How does my skin laxity look? Am I a neck lift candidate? What else could I do to improve profile? 26 years old
Answer: Options for neck lift in your 20s Hi and thank you for your question. Unfortunately your pictures did not come through so I cannot truly comment. There are multiple options, surgical and non-surgical, available to you. Currently there are a variety of instruments that can help tighten skin or melt/freeze fat in this area. In terms of injectable treatments patients can now elect for Kybella should subcutaneous fat be the main problem for you. In my practice I do perform a fair amount of lipocontouring with either removal of subplatysmal fat or tightening of the platysma muscle. I have also found that the addition of a chin implant also can add extra length in the neck and stretch the skin adequately so as to avoid incisions behind the ears. Good luck to you. A consultation with a plastic surgeon who specializes in facial aesthetics will be your best resource.

Answer: Neck lift? From your pictures, it does not appear that you need a neck lift. An in person consultation would be helpful to determine if any other procedures might address your concerns, such as a chin augmentation or submental liposuction.

Answer: Neck Sagging Solutions Thank you for your question, jobotcosmetics, and your detailed pictures. I do not see the turkey neck and the skin laxity seems fine. You may be a Neck Lift candidate in the future, however, I suggest you continue to follow a healthy diet to maintain your great neckline. If you would like to improve your profile, you may consider altering the look for your nose or lips, however I have not seen a complete profile picture. We offer imaging technology at our office to help our patients understand how certain procedures would affect their appearance. I suggest you consult a board certified facial plastic surgeon whose office has similar imaging capabilities. Best wishes,
