Does a neck lift require a long recovery time?

Yes: To really tighten a neck it will take several weeks to get over it and maybe bout 8 weeks to get to your final result. You should look pretty good in two weeks but will be better t 8.

Neck lift: The pain is not bad from a neck lift, but it will feel tight for a few months. You will have to wear a garment for 1-2 weeks, and perhaps longer at night because swelling can be variable. No strenuous activity for 6-8 weeks. http://www.dassmd.com/neck-lift-beverly-hills.html.

Neck lift one week: Typical recovery is one week but in some cases there can be more bruising and swelling requiring two weeks of recovery time.

Couple of weeks: Recovery from a neck lift will take about 2 weeks. I would recommend to have a 4 week recovery if you are planning attending an important event such as a wedding to allow for all swelling and bruising to go away.
