Is there a non surgical alternative to a neck lift?

These range from fillers and injectables to simple laser surgery under local anaesthesia and Ultherapy.

Although these methods are less invasive, they are not as effective and results do not last as long as surgical intervention.

Can neck skin be tightened without surgery?

It is possible to tighten neck skin without surgery. Ultherapy tightens the skin and can help avoid the need for a surgical neck lift altogether.

Ultherapy uses micro-focused ultrasound to lift up and tighten loose skin. This treatment works by using ultrasound to stimulate the growth and formation of new collagen deep inside the layers of skin. This non-invasive procedure uses ultrasound to stimulate the growth and formation of new collagen deep inside the layers of the skin.

Neck lift without surgery results won’t be immediate, as new collagen takes time to produce. The patient will require several sessions over the course of a few months.

Neck lift without surgery is not without its drawback however, and the surgical alternative will always produce faster, more permanent results.

What is the best non invasive skin tightening treatment?

We would recommend Ultherapy as an effective non-invasive skin tightening treatment.

Described as a facelift without the surgery, Ultherapy is a non-surgical face and neck treatment that uses ultrasound to lift, tighten and tone loose skin naturally. This highly-effective treatment can be used to target loose skin on the neck, under the chin and on the brow. This will help the patient to achieve a fresher, more youthful appearance. Ultherapy is also a great way to improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the décolleté - the area of skin above the chest which shows when a woman is wearing a low neckline which is often overlooked in many a beauty regimen.

The surface of the skin is not cut or affected in any way by Ultherapy treatment. After the procedure, the patient can carry on with their daily routine and there is no specific aftercare advice to follow.

Ultherapy is often chosen as a precursor or alternative to face or neck lift surgery, or employed to maintain the results post surgery. It can take a while for the results to show, although some patients can see a difference immediately, and most patients will need to have more than one session of Ultherapy in order for it to be effective.

We carry out Ultherapy here at the Cadogan Clinic. While we recommend this treatment as a non-invasive, non-surgical alternative to a neck lift, surgery always produces longer-lasting, and more effective, results.

Why are surgical alternatives generally recommended at the Cadogan Clinic?

Here at the Cadogan Clinic, we generally recommend surgical alternatives because these can deliver more effective, long-lasting, if not permanent, results than non-surgical treatments.

However we appreciate everyone is different and anyone who is interested in any treatment, surgical and non-surgical, is welcome to make an appointment with one of our expert surgeons to discuss all the available options.
