The neck is one of the first areas to show visible signs of ageing. Over time, the skin can become thinner, looser and more crepey, while changes to the jawline and lower face can make the neck appear less defined.
At The Cosmetic Skin Clinic, we offer a range of non-surgical neck lift treatments designed to tighten, smooth and refine the neck area without surgery. Depending on your concerns, your practitioner may recommend treatments such as Ultherapy®, Morpheus8, Profhilo®, Botox®, Silhouette Soft® thread lifting or injectable neck treatments.
These treatments can help to improve skin laxity, soften neck lines, support collagen production, redefine the jawline and create a smoother, fresher-looking neckline.
Unlike a surgical neck lift, our non-surgical treatments do not involve incisions, general anaesthetic or a lengthy recovery period. Your practitioner will assess your neck, jawline and lower face carefully before recommending the most suitable treatment plan for your individual concerns.
To book a consultation please don’t hesitate to call our clinics in London and Buckinghamshire.

A non-surgical neck lift is not a single treatment. It is a personalised treatment approach designed to improve the appearance of the neck, jawline and lower face without surgery.
The best treatment for you will depend on the quality of your skin, the degree of skin laxity, the appearance of neck lines, the strength of the jawline and whether there is volume loss or sagging in the lower face.
Your practitioner may recommend one treatment or a combination of treatments to help lift, tighten, smooth and rejuvenate the neck area.
Botox® can be used to soften the appearance of vertical neck bands and redefine the lower face and jawline.
This treatment is often referred to as the Nefertiti Neck Lift, inspired by the elegant neckline associated with Queen Nefertiti. It works by relaxing specific muscles in the neck that can pull the lower face downwards, helping to create a smoother, more lifted-looking neck and jawline.
Botox® may be suitable for patients who are concerned with visible neck bands, early lower-face heaviness or a less defined jawline. It is often recommended for patients with mild to moderate concerns, or as part of a combination treatment plan.
Results usually develop gradually over several days and can help the neck and lower face appear smoother and more refined.

Non invasive neck lift with Profhilo is a great way to treat necks that have a mild lines or sagging. Profhilo uses a unique 100% hyaluronic acid formulation that is slightly different to standard hyaluronic acid dermal filler treatments as it does not add volume to the areas treated. What it does instead is work to encourage the production of 4 different types of collagen and elastin whilst increasing the skin hydration and moisture levels. When Profhilo is strategically placed across areas of skin laxity on the neck, this helps to restore structure and smoothness to the skin on the neck and can give the impression of a subtle lift and tighter appearance to the skin.
Profhilo Neck Before and After – Neck Lift Results

Silhouette Soft® thread lifting has a unique double lifting and regenerating effect. Treatment is carried out using re-absorbable poly-L-lactic acid (or PLA) sutures; your medical practitioner then redefines the area treated by compressing and lifting the sagging skin tissue. Over the next 18-24 months, the biodegradable suture thread will be naturally absorbed by your skin, stimulating the body to produce its own collagen so that skin continues to rejuvenate.
The number of threads used depends on the areas of the neck to be treated. Sometimes the threads will be inserted from the base of the jaw line and across under the chin.
Ultherapy is the only FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment for lifting the loose skin on the neck and chin by using tried-and-tested ultrasound technology to gradually strengthen your skin from deep within. Results can be effective because your practitioner can ensure the ultrasound energy is targeted to precisely where it is needed for a sculpted neckline.
Ultherapy Before and After Neck Lift Results

Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to remodel and tighten the skin.
For the neck, Morpheus8 can be used to target crepey skin, fine lines, wrinkles, laxity and uneven texture. The microneedles create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, while radiofrequency energy heats the deeper layers to stimulate collagen and elastin production.
This makes Morpheus8 a useful option for patients who want to improve both skin texture and firmness in the neck area. It may be particularly suitable where the skin appears loose, wrinkled or less smooth, or where there is early laxity around the lower face and jawline.
Morpheus8 is often used as part of a wider non-surgical neck rejuvenation plan and may be combined with treatments such as Profhilo®, Ultherapy® or dermal fillers, depending on your concerns.
Your practitioner will advise how many sessions may be needed and whether Morpheus8 is the most suitable treatment for your neck.
Morpheus8 Before and After Neck Lift Results

Injectable treatments can play an important role in non-surgical neck rejuvenation, particularly where the concern is skin quality, fine lines, crepiness or loss of support around the lower face.
While traditional dermal fillers are often associated with restoring volume in areas such as the cheeks, chin and jawline, selected injectable treatments can also be used to improve the appearance of the neck and surrounding lower face.
Your practitioner may recommend injectable treatments such as:
Injectable neck treatments are not suitable for every type of neck concern. If there is more significant skin laxity, your practitioner may recommend Ultherapy®, Morpheus8 or thread lifting instead, or as part of a combination treatment plan.

For patients with skin laxity, sagging or a less defined jawline, treatments such as Ultherapy®, Morpheus8 or Silhouette Soft® thread lifting may be more suitable.
In some cases, a combination treatment plan may be recommended to improve skin texture, firmness, hydration and lift. Your practitioner will assess your neck and recommend the most appropriate approach during consultation.
Your practitioner will advise which treatment is most suitable after assessing your neck, jawline, lower face and skin quality.
They will consider whether your main concern is loose skin, neck bands, crepey texture, fine lines, loss of jawline definition or lower-face heaviness. They will also discuss your treatment goals, medical history and the type of result you would like to achieve.
A personalised treatment plan will then be recommended based on your individual needs.
