Deep neck lift cost

How much does a deep neck lift cost in Gangnam, Seoul?

The short answer

Rewind does not sell the deep neck as a single headline figure. Its fee sheet carries the subplatysmal work as an addition to a chin and jaw line plan, so a quotation is assembled from whichever listed operations the examination justifies: the suction of the fat above the muscle, the extraction of the deposit beneath it, the tightening of the platysma, and, where the finding calls for it, reduction of the gland under the jaw. Anaesthetic fees are already counted inside every listed figure and VAT is charged separately. A neck being corrected after earlier surgery carries its own listed line instead of the first-operation one.

Figures on this page come from Rewind's own fee sheet for contouring surgery. The operative description comes from the clinic's Korean surgical page for grape-cluster fat removal. Theatre time and the anaesthetic used are unpublished by the clinic, so no part of this page attaches a fee to either.

Under the question there is usually a sharper one: why should the deep line cost more than the suction that did not work. The deposit that a deep neck lift targets lies beneath the platysma, the muscle sheet across the front of the neck, and a suction cannula travels above that sheet. Reaching underneath means opening the compartment through the same short submental line, lifting the fat out by hand in pieces, and then closing the muscle so the neck carries tension again. Three operative steps live inside one listed addition, which is where the difference in the figure comes from.

Before & After

Three Rewind neck cases and the listed lines each plan carried

Every case Rewind photographs is published with the operations performed in that session named alongside it. On a pricing page those names matter, because each named operation is a separate figure on the sheet. None of the three below was a deep neck lift alone; all three combined the deep compartment with work above the muscle, which is how the operation is almost always planned.

What one plan was charged has no bearing on what yours would be, and what one profile became has no bearing on what yours would become. Bleeding, infection, prolonged swelling, asymmetry between the two sides, altered sensation under the chin and a scar that matures differently from the one you pictured are all possible. Figures follow an examination with the surgeon.

Lines

What is priced

The four listed operations a deep neck quotation can draw on

Rewind lists neck work as separate operations, so a quotation reads as a short arithmetic instead of a package. Four kinds of line can appear on it, and the examination decides which of them belongs there.

line 01
The suction plan underneath
Chin and jaw line liposuction is the base almost every neck plan rests on, because the layer above the muscle is emptied before anything deeper can be judged. Where the profile is finished at that depth, this is the whole quotation and nothing deeper is proposed.
line 02
The deep compartment, added
Subplatysmal fat removal appears as an addition to that base. The clinic's own wording on this line leaves the exact compartments open, so what it covers in your plan is stated at the examination and not assumed from a list.
line 03
The muscle, tied back
Platysma tightening is listed together with chin and jaw line suction as one combined operation. It is the line that restores tension across the front of the neck once the compartment beneath has been emptied.
line 04
The gland under the jaw
Reduction of an enlarged submandibular gland has a listing of its own and joins a plan only where the examination finds the gland to be what holds the fullness. It is never folded into a suction or muscle figure.

Two of those lines are set out at length elsewhere on this site. The base suction plan and the muscle work are described under double-chin liposuction, and the deep compartment itself under deep neck lift. Where the examination finds loose skin doing the visible work instead of fat, the quotation moves to neck lift, which is a different operation with a different listing.

Quote

From examination to figure

Six things that settle a deep neck lift figure at Rewind

Nothing about the arithmetic is decided from a photograph or a message. Six findings come out of the examination, and between them they fix both the size of the quotation and how much of it you can read before agreeing to it.

01Depth

Whether the fullness sits above the muscle or beneath it

The single finding that decides whether a deep line appears at all. Fat above the platysma travels through a cannula; the deposit clinging under the muscle does not, and has to be separated and lifted out piece by piece through the open compartment. Quantitative work published on neck contouring has gone as far as measuring subplatysmal thickness before surgery to predict how much will be excised, which is the same judgement a surgeon makes by hand at the chair.

02Muscle

Whether the platysma has to be tied back as well

Emptying a compartment under a slack muscle leaves the tension question unanswered, and the surgical literature has treated band deformity after submental suction as the classic reason the muscle is managed rather than left alone. At Rewind the muscle work is carried on a combined listing with chin and jaw line suction, which is why a plan containing it lands above one that does not.

03Gland

Whether a gland is what you are actually seeing

An enlarged submandibular gland can hold a bulge under the jaw that no amount of fat removal touches. Rewind describes it as a walnut-sized organ sitting beneath the jawbone, reduced in part where it protrudes below the jaw line. It carries its own figure, and it joins the plan only when the examination puts it there.

04History

Whether this is a first operation or a correction

A neck that has already been operated on is quoted on the revision listing, which stands above the first-operation combination. Scar tissue in the compartment changes the work, and the applicable figure is only confirmed once the surgeon has established what was done before and what is left to work with.

05Excluded

Two figures this quotation will not contain

Rewind publishes neither the anaesthetic it uses for this operation nor how long it takes in theatre. Because those are unpublished, no fee on the sheet is attached to them and this page invents neither. If either matters to your planning, ask for both at the consultation and have the answer written down.

06On paper

What leaves the consultation with you

A plan naming each operation with its own listed figure, a statement that the anaesthetic fee is inside those figures, and VAT shown as a separate addition. A proposed line with no examination finding behind it does not go on the sheet, and a line you decline is removed without the rest of the plan being renegotiated.

Why itemised

Why the deep neck is quoted apart from everything around it

A single price for a neck hides the two findings that move it most: how deep the fat sits and whether the muscle has slackened. Splitting the quotation puts both in front of the patient, and it keeps the sheet answerable for which parts of the operation were actually indicated.

01Separation

Fat, muscle and gland each hold their own figure

None of the three is bundled into another by default. A plan grows only where the examination produced a reason, and that reason is stated beside the line it justifies, so the arithmetic can be followed backwards to the finding.

02Authorship

The surgeon who quoted the plan is the surgeon at the table

Rewind works as a single-surgeon practice. The hand that read the depth of the compartment is the hand that opens it, so there is no second operator to whom a quoted plan can be passed once it is agreed.

03Afterwards

The month after surgery is part of what was bought

A week in a compression dressing and a month of restraint on how the neck moves belong to the operation, and reviews are arranged with the operating surgeon when the plan is written. Enquiries from abroad are handled in the patient's own language from the first message, under this clinic's KHIDI registration for foreign patients.

Rewind occupies the fourth and fifth floors of the Richro Building in Apgujeong, and the theatre belongs to the clinic. One surgeon carries the case end to end, so no part of a listed figure is divided between a consulting doctor and an operating doctor. The consulting days are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday from 10:00 to 19:00, with Saturday running 10:00 to 16:00, and every slot is booked in advance. Below is what a listed figure already includes, and where it stops.

Published figures

Rewind's listed figures for each line of a deep neck plan

These are the clinic's standard published figures, and they are components of a plan, not a package. Your own quotation is whichever of them the examination justified, added together. The lowest figure here is no bargain and the highest no premium; they describe different amounts of work at different depths of the neck.

Subplatysmal fat removal, as an additionThe deep compartment opened and emptied by hand; covered compartments confirmed at the examination
₩1,500,000
Chin and jaw line liposuctionThe base plan, where the layer above the muscle is what holds the profile
₩1,760,000
Liposuction with platysma tighteningSuction above the muscle and the neck muscle tied back, listed as one operation
₩5,390,000
Submandibular gland reductionAdded only where an enlarged gland below the jaw is the finding
₩1,600,000
Revision: liposuction with platysma tighteningWhere a neck operated on before is being corrected instead of treated for the first time
₩7,500,000

Every figure above is a standard listed rate with VAT charged separately, and the anaesthetic fee for that operation is already counted inside it. Where a plan needs several lines, the total is written out in full at the consultation before a date is taken, and a line you decline comes off without the rest being repriced. Revision figures stand until the earlier surgery has been examined, because what can be done depends on what is left in the compartment.

Fit

Which figure applies

When a deep neck line belongs on the quotation, and when it does not

Findings that put the deep line on the sheet

  • A profile that stayed full after suction emptied the layer above the muscle
  • Skin loosened and muscle stretched with age, with the border between jaw and neck gone soft
  • A returning double chin after earlier facial contouring surgery
  • A structurally short chin, where the jaw itself pushes soft tissue forward into the profile
  • Willingness to keep a compression dressing on for a week and to restrict neck movement for a month

Where the answer is a smaller figure, a delay or a refusal

  • Fullness confined to the layer above the muscle, where suction alone is the smaller and sufficient plan and the deep line is not offered
  • Loose skin doing most of the visible work, which tightening the muscle answers only in part and which belongs to a different operation
  • A bulge that the examination traces to the gland, discussed on its own listing and its own terms
  • Bleeding, clotting or wound-healing conditions, and any medication affecting them
  • Pregnancy, breastfeeding, or active infection along the planned line under the chin
  • A request to fix the figure before the examination; a written plan is given after the neck has been read, not before
After

The part no invoice shows

What a deep neck lift costs beyond the figure on the sheet

Two of Rewind's post-operative sheets apply to this plan, one written for facial liposuction and one for the muscle work, and where their windows differ the longer one governs. Between them they describe the expenditure nobody itemises: a week spent in a dressing and a month spent moving your neck carefully.

The compression week
A dressing that does not come off
The clinic asks for the compression dressing to be kept on for one week, with the area underneath neither pressed nor massaged. Bruising and swelling are recorded as possible, with an early return to ordinary activity. Keeping the wound clean is part of the instruction; severe pain or a fever means coming straight back in.
Two weeks
The muscle is left to settle
The sheet for the muscle work asks for at least two weeks without alcohol, smoking, sauna or steam rooms, with no massage of the operated area and enough rest for the tightened muscle. Swelling and a sense of tightness belong to that period.
One month
How far the neck may move
For a month the chin is not dropped sharply and the head is not turned forcefully to either side. The liposuction sheet holds strenuous exercise, sauna and alcohol to the same month and uses cold compresses early for swelling.
Beyond
A line that matures in its own time
The line under the chin is cared for as a healing scar, with sun protection while it settles; the clinic records it as about two centimetres. Rewind records durability of more than five years with individual variation, and ageing continues on top of the repair.

Risks belong on a pricing page as much as figures do: bleeding, infection, prolonged swelling and bruising, asymmetry between the two sides, altered sensation under the chin, injury to nerves running near the jaw line, and a scar that heals differently from the one you imagined. Any of those can turn into a second operation with a revision figure attached. An outcome cannot be promised and results vary by individual. Tell the surgeon about every previous operation on your face or neck, and every medication you take, before a date is agreed.

Questions

Deep neck lift pricing — the questions asked before a date is taken

How much does a deep neck lift cost in Gangnam, Seoul?
Rewind lists the deep work as an addition to a chin and jaw line plan, so your figure is the sum of the listed operations the examination justified. The deep compartment sits on its own line at ₩1,500,000, with the base suction plan and any muscle or gland work listed separately above.
Why does the deep line sit above a straightforward chin and jaw line suction?
Because it is a different operation at a different depth. Suction empties the layer above the platysma; the deposit beneath that muscle has to be reached through the opened compartment and taken out granule by granule, after which the muscle is closed again. Three operative steps sit inside that one listed addition.
Is the anaesthetic fee inside the listed figure, and is VAT extra?
The anaesthetic fee is already counted inside each published figure for surgery here. VAT is charged in addition to the listed figure. Both points apply to every line on a neck plan, the revision listing included, and the written plan states them.
Can I be given a figure before I travel to Seoul?
The components are public, so the arithmetic can be studied in advance. The total is not, because the depth of the fat, the state of the muscle and the question of the gland all come out of an examination. Patients abroad are given the line list first and the total after the consultation.
What happens to the figure if the gland turns out to be the problem?
Reduction of an enlarged submandibular gland is listed at ₩1,600,000 and joins a plan only where the examination finds the gland holding the fullness. It is never folded into a suction or muscle figure, and it can be declined without the rest of the plan changing.
How is a neck that has already been operated on quoted?
On the revision listing instead of the first-operation one, because scar tissue in the compartment changes the work. The applicable figure is confirmed once the surgeon has examined what was done before and what remains to work with, which is why that quotation is given in person.
Why will nobody tell me the theatre time or the anaesthetic in advance?
Rewind publishes neither for this operation. This page leaves both out instead of estimating them, and attaches no fee to either. Ask for both at the consultation and have the answers written into the plan alongside the figures.
How does a Seoul figure compare with quotations given elsewhere?
This page publishes one fee sheet and no one else's, so it makes no claim about figures given in other countries. What is comparable is the structure: each layer of the neck listed separately, the anaesthetic fee inside the listed figure, VAT stated as an addition, and the total written down before a date is taken.

Scientific evidence

Published work behind the lines on this neck fee sheet

None of these papers concerns fees. They are listed because each describes work that appears as a line above: measuring the deep compartment before it is opened, reducing a neck across two planes, the band deformity that made management of the muscle standard practice, and a large series of submental fat removal. The techniques, settings and anaesthetic choices in them belong to their authors and describe neither this clinic nor your neck; Rewind does not publish its anaesthetic protocol, and that is confirmed at the examination.
