Neck Lift in Fredericksburg, VA
What Is A Neck Lift?
Are you tired of wearing turtlenecks or scarves the whole year to conceal the loose flaps of skin on your neck? Plastic surgeons Dr. Howard Heppe, Dr. Harold Bautista, and Dr. Pejman Aflaki perform neck lift surgery at their Fredericksburg, VA practice to reduce the appearance of an aging neckline. This facial surgery tightens the section under your chin and along the neck to remove the loose skin that creates a "turkey neck" or "double chin." By removing loose skin and fat while introducing a tightening method to produce a softer neckline, this procedure at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg can provide striking improvements to your profile. Before you call to schedule your initial consultation, read more about surgical neck lifts and the beautiful results they can create.
How is a Neck Lift Performed?
During neck lift treatment, anesthesia is used. An incision is placed just in front or behind your ears, and another might be created beneath your chin. If pockets of fat exist, liposuction of the neck would be the first step in the surgical process. Next, any sagging, loose, or hanging skin will be carefully excised, and the remaining skin will be pulled tight. This tightening method is performed until the desired shape and contour have been achieved. Although sutures are placed at the incision area, scars should not be visible since they are located beneath your chin. A nonsurgical fat reduction injection, such as KYBELLA®, may also be used to complement the results. Also, other nonsurgical options can help the skin's texture and surface, such as laser, peel, or IPL treatments, to create a soft and smooth appearance.
What Are the Benefits of a Neck Lift?
Patients in Fredericksburg, VA who may be debating having a neck lift should think about some upsides of this surgery, including:
- Smooths out skin that creases and gathers under the jaw
- Minimally invasive procedure that provides just a trivial amount of scarring
- Quick recovery timeframe that allows you to return to your everyday routine fairly swiftly

Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg Reviews
On August 21st I under went surgery, tummy tuck and lipo 360… I did a lot of research and decided to go with Dr. Aflaki, I followed him on social media and looked out for reviews from other patients of his, for about 6 months before deciding to go forward. I was always amazed at his work and I am very happy I chose him…Dr. Aflaki was very professional, he went over so much with me that I never felt in the dark. I went into surgery very confidently having him as my Dr. He is also pleasant to be around, check ups always went very smooth, always felt comfortable and take care of. His staff was also wonderful to me and made sure my caretaker knew everything he needed to know to care for me after surgery. I am overall very happy with the outcome! My results are amazing! My pre-surgery video was taken Aug 21st, the morning of surgery. My post-surgery photo was taken 2 months and 2 weeks. I feel great, physically and mentally!! Thank you so much Dr. Aflaki and his team at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg!
When researching doctors for my rhinoplasty. I visited with a couple of different plastic surgeons that specialize in rhinoplasties but Dr. Aflaki was the obvious choice from the first consult. He took his time explaining everything and removing all doubts about the procedure which made me feel incredibly relieved and more confident to move forward. I ended up having a rhinoplasty and the procedure itself was so much easier than I could have imagined. Recovery was a breeze and painless. which was surprising. I closely followed instructions from Dr.Aflaki everything went really smoothly. I was already feeling like myself after a few days. I’m just over 2 months post-op and am incredibly happy with the results. Dr. Aflaki is an amazing Dr. The changes to my appearance are exactly what I wanted and what we discussed during the consult. I been checking with him for two moths I can I sure you you are in good hands If choose you Dr. Aflaki!
Dr. Bautista is the Only One I Trust. - Dr. Bautista did my breast augmentation surgery in 2005, and I was extremely pleased with the results. I decided to go back to him in 2024 to have my breasts redone, since they were almost 20 years old. I had no issues with them, but I wanted to go a little bigger and Dr. Bautista is the only one I trust to do the surgery. In fact, I even followed up my breast surgery with cool sculpting and am very pleased with the those results as well. He and his staff are extremely professional and very pleasant to work with. I highly recommend him for any cosmetic needs you may have.
Procedure changed my life - Dr Heppe transferred body fat into my aging hands. He made sure I wasn’t in any pain, did it expediently and recovery was easy. I’m one hundred percent satisfied. I no longer feel the need to hide my “ugly old hand”. I am now feeling confident and free. Great job Dr. Heppe! Thank you.
My experience with Dr. Aflaki and everyone at Plastic Surgery Services of Fredericksburg has been nothing short of amazing! From consultation to post-operative follow-ups, I have been in the very best hands. I am extremely pleased with my healing, recovery and results! Thank you, Dr. Aflaki, for changing my life!

How much does a neck lift cost?

If you have concerns about an undefined jawline or a weak chin, our team can help create a plan that addresses all your aesthetic goals.
Should I get a neck lift or liposuction?
