I'll start by saying that all of the skin on my body has changed and become very loose and dull, but I understand only so much can be done so I'm opting to treat what's most visible first. There's a looseness to my neck as well as prominent horizontal banding along with the vertical, what really bothers me is the loose triangle of skin under my chin and around my jaw. Would filler and botox be an option? Would also contouring my jaw with filler help the appearance (small lower facial struct.)
Answer: Loose Skin at 20 Thank you for your question. Botox works by blocking signals from the nerves to the muscles. The injected muscle then can no longer contract, which causes the wrinkles to relax and soften. Some ways to help your loose skin in your neck include Botox, laser and Kybella. Botox can be placed in the vertical bands in the neck. You can have laser kin tightening treatments to help tighten the skin on the neck. Finally, you have Kybella done to address a double chin (submental fullness). You can discuss these options with your treating physician during your consultation. Best of Luck!

Answer: Loose skin versus excess fat tissue Thanks for sharing your photos. The key factor here is determining if the neck looseness that you describe is due to excess fat or skin "laxity". From your photos, it is more likely due to skin laxity. Ultrasound or radiotherapy-based skin tightening treatments might be helpful.
