Our Neck Lift procedure, led by the skilled hands of Dr. Regina Rodman, offers a transformative experience to enhance the appearance of your neck. Located in Houston, TX, our clinic combines cutting-edge technology with personalized care to achieve your aesthetic goals.
Understanding the Procedure
A Neck Lift is a surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate the neck and jawline by tightening loose muscles, removing excess fat, and smoothing sagging skin. This restores youthful definition and creates a balanced, natural contour between the chin and neckline.
During the Neck Lift procedure, Dr. Regina Rodman may remove excess skin, tighten underlying muscles that have become lax, and perform liposuction to sculpt the area and remove unwanted fat. By addressing both the skin and deeper tissue layers, she achieves natural-looking, long-lasting results tailored to each patient’s anatomy.
At Face Forward Houston, our approach combines precision and artistry to enhance facial harmony while maintaining a refined, graceful profile. Every Neck Lift is personalized to complement the patient’s overall features and restore confidence with results that look beautifully natural.
With a Neck Lift Houston patients can enjoy numerous benefits, including:
If you are bothered by wrinkles, sagging skin, or excess fat in the neck area, you may be an ideal candidate for a Neck Lift. During the consultation, Houston Neck Lift expert, Dr. Rodman, will assess your concerns and medical history to determine eligibility. Contraindications, if any, will be discussed, ensuring that the treatment aligns with your health and aesthetic goals.
When you have a consultation with Dr. Rodman, she will take the time to discuss your goals and expectations for the Neck Lift procedure.
She will also assess your anatomy to determine the best approach for achieving your desired results. In addition, Dr. Rodman will provide a detailed explanation of the procedure, including any potential risks and complications, to ensure that you are fully informed before making any decisions. For a smooth and successful treatment, you may be asked to avoid certain medications before the procedure and follow specific pre-operative instructions provided by our experienced team.
This may include avoiding aspirin and other blood-thinning medications, quitting smoking, and staying hydrated. Our team will provide you with all the necessary information and guidance to help you prepare for the procedure and achieve optimal results.
If you are seeking to enhance the results of your Neck Lift procedure, you might consider submental liposuction. This additional step targets the stubborn fat under the chin area that can be difficult to get rid of through diet and exercise alone. Submental liposuction can help remove excess fat and create a more defined and youthful appearance. Discuss your goals and expectations with a qualified surgeon to determine if submental liposuction would be a beneficial option for you.
During the Neck Lift procedure, typically performed under anesthesia, Dr. Rodman will make incisions in strategic locations to access the underlying tissues. This will enable her to remove excess skin, tighten the muscles, and address any specific concerns you may have. For example, if you have a double chin, Dr. Rodman can remove the excess fat and tighten the skin to give you a more defined jawline. Alternatively, if you have loose skin on your neck, she can remove it and reposition the remaining skin to give you a smoother, more youthful appearance. The length of the procedure may vary depending on the extent of correction desired, but Dr. Rodman will take all the time necessary to ensure that you achieve the best possible results. Throughout the procedure, your comfort will be a top priority, and you can rest assured that you will be in capable hands.
Following a Neck Lift, patients can expect mild swelling, tightness, or bruising during the first week. Most individuals return to light activities within 10–14 days, with visible improvement continuing over several months as tissues settle. Our team provides detailed aftercare instructions to support smooth healing and minimize visible scarring.
Temporary numbness and firmness are normal as the neck adapts to its new contour. Final results gradually emerge as swelling resolves, revealing a smoother, firmer, and more youthful neck profile. We recommend avoiding strenuous exercise until cleared by Dr. Rodman to ensure optimal recovery.
You can expect initial results to become visible as swelling subsides, with the full outcome becoming apparent over time. Recovery involves following post-operative care instructions, avoiding strenuous activities, and taking prescribed medications. Proper incision care is crucial for scar prevention, and you are advised to maintain results through a healthy lifestyle and skincare routine.
At our practice in Houston Neck Lift is a safe and effective procedure when performed by a qualified facial plastic surgeon. However, as with all surgeries, there are potential risks, including temporary swelling, bruising, or numbness. In rare cases, infection, bleeding, or asymmetry may occur.
Dr. Rodman and her team take every precaution to minimize these risks through meticulous technique and comprehensive pre- and post-operative care. Patients receive clear recovery instructions, and follow-up appointments ensure that healing progresses safely and comfortably.
Many patients combine a Neck Lift with complementary facial procedures to enhance balance and achieve comprehensive rejuvenation. These may include:
Combining procedures allows for more harmonious results and can reduce total recovery time compared to having multiple surgeries separately.

Discomfort after a Neck Lift is generally mild and well managed with prescribed medication. Most patients report tightness or tenderness that improves significantly within the first week.
While most patients are between 40 and 60, there is no “ideal” age. Younger individuals with early neck laxity or fullness may also benefit. Suitability depends on anatomy and overall health, not age alone.
Yes. Many men choose a Neck Lift to refine their jawline and eliminate sagging skin while maintaining a masculine, natural look. Incisions are discreetly placed for minimal visibility.
Incisions are placed strategically along natural creases or beneath the chin, where they are barely noticeable once healed. With proper care and sun protection, scars fade to near invisibility over time.
