Treatment overview
What this treatment can — and cannot — do.
At Dr Hammad Aesthetic, the neck-lift component is not performed as a standalone operation. It is offered only together with a facelift when assessment shows that facial and neck laxity should be treated in one combined surgical plan.
Goal Improve neck and jawline contour when lax skin or deeper tissue descent is the main concern. Improve neck and jawline contour when lax skin or deeper tissue descent is the main concern.

Who may benefit
Who may benefit — and what we assess first.
Adults with facial and neck laxity who may benefit from a combined facelift + neck-lift plan and who are medically suitable for surgery.
Potential fit When Facelift + Neck Lift may make sense
Facelift + Neck Lift may be suitable for adults with meaningful neck laxity who are medically suitable and understand surgical scars and recovery. Suitability also depends on medical history, examination and realistic expectations.
Realistic expectations What Facelift + Neck Lift cannot promise
A combined facelift + neck lift does not stop ageing. Isolated double-chin fat is assessed separately because liposuction addresses a different concern.
Treatment pathway
A clear plan from assessment to follow-up.
Face, jawline, neck, skin and submental-fat assessment followed by an individualized surgical plan.
01 Assessment Assess skin laxity, jawline, neck bands, submental fat and facial balance.
02 Planning Confirm whether the concern is suitable for the clinic’s combined facelift + neck-lift approach and whether any additional contouring is appropriate.
03 Treatment Perform the facelift together with the planned neck correction as one combined operation.
04 Follow-up Review wounds, swelling and return to normal activity in stages.
Recovery & expectations
Recovery, downtime and what to expect.

Progress Judge the result at the right time Swelling and healing can temporarily distort the early appearance, so final assessment should follow the treatment-specific healing timeline.
Long term Maintain realistic expectations A combined facelift + neck lift does not stop ageing. Isolated double-chin fat is assessed separately because liposuction addresses a different concern.
