Achieve Sharper, More
Masculine Contours
As men age, the neck often shows some of the earliest and most noticeable signs of aging. The skin may loosen, the platysma neck muscle can separate into visible vertical bands, and fat may accumulate under the chin. Factors like genetics, weight changes, and natural aging can further contribute to a loss of contour in the cervicomental angle, the critical junction between the chin and neck, making the lower face appear heavier or less sculpted. The male necklift is a procedure tailored specifically to address these concerns while preserving distinctly masculine features. Dr. Isaacs uses advanced deep-plane techniques to correct both surface and structural aging. His approach tightens the platysma muscle and redefines the jawline through discreet incisions placed under the chin or around the ears. The result is a sharper, stronger neck contour that appears natural without being overly feminine.
Male Necklift Treats:
- Sagging or loose neck skin that obscures definition
- Excess fat beneath the chin, creating a “double chin”
- Prominent vertical neck bands caused by platysma laxity
- A blunted or poorly defined cervicomental angle
- Loss of sharp jawline contours due to aging or weight loss
What Makes a Male Necklift Different?
Overview
A male necklift is not simply a version of the traditional necklift but specifically curated to meet the anatomical and aesthetic needs of men. Dr. Isaacs applies a highly individualized approach that enhances masculine features while avoiding signs of surgical alteration.
Masculine Anatomy
Men typically have thicker skin, more fibrous tissue, and a stronger underlying muscle structure than women. Dr. Isaacs accounts for these differences to avoid overcorrection and ensure the final result maintains a natural, rugged look. By enhancing the cervicomental angle and refining the jawline, the goal is to restore a youthful yet masculine contour.
Incision Placement
To suit men’s shorter hairstyles and facial hair patterns, the incisions are strategically placed under the chin, behind or around the ears, or sometimes only along the front of the neck in a direct approach. These carefully selected locations ensure minimal visibility while allowing optimal access for submental sculpting and tightening.
Natural Results
Rather than lifting tissues above the jawline, which can result in an unnatural or feminized appearance, Dr. Isaacs uses advanced deep-plane techniques to target the deeper structures of the neck. This enables long-lasting improvements while preserving natural movement, skin texture, and anatomical integrity. The result is a balanced and distinctly masculine jawline.
Dr. Isaacs’ Approach to Male Necklift Surgery
Dr. Isaacs offers a specialized technique called the modified direct necklift, ideal for men seeking dramatic neck contouring without altering the upper face. This is especially beneficial if you have skin laxity, thick neck bands, or excess fat under the chin. Rather than using traditional ear-to-ear incisions, Dr. Isaacs places a precise vertical incision along the front of your neck, allowing direct access to the underlying structures while minimizing visible scarring.
During surgery, Dr. Isaacs removes excess fat and skin, then tightens the platysma muscle to restore strong, masculine contours. His technique is carefully tailored to your anatomy, ensuring natural proportions and a sharper cervicomental angle. By avoiding excessive skin pulling or unnatural tension, the result is a defined, youthful neck that looks refined and masculine.
