Happy Mother's Day if you are one. Feeling ok today but I see a little extra skin still on one side of chin. Trying to remember it will take time for swelling to heal. My doctor did a great job on my boobs but my chin had so much hanging skin as you can see on these pics.

Scar revision done
Going under local was not too bad. I heard the cutting and smelled a burning smell. Waiting game now as swelling in my chin and neck is bad. The scar looks better but not sure if all the extra skin is gone. Stitches come out next week.

I know you are eager to finish up with surgeries/healing but I really think you should take to heart the advice offered by the RS docs who responded to your question. I was going to post here when I noticed your question and their concurrent responses which mirrored perfectly what I intended to write. The initial facelift IMO couldn't lift a neck after significant weightloss without an accompanying separate neck lift.
And a neck lift can't be done well without pulling laterally and re-draping thru the incisions behind the ears. I know you have have multiple successful body procedures with your PS and you trust him but every entry into the neck creates additional scarring that might compromise a great result. I wish you well..... you have been a great friend on RS :) grace

I had the smas facelift and neck lift in the first procedure with the pulling and re-drapping. He did not do the chin skin during that procedure as he thought the pulling and lifting of my neck would take care of my chin. No one is perfect and I trust his skills. He is a skilled surgeon with over 20 years doing surgeries. He put my friends face back together after it was ripped apart in a head on car crash. You would never know she had hundreds of stitches in her face. The rest of my face, eyes, tummy and boobs were all done by him with success. ...I am happy with those. Also I have lost a few more pounds over the past month and I think it added to the skin hanging. So next Tuesday he will fix the chin scar and I will wait 6 months or more to see if he needs to revise my neck re-draping. Thank you for the message to me. I appreciate your opinion.

I can see why you trust him.....your results have been great. You've been a real inspiration to so many with the commitment to weight loss (not easy) and the strategy you've used to get into great shape. So congratulations and I really do wish you the very best for this last little tweaking.
