I’m trying to determine what would be best to tackle as I hate both. My jawline is deficient and my neck is large. I don’t feel a lot of fat on the outside of my neck and definitely feel like a muscular issue. I’d like to know what my opinions are and see if I can start researching what procedure id like to get that doesn’t look fake. Such as a chin implant. Thanks!
Answer: Long neck or short jaw Based on the photos provided, a small chin implant and neck liposuction procedure would likely produce a dramatic improvement and a very natural-appearing result. If there is significant laxity of the skin or underlying muscle, a neck lift may be indicated, but this does not appear to be needed based on these photos. Younger patients typically respond well to liposuction and well get some mild tightening of the skin in addition to removal of the underlying fatty tissue. An additional option would be Kybella injections to dissolve the fatty tissue under the chin, but keep in mind that this requires multiple treatment sessions and will not augment the chin at all, which would improve the overall result. Neck liposuction and a chin implant can be performed in a quick outpatient procedure with one recovery period. Be sure to see an expert who specializes in facial aesthetics. All the best,

Answer: Neck liposuction, lift and chin implant Based on your photos it looks like you will need both neck contouring and chin augmentation. Neck contouring, including liposuction and anterior neck lift, will address both superficial and deep (beneath neck muscles) fat compartments while chin augmentation will further improve neck/jaw angle. A consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with good reputation in face and neck surgery would help. Good luck.

Answer: Large neck or short jaw. What are my options? Hello,Thanks for your question. Of course, an in-person consultation is needed to give you your best options. That being said, for concerns like yours, I've found that a combination of neck liposuction, platysmal muscle repair, subplatysmal fat removal and chin implant placement work well to transform the shape of the neck in a significant way that looks natural. I would recommend that you consult with a facial cosmetic surgery specialist for more information.Good luck,Dr. Shah

Answer: Neck fullness You might be a good candidate for neck liposuction to remove excess fat along with FaceTite to tighten the skin. This would better define your jawline without making the chin look larger. These procedures can be done in the office under local anesthesia and requires just a few days of down time.
