Neck Lift in Dubai
Neck lift surgery targets sagging skin, excess fat, and loss of definition in the neck area to restore a smooth, youthful, and naturally contoured neckline
Neck Lift Sculpt and Rejuvenate Your Neck for a Youthful Profile
What Is a Neck Lift?
A neck lift in Dubai — also known as platysmaplasty or cervicoplasty — is a surgical procedure designed to tighten loose neck skin, remove excess fat, and address neck bands (platysma muscle laxity) that create a ‘turkey neck’ appearance. Over time, ageing, genetics, and weight fluctuations can lead to sagging, loss of jawline definition, and vertical neck banding that make the neck look older than the face.
Neck lift is a specialized cosmetic procedure designed to tighten loose skin, remove excess fat, and restore a youthful contour to the neck and jawline. Over time, aging, genetics, and lifestyle factors can lead to sagging, double chin, and loss of definition between the jaw and neck.
The procedure carefully lifts and repositions underlying muscles, trims excess skin, and addresses fat deposits for a smooth, natural, and proportionate neck. Unlike non-surgical treatments, a neck lift provides precise, long-lasting results that enhance overall facial harmony.

Types of Neck Lift in Dubai
At Cocoona, the surgical approach is tailored to your specific concerns and degree of neck laxity:
- Cervicoplasty (Skin-Only Neck Lift)
Removes excess loose skin from the neck without addressing underlying muscles. Best for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity and minimal muscle banding. - Platysmaplasty (Muscle Neck Lift)
Addresses the platysma muscles beneath the neck skin — the primary cause of vertical neck bands and turkey neck. The muscles are tightened and repositioned to restore smooth, youthful contours. Often combined with cervicoplasty. - Neck Lift with Liposuction
Combines platysma muscle tightening and skin removal with liposuction of submental fat (under the chin) for comprehensive lower facial and neck rejuvenation. - Combined Face and Neck Lift
The most comprehensive option. Face lift and neck lift performed together to address ageing across the entire lower face, jawline, and neck in a single procedure and single recovery period.
Areas Treated
it targets:
- Sagging skin along the neck
- Excess fat (double chin or jowls)
- Loss of jawline definition
- Platysma muscle bands
- Submental area under the chin
Treating these areas together creates a smooth, youthful contour and improved neck-to-chin definition.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Neck Lift?

Neck Lift Recovery Timeline
Days 1–3: Swelling, bruising, and tightness across the neck and jaw. A compression bandage or garment is worn. Rest at home with head elevated. Avoid turning the neck sharply.
Days 4–7: Bruising begins to fade. Compression may be replaced with a lighter support garment. Light daily activities around the home can be resumed. Most patients feel significantly more comfortable.
Weeks 2–3: Most patients return to desk-based work and social activities. Swelling reduces noticeably. Neck and jawline contours become clearly visible.
Weeks 4–6: Light exercise can be resumed. Avoid heavy lifting and strenuous activity. Neck contours continue to refine and settle.
Months 3–6: Final results fully visible as all residual swelling resolves. Neck appears smooth, firm, and naturally contoured.
Long term: Neck lift results typically last 5 to 10 years. Natural ageing continues but the improvement remains significant. Healthy lifestyle and sun protection help maintain results longer.
