Contact UsWhat Is a Central Neck Lift?
A central neck lift is a surgical procedure intended to improve the jawline for those with a prominent double chin or poorly defined neckline. Dr. Sean Delaney and Dr. Russell Kridel are the few surgeons in Houston, TX, performing this specialized neck lift. This procedure tightens the central section under your chin by removing the excess fat and tightening the underlying musculature to produce a smoother, natural neckline. Ideal candidates for a central neck lift are individuals in their 20s to 40s with a genetic predisposition for a double chin or a poorly defined jawline and good skin elasticity. The central neck lift is frequently combined with other procedures, such as chin augmentation and FaceTite/AccuTite radiofrequency skin tightening. A facelift procedure may be more appropriate for those with more facial and neck skin laxity.

How Is a Neck Lift Performed?
During a neck lift procedure, IV sedation or general anesthesia is used. An incision is placed in the crease under your chin. Two additional small incisions are placed behind each earlobe. Liposuction is performed initially through these incisions to sculpt the jawline. There is deeper fat in the midline that liposuction alone cannot address and this will be assessed and removed directly. Finally, your surgeon will modify the platysma muscle under your chin to improve neckline defintion. The procedure typically takes 1 to 1.5 hours.
Facial Plastic Surgery Associates Reviews
Dr. Kridel is a brilliant, compassionate surgeon (artist) who delivered the most natural appearance for my Sinuplasty-Rhinoplasty procedure. For decades every doctor i went to said ‘you have a deviated septum’. Honestly I put this surgery off for decades. There were a variety of reasons for the delay including recovery time, how I would look and which surgeon to select. I cannot thank Dr. Kridel & his staff & the nurses that took such good care of me. I have never breathed better in my life. The septum was approximately 90% closed. No one can believe I only had nose surgery. They swear I’ve had a facelift.! I sleep better. I feel better. I never have earaches anymore, and my eyes are as white as snow. I am a raving fan and am happy to give a 100% recommendation to Dr. Kridel & team. Sharon Williams Kirwan Houston, TX

Dr. Delaney is an excellent doctor. He performs any procedure so expertly the results are perfect. He has such a wonderful eye, the results never look artificial or exaggerated. The staff is great, too. A very pleasant office experience!
Best practice in Houston. Dr Delaney fixed my lip injections done at a med spa. He took time to set out realistic goals for future work I’d like done. I’ve seen Dr Kridel for years in the past and he’s the best of the best. You are in the best care under these doctors and staff.
I love coming to this practice. Dr. Delaney and his team are excellent. They listen to your goals and impart realistic advice, and the services they offer are top-notch. Their new location is beautiful.

Recovery
Immediately after surgery, patients can begin to see a more defined jawline with double chins reduced. A compressive wrap is placed for the first night after surgery. One the day after the procedure, you will be switched over to a facial sling, which you will wear all day for 1 week and in the evenings only for another week. It takes about a full week for the bruising and swelling to dissipate and can take several weeks for the final results to appear. There will be faint scars where the incision were made, but these are very small and will fade over time. After five days, you can return to work.
Protect Your Neck and Say Goodbye to A stubborn double chin
If you have a pronounced double chin or an obtuse neckline that you were born with, simple liposuction alone may not give you the neckline definition that you desire. The central neck lift is an excellent option for young patients who have good skin elasticity who wish to address their double chin.
