I am a 35 year old male. I have become increasingly unhappy with the lower half of my face. If I look down at all, I have a double chin. My cheeks are flat. I have been thinking about chin lip or a neck lift and I have also been thinking about doing something to help my cheeks. Any suggestions or comments? Thanks for your time.

At 35 you seem a bit young to have a formal Neck Lift which is quite a lot of surgery. You chin seems weak and there is excess fatty tissue of your neck. I can't really see your Cheek but you stated they were flat. I also noticed that your Jaw Line is not prominent.

From your main complaint and pictures "I have become increasingly unhappy with the lower half of my face. If I look down at all, I have a double chin. My cheeks are flat", the best treatment would entail a neck lift with liposuction and fat injections to the face, including the cheeks. You might consider undergoing a mid-face lift at the same time. he best treatment can only be determined by a thorough examination. From El Paso, Las Cruces, Mexico.

Options for lower face and neck

A neck lift is a far superior operation than just a traditional neck lipo. The neck lift will entail removal of fat both above and below the platysmal muscle, which is very important in the neck, especially in men. For a man with a short neck, it is important to adjust the digastric muscle as well. Tightening the platysmal muscle in front will give a definition of a new jaw line through a neck lift. Simple liposuction alone is not typically enough in this type of the neck. more

Double Chin and Flat Cheeks, Neck Lift and other options

Dear USC5555, A full consultation will help determine your goals and the anatomical changes behind the picture. It is necessary to determine the best course of action. However, options for excess tissue in the neck would range from closed liposuction to open liposuction with platysmaplasty to a face (neck) lift. One would obtain progressively more change with each option. At you age, you likely still have good elasticity in your skin, therefore your skin's... more

Neck Lift treatments for patients under 40

Hi USC5555, Sagging, full, or fat appearing necks in younger patients may be improved via a few methods. Typically, there is excess fat and/or weak bone structure, which may run in the family. Neck liposuction with or without a chin implant are two less invasive options to improve the neck contour. A lower facelift may lift the neck and reduce excess skin, but generally not performed in those less than 40. Only after a comprehensive evaluation can a plastic surgeon help... more

Chin Lipo Or Neck Lift And/OR Cheek Fat Transfer?

Very unfair to give you a definitive treatment plan based upon only one photo. My guess is a neck lift with submental lipo + Stem Cell + PRP fat to cheeks. From MIAMI Dr. Darryl J. Blinski

Double Chin, Flat Cheeks, and Small Chin what to do?

Dear Patient from Los Angeles, Review of your photo without a physical examination reveals: excess skin and fatty tissue in neck area, small chin, and flat cheeks. You may be a good candidate for a neck liposuction and lift, as well as chin and cheek augmentation using fat grafting with PRP. Good Luck

The Lower Third of the Face: Necklift, Implant and Harmony

Treatment of the lower third of the face often relates to the excess of skin and fat under the jawline. As we age, and even gain weight, these tissues become more lax creating a double chin appearance with an additional loss of the jawline definition. There are multiple surgical procedures that can refine or aggressively alter the appearance of the lower face ranging from a limited liposuction to a neck lift with chin and mandibular implants. These same principles (suspension,... more

Necklift - Chin Implant - Cheek Enhancement

A photo, of course, cannont substitue a thorough examination by a qualified facelift surgeon. But looking at your photo, I wonder if you would also benefit from chin enhancement. Certainly, the best outcome with maximum longevity will be accomplished by a necklift. Liposuction of the neck by itselft will lead to disappointing results. In addition, you do appear to have flat cheeks. Options include cheek implants, fat grafting or injectable fillers.
