I am a 45 yr old woman beginning to see a genetic tendency to the classic sagging neck. Would be very appreciative of a recommendation to a surgeon specializing in this surgery in MN or Chicago. Thank you!

Lipo vs necklift

There is no way to determine what surgery you should have without examining you in person. I would recommend finding a Plastic Surgeon with experience in necklifts/facelifts. Sometimes it's helpful to look at before/after photos to get an idea of a surgeon's work. In the end, there are likely to be many qualified surgeons - like any relationship, you need to pick one that you really feel comfortable with. Dr. Cat Begovic M.D.

Neck lift

If you just have fullness with minimal sagging skin, you could have a SmartLipo or SlimLipo procedure./ If you already have excess skin, then you would probably benefit from a removal of this skin as well as the liposuction. Watch my video!

A consultation should be an educational experience and not a pressure sale. Good luck

Neck sagging

You should see a board-certified plastic surgeon if you need a lift. Either a plastic surgeon or dermatologic surgeon can perform neck liposuction but this may not be enough for you if redundant skin needs to be removed. Sometimes patients don't want to undergo surgery and would elect to improve their condition with noninvasive procedures understanding that they wouldn't get as good a result compared with the surgical outcome. Botox can temporarily improve the platysma... more

Sagging neck skin.

Liposuction is not for this problem. A facelift is what you need to remove the excess skin. See an experienced facelift surgeon in either place whose work you think is natural looking.
