Loose skin in the neck will do best with a skin tightening procedure, a neck lift. All the lasers inthe world will not correct this problem.

Steven Wallach, MD answers: I hate my neck
Lots of things on my face bother me but I absolutely can't stand my neck for a moment longer ....its a bad mixture of genetics and sun and I'm really wanting to fix it. I just had Total FX on my face a couple of weeks ago and healed very quickly. Is a face and neck lift the only thing that will help me? I'm terrified of going under general anesthesia because I have young children and although its safe, there's always a risk. I also don't know any surgeons who specialize in neck rejuvenation. Help!

JonnJana, A neck lift combined with a moderate amount of neck liposuction would probably be the best thing for you. It will give more definition to your jaw line and smooth out the skin. It is hard to tell from the picture, but it looks like you have some banding in your neck as well. You might want to try some Botox injections into the bands. In the right people, it can make a significant difference. Good luck.

To jonnjana,
Hi! From the one photograph, it does not look like you need a facelift. You need a neck lift with correction of the muscle bands (platysma bands). You might also need a small chin implant. All of this can be done through a short incision under the chin under local anesthesia with sedation.
Go to a board certified plastic surgeon, and ask to see before and after pictures of neck lifts.
