Neck Lift & Neck Tightening
Conveniently located to serve Boston, Cambridge, Peabody, and Manchester
For patients that are unhappy with the appearance of their neck, but are not in need of a full face lift, Dr. Anoush Hadeagh offers a neck lift. The neck lift procedure creates a rejuvenated, smooth contour of the neck by lifting the jowls, removing unwanted fat, and tightening the loose bands in the neck that create sagging of the skin. The goal of the neck lift procedure is to provide a refreshed, more youthful, but natural look.
