A graceful, firm neck is the foundation of a youthful profile. Coordinated by Monica Clinics, a VIP Neck Lift (Lower Rhytidectomy) is a powerful restorative surgery designed to safely eliminate loose skin, severe sagging, and excess fat (the “double chin”) at Turkey’s elite medical facilities, rewinding the clock on your appearance.
What is a Neck Lift?
A Neck Lift is a highly comprehensive surgical procedure meticulously tailored for patients exhibiting deep signs of aging around the jawline and neck. The delicate skin in this area is extremely susceptible to gravity. Sagging is not solely caused by natural aging; it can be heavily influenced by hereditary genetics, environmental stress, or experiencing massive weight loss at a young age.
It is crucial to understand that a neck lift is a restorative procedure. It does not alter your core facial identity or artificially “pull” your features; rather, when performed by the master surgeons in our network, it beautifully resets your appearance, allowing you to age naturally and gracefully from a much younger-looking starting point.
The “Decade Younger” Combination
While a neck lift yields dramatic results on its own—especially if the mid-facial skin remains elastic—most international patients choose to combine it with other facial surgeries to achieve a harmonious, full-face rejuvenation. When combined, these VIP procedures can literally make a person look a decade younger:
- Facelift (Rhytidectomy): To simultaneously tighten the mid and lower facial structures for seamless continuity.
- Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty): Reshaping aging, heavy eyes for a rested, energetic look.
- Autologous Fat Transfer: Utilizing your own purified body fat to restore lost volume in the cheeks and lips.
The Surgical Procedure: How is it Done?
During your free consultation, our medical advisors and contracted board-certified surgeons will rigorously analyze your specific anatomy to determine the most effective surgical approach.
The VIP Operation:
- Anesthesia: The procedure is safely performed under general anesthesia or deep intravenous sedation by elite anesthesiologists, ensuring a completely pain-free experience.
- The Incision & Lifting: The surgeon makes a very small, highly discreet incision directly under the chin (and sometimes naturally concealed behind the ears). The loose platysma muscle is tightened, and sagging skin is carefully lifted and secured.
- Addressing Fat vs. Skin: If the primary issue is the “double chin” (excess fat), advanced Vaser Liposuction is utilized. However, liposuction cannot cure loose skin. For severe skin laxity, surgical excision is absolutely necessary.
Crucial Preparation & VIP Recovery Rules
To ensure flawless, long-lasting results and to eliminate complication risks, Monica Clinics’ medical coordinators will require you to adhere strictly to the following protocols:
Before the Surgery (Preparation):
- Medication: You must stop taking Aspirin or any other blood-thinning medications at least one week prior to surgery to prevent severe bleeding.
- Smoking & Alcohol: Smoking drastically restricts blood flow, significantly slowing down wound healing and accelerating tissue necrosis. You must quit smoking completely before the surgery.
- Transportation: Due to anesthesia, you cannot drive. Monica Clinics provides exclusive VIP transfers from your luxury hotel directly to the JCI-accredited hospital and back.
After the Surgery (Recovery):
- Bandages & Water: Your doctor will safely remove your bandages and any surgical drains shortly after the operation. You must strictly follow hygiene instructions regarding water contact (showering).
- Swelling & Numbness: Swelling and bruising will peak by the second day but will rapidly fade. You may also experience temporary stiffness and numbness in your neck muscles, which is entirely normal. Keeping your head elevated is crucial.
- Physical Activity: While your incisions will be mostly healed by the second week, you must completely avoid heavy physical activity and strenuous sports until the fourth week.

Frequently Asked Questions About Neck Lifts
Yes, absolutely. A double chin is often a combination of excess submental fat and loose skin. During a neck lift, our contracted elite surgeons typically utilize a combination of liposuction (to remove the fat) and surgical tissue lifting (to remove the loose skin), completely redefining the jawline.
The results are incredibly long-lasting. While a neck lift permanently sets back the clock by removing the existing excess tissue, it cannot stop the natural biological aging process. Your neck will, however, always look younger than if you hadn’t had the surgery.
Our board-certified plastic surgeons use advanced techniques to ensure incisions are highly discreet. Scars are typically hidden entirely under the chin or concealed naturally behind the ears, fading significantly within a few months.
