Not Worth It

After liposuction of the neck 10 years ago, my neck contour improved, but it could have been better. Today, the same "no angle" neck has returned and I believe this trampoline system will help. I'll update after the procedure.

Just an update. I had general anesthetic (the surgeon feels it is safer) and so all day yesterday I was very groggy. I got a first glimpse this morning and was pretty horrified, but everyone told me I would be. They were right because tonight it's already not horrifying. The morning after surgery, once you take off the bandages and headress, you see your skin full of very ugly ridges and you CAN see the tugging of the sutures a bit. It is pretty scary stuff.
As far as pain, it's not terrible. It feels tight, but I may skip the pain killer (that drousy and groggy kind) except at night.
I was very surprised to not see the punctures on the jowels. They are extremely discreet and honestly, I think they'll be gone in a few days.
I'm more concerned about the ridges going all away, and being able to show my neck in public. As far as the PROFILE itself, which is what I wanted to improve. It is definitely the case. But of course I don't want a great profile with ridges ;). To be continued. I'll soon add pics.

5 months post op, I'm not at all pleased with the results. My skin looks more "aged" and the pain I had for 4 months whenever I opened my mouth wide (apples, yawning, laughing) was not worth it. The definition of my neck has not changed at all - any improvement I thought I saw in the first week was due to wearing the garment 24/7. That obviously cannot be continued for months.
My advice, don't do it. I wish I hadn't!

Very "nice" doctor, but stubornly won't admit that procedure has left me looking worse rather than better.

Good luck, Chani! I hope your surgery goes well.
Thanks for sharing photos. I had chin lipo when I probably needed a neck lift to sew the necks muscles together, so I'm watching your review with interest.
The swelling took at least 2 months to go away in my case, so try to be patient. It looks good so far!
