Neck Lift Surgery in Tucson

The face is usually the first thing people notice, but the neck can also affect your overall appearance. The neck area often gives away age faster than the face. The neck can also make the face look rounder or thinner, depending on its set. A thickset neck can make you look more muscular or chubbier while a thinner set neck can make you look slimmer or leaner. In Tucson, Arizona, neck lift surgery can create an entirely new look for patients. From removing extra skin after weight loss to removing unwanted fat, a neck lift can make a dramatic difference.
