What Is a Neck Lift?
A neck lift is a surgical procedure that addresses the signs of aging in the neck, which can include sagging jowls and skin, excess fat, or banding. Dr. Daugherty will specifically design your neck lift to address your needs, improving:
- Muscle and skin laxity
- Jawline definition
- Double chin
- Wrinkles in the neck
- Muscle bands
What Is a Deep Plane Neck Lift?
A deep plane neck lift is an advanced surgical technique that goes further than tightening the superficial skin on the surface of the neck. The procedure achieves a smoother, more defined youthful-looking neck contour by addressing the underlying musculature, submental fat, deep tissues, and glands.
Deep plane neck lifts typically deliver longer-lasting, natural-looking results than more traditional methods. By creating better proportioned facial features, a deep plane neck lift can help balance the face.
A deep plane neck lift is ideal for patients who are concerned about visible scarring as it requires only one incision that is concealed in the natural crease beneath the chin. Dr. Daugherty utilizes this single incision to access the deeper layers of the neck to enhance and optimize your neck contours. She will re-drape the skin and use meticulous sutures to close the incision.
Complementary Procedures
Often, patients who are considering neck lifts or deep plane neck lifts are also concerned about the appearance of their mid- or upper-facial regions as well. You can choose other rejuvenation procedures to get simultaneously for full facial rejuvenation, including:
No matter what you’re seeking to improve, double board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Daugherty takes the time to listen and understand. She only recommends treatments and procedures that will help you achieve your desired aesthetic results.
What Are the Benefits of a Neck Lift or Deep Plane Neck Lift?
Typically, exercises cannot help the state of your neck. A neck lift rejuvenates your appearance in a way other body sculpting procedures don’t. Deep plane neck lifts deliver a sharper jawline appearance with natural-looking results by targeting deeper muscle layers, creating long-lasting results that are less likely to sag.
In tightening the appearance of your neck, you can refresh the outline of your jawline and chin to create a sleeker, slimmer, more youthful profile. Following your neck lift or deep plane neck lift, you may experience long-lasting results and:
- Slimmer facial profile
- More youthful appearance
- Tightened skin
Often, Dr. Daugherty completes facelifts, brow lifts, and eyelid surgeries alongside a neck lift or deep plane neck lift for full facial rejuvenation. Visit our gallery for before and after neck lift and deep plane neck lift results.

FAQ
Baton Rouge, LA, Neck Lift
Neck lift or deep plane neck lift cost in Louisiana is determined by your individual needs and desired results. Following your consultation, Dr. Daugherty will give you a breakdown of the cost of your neck lift.
Following your neck lift or deep plane neck lift procedure, you will experience swelling and bruising that may last for a couple of weeks. You can expect to feel well enough to return to your typical routine a week to 10 days following your procedure. Minor swelling may persist for several months; however, most people resume their usual activities by a month post-procedure.
Depending on your procedural plan, Dr. Daugherty creates well-concealed incisions behind the ear, posterior hairline, or chin. Through these, she will lift your neck muscles, remove excess skin and fat, and redefine your jawline and chin. Neck lift and deep plane neck lift scars are initially pink but typically, they fade within a year.
In addition to neck lift surgery, Dr. Daugherty also specializes in other facial rejuvenation procedures, including brow lifts, eyelid lifts, and facelifts.
All patients have unique needs, so Dr. Daugherty takes a personalized approach to determine the necessary techniques for each procedure. In the majority of patients, she performs a deep plane neck lift or deep structural neck lift. These lifts address structures below the platysma muscle that obscure the jawline like deep fat, muscle, and submandibular salivary glands that tend to sag as we age.
While compression dressings and chin straps might be a minor annoyance, they help minimize swelling and allow your body to adjust to its new contours. Without compression dressings, swelling may persist longer than necessary.
