Restore Elegance and Definition to Your Neckline

The neck is often one of the first areas to reveal signs of aging, with skin laxity, banding, and excess fullness affecting contour. The Contoured Mini Neck Lift in Houston with Dr. Courtney offers a refined solution for patients seeking to restore youthful definition without undergoing a full neck lift. By combining precision technique with an artistic eye, Dr. Courtney achieves natural-looking improvements that enhance your profile and leave you confident.

What Is a Contoured Mini Neck Lift?

A Contoured Mini Neck Lift is a specialized procedure designed to improve mild to moderate neck sagging and fullness. Unlike a traditional neck lift, which addresses more advanced aging with larger incisions and more extensive lifting, the mini version uses smaller, strategically placed incisions for a shorter recovery and minimal scarring.

Dr. Courtney’s contoured approach sets this procedure apart: he combines subtle skin tightening with careful contouring of the underlying tissues and fat, creating a smooth, elegant neckline that looks natural from every angle. This makes the procedure ideal for patients who want noticeable yet refined improvements without the downtime of more invasive surgery.
