Can Crepey Neck Skin After Submental Lipo Be Fixed?

February 2, 2010
Asked By:jjjules in Winston-salem, nc

Four years ago, when I had Submental Lipo, the surgeon told me my skin was tight enough to snap back. I look fine straight on. However; if I bend my head or neck, my neck looks like it belongs to someone much older. When I wear a turtleneck excess skin hangs over.I've tried Titan, minimal results. Different Otolaryngologist/plastic surgeon wants to do only a mini lift to correct jowls for $7000. It doesn't seem worth it, if it won't fix issue. Or is there simply no fix?
