Neck Lift in Chicago, IL

Dr. Shah’s industry-transforming approach to this procedure has genuinely revolutionized the field. Experience the difference.

An Innovator in the Field

Dr. Shah is the developer of the Five Layer Neck lift in Chicago, the only procedure that treats all five layers of the neck. As he stated in “Facial Plastic Surgery & Aesthetic Medicine,” "Most neck liposuction procedures don't truly lift the neck," Dr. Shah said. "It's the floor of the mouth that falls with age or is genetically lower. With my technique, I can reposition the deeper tissues and allow for more consistently appealing outcomes."

As Dr. Shah points out, as we age, the floor of the mouth, encompassing the base of the tongue, descends, potentially contributing to a heavier neck appearance. But with manipulation of the digastric muscle—a deep neck muscle—to enhance the length and lift of the neck, a deeper healing can occur.
