Can you go back to work in 4-5 days after MyEllevate?

Question

Have had submental lipo before and still have a poor neckline so I’ve been looking into MyEllevate.Unfortunately, I don’t get many vacation days at work so the best I could do is procedure late Friday and back to work Tuesday. Is this enough for this to remain discreet/to feel fine for work?

More information is needed, such as a full set of facial and neck photographs from all angles to make a determination about the most appropriate procedure. The most likely reason that liposuction failed for you is because you probably have fat deposits located below the platysma muscle in the neck. If that's the case, it take a surgical neck lift to remove those compartments of fat in addition to a platysma plasty to significantly improve the jawline. Most patients take at least a week off from work.
