A surgical neck lift + MSC + fibroblast therapy gives you both mechanical correction and biologic rejuvenation, which are normally opposites.
Here’s how it works and what it delivers in practice:
🧬 Why Combine Them
A surgical lift can reposition tissue beautifully, but it doesn’t improve the skin’s biology — the cells, collagen, and microcirculation remain aged.
MSC and fibroblast therapies do the opposite — they rejuvenate the skin, but can’t remove excess tissue or banding.
Combining the two gives you:
Tighter structure (from surgery)
Healthier, younger skin (from cell therapy)
Longer-lasting smoothness (less relapse or sagging)
🩺 Recommended Timeline
Here’s how the best plastic/regenerative clinics coordinate it:
| Stage | Timing | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Neck Lift Surgery | Baseline procedure | Removes excess skin and repositions muscles/fat. |
| 2. MSC Treatment (Wharton’s Jelly or SVF) | 4–6 weeks after surgery | Reduces inflammation, improves wound healing, and accelerates collagen remodeling. Often done IV + local microinjection. |
| 3. Autologous Fibroblast Therapy | 2–3 months post-op | Rebuilds long-term dermal structure and smooths scars and fine crepiness. |
| 4. Maintenance | Every 12–18 months | Light PRP or fibroblast touch-up to sustain tone. |
⚕️ Typical Outcome
Tightness: 90–100% (same as lift alone).
Texture, tone, and color: dramatically better — more youthful, not “surgical” looking.
Healing: faster, less fibrosis, less scar rigidity.
Longevity: up to 8–10 years before noticeable laxity returns.
💰 Typical Cost (Colombia / Medellín)
| Component | Approx USD |
|---|---|
| Neck Lift Surgery | 4,000–6,000 |
| MSC (Wharton’s Jelly, 20–30M cells) | 1,600–1,800 |
| Fibroblast Therapy (biopsy + 2 sessions) | 1,100 |
| Estimated Combined Total | ≈ 6,500–8,500 USD |
That’s about half the U.S. cost for equivalent outcomes — and with biologic repair added in.
💡 Bottom Line
A neck lift gives you the shape back.
MSCs restore cellular health and smoothness.
Fibroblasts rebuild tissue integrity for the long term.
So the combo gives a younger neck that both looks and behaves like younger tissue — not just pulled tight.
