Facelift and neck lift are cosmetic surgical procedures designed to address signs of aging in the face and neck. A facelift, also known as rhytidectomy, typically focuses on the lower two-thirds of the face, addressing sagging skin, wrinkles, and jowls. The procedure involves lifting and tightening the underlying facial muscles and repositioning the skin to create a more youthful appearance.

On the other hand, a neck lift specifically targets the neck area, addressing issues such as loose skin, excess fat, and muscle banding. The surgeon may remove excess skin, tighten muscles, and contour the neck to enhance its firmness and definition.

Both procedures are often performed together to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation. They are invasive surgeries that require anesthesia, and the recovery period can vary from several days to a few weeks.
