Although a neck lift is considered to be the most effective procedure to tighten the skin on the neck, there are now an increasing number of non-surgical alternatives to a neck lift that do not involve the incisions and scars of neck lift surgery. We offer a range of effective skin tightening treatments to improve the appearance of an ageing neck, including dermal fillers, laser skin tightening and Morpheus8. Although non-invasive neck tightening treatments do not involve the same risks as surgery, they have not been shown to be as effective as a neck lift, and the results of treatment cannot match that possible with a surgical neck lift.
Is it possible to tighten neck skin with non-surgical treatments?
Centre for Surgery offers the most effective non-invasive skin tightening treatments which are commonly used to tighten neck skin without surgery. Morpheus8 can produce impressive skin tightening effects and, in some cases, can eliminate the requirement for neck lift surgery in the future.
RE:ATED: What is Morpheus8 Face?
Morpheus8 is a combination of microneedling and radio-frequency to tighten and lift sagging skin affecting the neck. The principal behind Morpheus8 is the tiny micro-needles which emit radio frequency energy which helps to kickstart the production of new collagen within the deeper layers of the dermis. Morpheus8 is a non-invasive procedure which can be used to tighten the neck skin and can produce more effective results compared with laser resurfacing.
Achieving a neck lift without surgery produces results that will take time to appear as the process of new collagen production needs time to take effect. Patients will require between 2 to 3 sessions of Morpheus8 to achieve significant anti-ageing effects.
A neck lift without surgery does carry certain disadvantages in that the results are not as dramatic as that achievable with a surgical neck lift. Neck lift surgery is a ‘one and done’ procedure with results that are visible immediately, and that will last for many years as long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle.
What are the best non-surgical skin tightening treatments for an ageing neck?
Here at Centre for Surgery, our aesthetic practitioners have significant experience with Morpheus8, and this has now become our first-line treatment for non-invasive skin tightening of the neck. Morpheus8 is often regarded by our practitioners as a nonsurgical facelift. Achieving a facelift without surgery is possible with Morpheus8. Morpheus8 utilises a combination of radio frequency energy and microneedling to tighten loose skin affecting the neck to achieve a lifting effect. The treatment can be used on all parts of the face and neck to get rid of loose skin. The neck is one of the first places to show signs of ageing, and Morpheus8 can be used to eliminate loose skin on the neck and beneath the chin. Patients can expect to look younger and more refreshed, and others commonly notice this. Morpheus8 is also fantastic for softening fine lines and wrinkles affecting the upper chest, which often develops sun damage in women who commonly wear tops which have low necklines. Morpheus8 does not involve any incisions and is not a surgical procedure. Once the procedure has been completed, patients can return to their normal daily routine immediately, and there are no specialised after-care instructions to adhere to.

Many patients may be unwilling to have invasive facelift or neck lift surgery, and Morpheus8 is considered to be a useful alternative for patients reluctant to undergo surgery. In other cases, the patient may choose to have Morpheus8 as an initial anti-ageing treatment before undergoing neck lift surgery in the future. The versatility of Morpheus8 is further enhanced by its ability to be used after a surgical neck lift to enhance the results of surgery. Although Morpheus8 results do not appear immediately, some patients may notice a significant improvement straight away. Optimum results are achieved when patients complete a course of Morpheus8 treatments at our state-of-the-art clinic in London.

Here at Centre for Surgery, we are considered the leading experts in London for Morpheus8 treatment, with hundreds of procedures carried out each year. The treatment has proven to be revolutionary, and we recommend having Morpheus8 as a non-surgical alternative to a neck lift. It is important to bear in mind that a surgical neck lift will produce more effective results that last in excess of 5 to 10 years, depending on the individual.
Why have a neck lift at Centre for Surgery?
Centre for Surgery is recognised as one of the leading cosmetic surgery clinics in London. Our treatment philosophy is based on recommending treatments that deliver highly effective and long-lasting results. As with facelift surgery, a surgical neck lift is designed to produce results that can last in excess of 5 to 10 years which far exceeds that achievable with non-invasive treatment such as Morpheus8.
Surgery is not for everyone, however, as people may be unable to accept the recovery time frame after neck lift surgery. Many patients may prefer non surgical treatment and achieve a modest improvement without the risks of invasive surgery. Whatever your preferences, we would recommend scheduling an appointment with an expert consultant plastic surgeon at our Baker Street clinic for a detailed discussion of all the potential treatment options available.
