What a neck lift addresses
With age, the skin of the neck loosens, the platysma muscle can separate into visible vertical bands, and fat may collect under the chin, softening the jawline. A neck lift focuses on this area. Incisions are usually placed around and behind the ears and sometimes in a small crease under the chin, allowing Mr Nassab to tighten the muscle, remove or redistribute fat and redrape the skin. The procedure is described in full on the neck lift page.
What the neck lift fee covers
The fee starts from £12,500 and typically includes:
- Surgeon: planning and surgery by Mr Nassab.
- Anaesthetist: your consultant anaesthetist for the general anaesthetic.
- Hospital and theatre: surgery at Deansgate Hospital, Manchester, including theatre, nursing care and an overnight stay where needed.
- Dressings and support: head and neck dressings and a support garment for the early days.
- Routine follow-up: stitch removal and reviews as you heal.
Consultations are at CLNQ, Deansgate Square, Manchester, or CLNQ, King Street, Knutsford. The £150 consultation fee is not part of the surgical price. See the prices page for current fees.
Comparing neck lift, facelift and chin options
The right operation depends on where the ageing change sits:
- Chin FaceTite and liposuction, from £7,500: for fullness under the chin with good skin quality; a less invasive option that removes fat and tightens skin with radiofrequency energy.
- Neck lift, from £12,500: for loose neck skin and muscle bands when the cheeks and jowls are less of a concern.
- Facelift, from £14,500: for jowls and lower-face laxity, usually with some neck tightening. See the facelift cost guide.
- Deep plane face and neck lift, from £18,500: for more advanced laxity of the mid-face, jawline and neck treated together.
Treating the neck alone when the jowls also need attention can leave the face and neck looking mismatched, so Mr Nassab will explain honestly whether a neck lift on its own is the best fit.
What can change your quote
Your personal quote may be different if:
- Combined surgery: you add another procedure, such as eyelid surgery.
- Extent of work: significant fat beneath the muscle or prominent bands need more extensive work.
- Previous surgery: earlier neck or face surgery creates scar tissue.
- Length of stay: a longer hospital stay is advised.
Everything included is set out in your written quote after assessment.
Recovery timeline
Swelling and bruising are common for the first two weeks and the neck often feels tight. Sleeping with your head raised helps. Most people return to social activities after two to three weeks and avoid strenuous exercise for around four to six weeks. Scars behind the ears typically mature over twelve to eighteen months. A rapidly enlarging, tense swelling in the neck needs urgent contact with the surgical team, and fever or spreading redness should be reported the same day.
Who is suited
A neck lift is generally suited to healthy adults with neck laxity or banding who are not smokers, or who can stop before and after surgery, and whose weight is stable. Medical conditions such as high blood pressure are assessed carefully, as they affect bleeding risk. The results aim to be long-lasting, but the neck continues to age naturally. Cosmetic surgery is for adults aged 18 and over.
Finance and value
Finance may be available through Chrysalis Finance, subject to status. Reza Nassab Ltd is a credit broker, not a lender, and can introduce you to the finance provider, who makes its own lending decision. Facial surgery abroad is sometimes advertised at a lower price, but aftercare, stitch removal and managing any complication become difficult once you are home. A neck lift is precise work close to important nerves, and local follow-up is part of what you are paying for.
