Dean Joseph Fardo, MD answers: Submentoplasty or Neck Lift for fat and sagging under chin?

I'm considering submentoplasty or neck lift and wondering which one would be better for me. Some surgeon suggests neck lift, some submentoplasty. I'm 48 years old, normal weight, healthy woman. I have some extra fat under my chin and some sagging skin. I add the photo, where I'm swallowing, because then my neck look worse.

When discussing neck rejuvenation, there are usually several options. The difficult part is the terminology that is used may differ by surgeons. Generally speaking, a facelift with necklift will provide the best outcomes in neck contouring. However, lesser involved procedures may also provide a good result. I would recommend several consults until you are satisfied that you understand the terminology and what each option will provide. Best of luck!
