Remarkable Care, Exceptional Results
“A+, Grand Slam, a master of this art, the consummate, highly skilled professional with a great support staff. As a 62yo female, I was looking tired; hollow under my eyes, a chin like a turkey & the jowls of a French bull dog. After careful research & consideration, I went into see Dr. Kulbersh for a consult. He impressed me with his first question, “What do you not like about your face…”almost everything” I thought, not really, but close. Three weeks post op of a mini face lift, lipo under the chin & fat grafting, I am healed & looking refreshed, perfect symmetry, with no bruising or scars. I could not be more pleased with the results. He is a true master of this art.”

Your Necklift Experience at Carolina Facial Plastics
Your Consultation
During your consultation, you and Dr. Kulbersh will discuss your concerns and goals in detail so that Dr. Kulbersh can customize the procedures to each patient. Depending on the extent of your surgery, he will offer you the option of using local anesthesia rather than general anesthesia for your surgery.
Your Procedure
Your neck lift will be performed at the fully accredited Fairview Surgical Suites. Neck lift surgery can take 2-4 hours to complete.
Dr. Kulbersh makes a tiny incision underneath the chin to camouflage any scarring. Then, he tightens the platysma to create a smoother and more defined jawline.
The final step is Dr. Kulbersh pulling sagging tissue along the jawline, and he may also remove excess fat on the neck and jowls using liposuction for more comprehensive results.

Necklift FAQ
What are the possible complications of a neck lift?
Any surgical procedure comes with possible risks and complications. Possible neck lift complications include:
- Bleeding
- Bruising
- Swelling
- Pain
- Infection
- Changes in skin sensation
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
- Poor wound healing
- Temporary hair loss along incisions
How much does a neck lift cost in Charlotte, NC?
The cost of a neck lift ranges from $11,000 up to $17,000 in Charlotte. The complexity of the neck lift procedure impacts the cost, including additional procedures like facelift, facial fat grafting, facial liposuction, platysmaplasty, and/or eyelift.
How can I prepare for a neck lift?
Preparing for your neck lift begins weeks before your surgery. We tell patients to stop taking certain medications (e.g., blood thinners) and supplements that may increase the risk of bruising after surgery.
We will give a list of instructions to make your recovery process as smooth as possible. You may contact our Charlotte office if you have any questions before your surgery.
How long will my neck lift last?
Neck lift results can last for approximately 10 years with proper maintenance. You cannot stop the natural aging process, so your neck skin will still lose elasticity. By maintaining a healthy lifestyle, using medical-grade skincare, and using sun protection, you may be able to extend the length of your neck lift results.
Are there any age restrictions for undergoing a neck lift?
There is no age restriction for undergoing a neck lift, but the ideal candidates for neck lift surgery are usually between 40 and 65 years of age or those with more advanced signs of aging in the neck.
Does insurance ever cover neck lifts in Charlotte?
Cosmetic surgeries like a neck lift are not typically covered by insurance.
How long will I need to plan on staying for my neck lift if I’m traveling from out of town?
Plan to spend at least one week in Charlotte so we can monitor your initial recovery process. Our concierge services can assist you with any booking and transportation arrangement you need to make your stay as smooth and stress-free as possible. You may also spend your first night post-surgery in our Fairview Recovery Retreat, where you will receive round-the-clock care.
What happens if I have problems after my surgery?
We are committed to delivering excellent patient care, which continues long after your neck lift is complete. We are always available to answer your questions, or you may schedule a follow-up visit so we can personally address any complications you might have.
What happens if I have problems after my neck lift if I live in another state?
We always advise our surgical patients arriving from another town or state to plan a week’s stay in Charlotte since potential issues can typically arise during this time. If you encounter a problem once you return home, you may contact us so we can assist you.
Are there non-surgical offers before I commit to a surgical neck lift procedure?
Botox injections, Kybella injections, dermal fillers, and laser and RF microneedling procedures can be combined to rejuvenate the neck without surgery.
At Carolina Facial Plastics, we offer a multi-treatment approach to skin tightening. Some patients benefit from our advanced combination procedures like Ultimate Duo treatment, which combines our Cool Peel with Virtue RF or Sylfirm RF to tighten skin, reduce lines and wrinkles, and smooth out skin irregularities.
These procedures address numerous signs of aging in the neck, including sagging skin, fine lines and wrinkles, excess fat, and neck bands.
