless transition between the rejuvenated neck and the facial features.
Each of these procedures offers unique benefits, and the best approach is determined based on the individual's anatomy, aesthetic goals, and Mr Aftab Ahmed's expert recommendation.

What Happens During a Neck Lift?
A neck lift is a straightforward procedure designed to produce subtle yet impactful results. Here’s what you can expect:
Procedure Details:
- Pre-surgery consultations and preparations: Every patient's journey to a rejuvenated neck begins with an in-depth consultation with Mr Aftab Ahmed. During this session, he assesses the patient's unique needs, discusses their aesthetic goals, and recommends the most suitable Necklift procedure. Patients are also informed about necessary preparations leading up to the surgery. This may include dietary guidelines, pausing certain medications, and skincare routines to ensure the best possible results.
- The surgical process: The specific steps of the Necklift procedure vary based on the chosen method. However, in general, the surgery involves making discreet incisions, typically behind the ears and under the chin. Through these incisions, excess fat may be removed, muscles tightened, and skin repositioned to achieve a youthful contour. Mr Ahmed employs advanced techniques to ensure minimal scarring and natural-looking results.
- Duration and post-surgery care: The Necklift procedure typically lasts between two to four hours, depending on its complexity. Once the surgery is completed, patients are closely monitored in a recovery room. Before being discharged, they are provided with detailed post-operative care instructions. This includes guidelines on wound care, medications, activity restrictions, and follow-up appointments. Adhering to these instructions is crucial for a smooth recovery and achieving the desired aesthetic outcome.
Recovery and Side Effects:
- Expected recovery timeline and stages: The recovery from a Necklift is relatively swift, with most patients resuming normal activities within a few weeks.
- Common side effects: Common side effects include swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort, which gradually subside.
- Tips for post-surgery care: It's crucial to follow post-surgery care tips, such as keeping the head elevated and avoiding strenuous activities, to ensure a smooth recovery.
Necklift Costs:
The cost of a Necklift varies based on the specific procedure and individual needs. During the initial consultation, a detailed cost breakdown is provided, ensuring transparency and no hidden charges.

Is a Neck Lift Painful?
The procedure is performed under general anaesthetic, so you won’t feel any discomfort during surgery. Mild tightness or soreness is normal during recovery, but this can be managed with pain relief medication.
How Long Does It Take to Recover from a Neck Lift?
Most patients can resume normal activities within 10–14 days, with swelling and bruising improving significantly during this time. Full results typically appear over the following weeks as healing progresses.
Will There Be Scarring After a Neck Lift?
Incisions are strategically placed around the ears and under the chin to minimise visibility. Once healed, scars are discreet and often blend naturally with the skin.
Am I a Good Candidate for a Neck Lift?
A neck lift is ideal for individuals bothered by sagging skin, jowls, or wrinkles in the neck and jawline. During your consultation, Mr Ahmed will assess your concerns and determine if a neck lift is the right choice for you.
Are the Results of a Neck Lift Permanent?
While a neck lift provides long-lasting results, it cannot stop the natural ageing process. However, most patients enjoy their rejuvenated appearance for 10–15 years with proper skincare and a healthy lifestyle.
Are Neck Lifts Safe?
Yes, neck lifts are generally considered safe when performed by an experienced and qualified surgeon like Mr Aftab Ahmed. As with any surgical procedure, there are risks such as swelling, bruising, or infection, but these are typically rare and manageable. During your consultation, Mr Ahmed will thoroughly discuss any potential risks and ensure you’re fully informed before proceeding.
Can You Have a Neck Lift Without a Facelift?
Yes, a neck lift can be performed on its own to specifically address concerns such as sagging skin, muscle bands, or excess fat in the neck area. While some patients choose to combine a neck lift with a facelift for a more comprehensive rejuvenation, a standalone neck lift is an excellent choice for enhancing the neck and jawline.
