Neck Lifting Surgery
By lifting sagging and drooping neck skin, this procedure creates a firmer, smoother neck line.
As the neck sags, it can make one appear older. By lifting loosened neck muscles and skin tissue, this procedure addresses concerns related to wrinkles and loss of elasticity.
What Is a Neck Lifting Surgery?
The muscles beneath the chin and neck (platysma muscle) may sag due to aging. This sagging can lead to neck laxity and wrinkles, making corrective treatment necessary.
AB carefully analyzes the causes of neck wrinkles and the condition of the skin, then establishes a tailored treatment plan to perform a customized surgical procedure for each patient.
1. Incision Behind the Ear
A minimal incision is made behind the ear. The loosened platysma muscle and subcutaneous fat layer are carefully dissected, lifted, and secured. Excess sagging skin is then removed, and the incision is sutured to complete the procedure.
If necessary, tightening of the platysma muscle, fat removal, or salivary gland reduction may be performed together to address the underlying causes of a double chin. This comprehensive approach helps reduce the likelihood of recurrence. Incisions are made along the hairline, making scars less noticeable.

Powerful Lifting Effect
By lifting three layers—the fascial layer, fat layer, and dermal layer—the surface area of lifted skin is expanded, maximizing the overall improvement effect.
Minimally Visible Scarring
Incisions are made along the hairline behind the ear, in discreet locations that help keep scars inconspicuous.
2. Double Chin Muscle Tightening
In cases where liposuction alone does not provide sufficient improvement, subcutaneous fat is removed through liposuction, and deeper fat beneath the platysma muscle is also excised. The loosened platysma muscle is then tightened and secured.
This procedure addresses the root cause of a double chin, allowing for more definitive and long-lasting improvement.
Removal of Fat Beneath the Platysma Muscle
Fat located beneath the platysma muscle, which cannot be removed through liposuction alone, can be excised when necessary to achieve more definitive improvement of a double chin.
Improvement of Weak Submental Muscles
In cases where weak muscles beneath the chin cause loss of jawline definition, this procedure strengthens and corrects the underlying muscles, helping to create a slimmer, well-defined jawline with reduced risk of recurrence.
Preoperative CT and Ultrasound Imaging
CT scans and ultrasound examinations are performed prior to surgery to precisely analyze the location and size of the salivary glands. When necessary, a carefully planned, customized salivary gland reduction procedure is performed.
Salivary Gland Reduction If Necessary
If salivary gland reduction is required for double chin correction, AB Clinic utilizes specialized, advanced salivary gland surgical equipment to ensure a safer and more precise procedure.

Frequently Asked Question about Lifting
For those in their 20s–30s, effective facial lifting procedures include high-frequency laser treatments, fillers, and Botox, which are recommended for early prevention and maintenance. For those in their 30s–40s, both non-surgical treatments (like thread lifting or semi-facelift) and surgical lifting methods are recommended depending on the degree of sagging. For those over 40, more surgical methods such as semi-facelift or full facelift are often advised, depending on the severity of skin laxity.
