What is the difference between a neck lift and neck liposuction?
A neck lift primarily addresses excess skin, muscle, and fat, while neck liposuction specifically targets and removes excess fat beneath the chin and along the jawline.

Neck lift and neck liposuction are procedures that target excess fat and sagging skin in the neck area. Dr. Snider, a board-certified plastic surgeon and devoted mom, specializes in these techniques, ensuring her patients achieve natural-looking results with precision and care.
Neck Lift: Tighten Your Turkey Neck & Correct Jowls
A neck lift is a procedure that addresses various concerns related to the neck area, including loose or sagging skin, excess fat deposits, and prominent muscle bands. As individuals age, the skin loses elasticity, and underlying tissues weaken, leading to the development of wrinkles, jowls, and the dreaded “turkey neck” appearance. Neck lift surgery tightens the skin and underlying muscles, creating a more defined jawline and smoother neck contour.
During a neck lift in Plano, Dr. Snider removes excess skin and fat, tightens underlying muscles, and repositions tissues to achieve a more youthful and harmonious neck profile. This surgery is tailored to each patient’s unique anatomy and aesthetic goals, ensuring natural-looking results that enhance facial harmony and rejuvenate the overall appearance. With Dr. Snider’s expertise, you can confidently achieve a revitalized and more youthful neck contour.
Neck Lift Treats:
- Sagging or loose skin in the neck area
- Prominent muscle bands (platysma bands)
- Wrinkles and creases on the neck
- Loss of definition in the jawline due to aging
- Jowls or a “turkey neck” appearance
- Overall lack of neck contour and definition
Neck Liposuction: Remove Excess Fat Deposits
Neck liposuction is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that removes excess fat deposits from the neck and jawline to improve contour and definition. Unlike a neck lift, which addresses both excess skin and fat as well as muscle tightening, neck liposuction specifically targets stubborn pockets of fat that contribute to a double chin or lack of jawline definition. It is an ideal option for individuals with good skin elasticity but bothersome fat deposits beneath the chin.
During neck liposuction, Dr. Snider uses a small cannula to suction out unwanted fat, sculpting the neck and jawline to create a more refined and youthful appearance. This procedure typically requires only small incisions, resulting in minimal scarring and a shorter recovery compared to more invasive surgeries. Neck liposuction can be performed alone or in conjunction with a neck lift in Plano or other facial procedures to achieve comprehensive results.
Neck Liposuction Treats:
- Excess fat beneath the chin (double chin)
- Lack of jawline definition due to fat accumulation
- Unwanted fullness or bulkiness in the neck area
- Submental fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise

Patient Testimonial
“Dr. Snider is outstanding! I am 49 years old and was unhappy with the extra skin on my neck and lower face. I went to Dr. Snider and she explained all of my options. For the best results she recommended a lower face lift and neck lift. The result were tremendous. I could not be happier. My biggest fear was to look like I was “pulled too tight”. Dr. Snider assures me the results would be very natural. She did not disappoint. My friends keep telling me how good I look but can’t really understand why. Just like I wanted. Dr. Snider is meticulous, a perfectionist and listened to my goals. She will not disappoint.”
