A neck lift is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the neck and jawline to give patients a smooth, youthful appearance.
Just like our hands, our neck can easily give away our age. Neck lift surgery targets multiple signs of aging around the lower face to treat a variety of concerns:

View on GoogleDr. Hove's plastic surgery office in Paoli, PA, has become the go-to destination for transformative plastic surgery for the following reasons and more:
Dr. Hove is a true artist, with an approach more akin to a sculptor than a surgeon. He is an accomplished graphic artist who has had illustrations published in various medical journals and textbooks. His artistic viewpoint allows him to envision exactly how to complete a neck lift in the best way possible for each patient.
Dr. Hove studied under a founding member of his specialty's academy, Richard L. Goode, MD. Dr. Goode was a world-renowned otolaryngologist who taught students and treated patients at Stanford for decades. Learning from this acclaimed and pioneering doctor gave Dr. Hove a unique background that he still draws upon to this day.
As a double-board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Hove has the knowledge and skill to accurately evaluate any patient who comes into his office. When you come in for your neck lift evaluation, he will take the time to understand your goals and needs before answering any and all questions you may have about the procedure.
If you and Dr. Hove do decide to move forward with neck lift surgery, you will be doing so with the full confidence that your neck and face are in the hands of a surgeon who will deliver the personalized, quality surgery you deserve.
Our Main Line, PA, office uses three neck lift techniques to help patients achieve their desired results. Dr. Hove can discuss different combinations of techniques and incision locations at your consultation.
Cervicoplasty is the process of removing the excess skin on the neck. This technique rids the appearance of deep wrinkles to create a smooth, youthful appearance.
Platysmaplasty involves removing or altering the neck muscles for improved appearance. Platysmaplasty is often paired with cervicoplasty to complete a neck lift procedure.
If a patient has a double chin or excess fat they wish to remove from the neck and jawline, Dr. Hove will perform liposuction along the neckline to remove these stubborn pockets of unwanted fat.
Plastic surgery is more widely available than ever before, making it more important than ever to make sure you choose the right surgeon. Dr. Hove focuses exclusively on procedures that enhance the face and neck, and is a former clinical instructor at Stanford University. As his patient, you can feel confident knowing that your goals are being realized by a leader in plastic surgery who has built a career and reputation on the results he achieves through neck lifts and other facial plastic surgery procedures.

I recently had corrective plastic surgery done by Dr. Hove and I am very happy with the result. My case involved the cosmetic repair of my forehead above my right eye after cancer surgery. I asked my cancer surgeon for the name of the very best plastic surgeon that he knew of and told him I was willing to travel anywhere to get the best possible result. He gave me two names of top cosmetic surgeons but said the number one best guy is Dr. Hove... I highly recommend Dr. Hove to anyone who needs cosmetic plastic surgery.

Revision surgeries are definitely scary & more complex but I would definitely recommend Dr. Hove! I look back at pictures now & I look like a completely different person but still me, or finally me! My nose was always something I was trying to hide or turn to certain angles and now thanks to Dr. Hove I have so much more confidence & am proud of my 'cute' nose! I trust Dr. Hove with my face so much that I also recently had an Upper Blepharoplasty & lower pinch & would 100% recommend Dr. Hove for this procedure as well. Thank you so much, Dr. Hove!
View on GooglePatients often combine their neck lift treatment with other facial surgery procedures for a more youthful appearance and comprehensive makeover. A few popular complementary procedures Dr. Hove offers are:
While the neck lift procedure leaves your neck smooth and youthful, it doesn't affect your face. Patients may choose to have a facelift and a neck lift to complete their cosmetic makeover.
Blepharoplasty, otherwise known as eyelid surgery, helps remove excess skin from the eyelid area and tighten the eyelids in the process. This procedure can awaken your expression to match the youthful look of your neck.
Paired with a neck lift, a brow lift can transform angry expressions and a worried appearance into a face that's lively and youthful. By removing forehead lines, you can better communicate what you feel on the inside.
Cosmetic procedures can boost confidence and make people feel more comfortable in their bodies. We want to make these benefits accessible, which is why our office in Paoli serving the Main Line offers financing through CareCredit®. This third-party lender allows patients to pay for treatment in affordable monthly installments with little or no interest, so your cosmetic procedure can fit your budget.
This depends on the cause. If you have a double chin, a neck lift may be an excellent solution for removing loose skin and fat and tightening the muscle. However, if your lack of chin definition is primarily the result of skin laxity in the lower face, a facelift may be the better solution. During your consultation, Dr. Hove can determine which approach will achieve the results you want.
Not if you choose the right surgeon and take care of your incisions after surgery. Dr. Hove is an authority in facial plastic surgery. When he removes loose neck skin or makes incisions to access the underlying tissues, he uses refined techniques that result in minimal scarring, often in places that are inconspicuous or easily concealed with your hair. After your procedure, you can use sunscreen and take other precautions to help your scars fade considerably and remain subdued.
"Plastic surgery is more widely available than ever before, making it more important than ever to make sure you choose the right surgeon. Dr. Hove focuses exclusively on procedures that enhance the face and neck, and is a former clinical instructor at Stanford University."
Dr. Hove wants all of his Main Line patients to have the ability to develop the youthful, attractive look they desire. To this end, he offers a variety of non-surgical procedures, like:
These procedures can be combined with a neck lift to allow for more dramatic improvements. Some patients may also want to try out these treatments before making the jump to a full-fledged cosmetic surgery.
