Asked By:mattox14 in Bloomington, IL

I am 47 y.o. & 4.5 months ago I had lipo to get rid of my double chin & a necklift to remove loose skin, including stitching platysma muscles. I am left w/loose skin & maybe some fat leftover. My surgeon has discussed removing the excess skin w/zig zag incision an inch below incision I already have under my chin; possibly removing fat also; and/or maybe restitching the platysma muscles. Need opinions before I get an even more obvious incision scar on my neck.Will my chin/neck ever look smooth?
