Should Facelift and Neck Lift Be Combined?


Facelift with neck lift in Montreal

Frustrated by sagging skin along your jawline and neck? When your reflection doesn’t match the energy you feel inside, it’s hard to ignore. A facelift or neck lift can turn back the clock. But, pairing them together? That’s where real transformation happens. 

Dr. Arie Benchetrit, one of Fashion Magazine’s Top Plastic Surgeons, has performed thousands of face and body surgeries over more than three decades in practice. With prestigious plastic and general surgery certifications from the Royal College of Surgeons of Canada, Dr. Benchetrit has a deep knowledge of facial anatomy and unique patient needs to ensure beautiful, natural-looking results.  

In today’s blog, we delve into one of our patients’ questions: Should I have a facelift and a neck lift simultaneously? 

Facelift Benefits Explained  

A facelift removes sagging skin, smooths deep wrinkles away, and repairs weak or damaged facial muscles. In a facelift, Dr. Benchetrit focuses on the lower two-thirds of the face. The surgery provides enhanced definition and firmness around your cheeks, jawline, and mouth areas.  

Why a Neck Lift Matters  

A neck lift focuses below your jawline and down to the bottom of the neck. Loose skin, visible bands of skin (platysmal bands,) and extra fat under the chin can make you look older. 

Dr. Benchetrit creates a beautifully defined, youthful neckline by removing drooping skin, tightening the remaining skin, and strengthening weakened neck muscles. The surgery can help your face and neck look slimmer and more defined.  

Benefits of Combining Facelift and Neck Lift  

Combining these two procedures provides several advantages:  

  • Comprehensive Rejuvenation: Your face and neck will match, looking equally rejuvenated and youthful.  
  • One Recovery: Having the two procedures together means only one recovery period. 
  • Consistent Aging: If you have the two procedures at different times, your face and neck will age at different rates. Combining surgery provides appearance consistency over time, preventing a refreshed-looking face with a sagging neck or vice-versa. 
  • Cost Efficiency: With one surgery, you save on facility fees compared to separate operations.  

Dr. Benchetrit’s meticulous techniques consistently provide natural-looking outcomes. 

Are Combined Procedures Right for You?  

During your consultation, Dr. Benchetrit examines your facial anatomy and skin condition (particularly the amount of skin elasticity you have.) Our team always takes the time to understand your goals for surgery so Dr. Benchetrit can customize an ideal approach.  

In general, patients with significant facial and neck aging usually benefit greatly from this dual approach.
