Earlier this year a board certified ENT plastic surgeon of 22 years performed a SMAS, Facelift, NeckLift with Platysmaplasty and Liposuction. At first my neck looked fine , not too drastic of a change but still a noticeable one. Then by month 3 things started to droop and what was thought of as swelling was not. Now at 6 mos my surgeon just wants to do a fat transfer under my chin. I do not believe this will give me the results that I wanted and see so many other women have had. I am a 69.
