Thank you for your question, Tai6. I suggest you consult with your board certified facial plastic surgeon. The difference between those options is the level of invasiveness, recovery time, target part of the neck and effectiveness. The Laser-Assisted Weekend Necklift provides a natural appearance in a short and comfortable recovery time after a procedure that leverages minimal invasiveness under local anesthesia. You are too young for this option, but you may find implants, injectables or liposuction are amenable solutions. Best wishes,
At age 29 liposuction of the neck is probably the best option. We usually focus on the submental area (in the middle below the chin). It can also be helpful to very carefully perform some additional liposuction jsut below the jawline, but there are nerves in this area which need to be avoided.Kybella is the other option for treating fat. It works well in most people who are younger with good skin elasticity, but the results are not immediate like you get with lipo.A necklift involves tightening the muscle layer and/or skin laxity in the neck and is usually not necessary before age 40 in most people. There is no way to answer this question for you in particular without an in person examination. Even seeing pictures would not be enough because your surgeon really needs to be able to closely examine and feel the neck to determine what will work best.
