Hi, I had smart and liposuction added onto my Lipo 360. It has been about 2 1/2 years and I have wrinkly skin and little bands. Is this normal? Can I change the look of my neck or chin? I have gained and lost the same 10 pounds but never overweight, not sure if that effects how my chin has healed. Thank you
Answer: Recommend doing A combination of Morpheus8 and Ultherapy can help reduce appearance of unwanted fat and define the jawline Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Answer: You may require platysma plasty. I believe we are seeing platysma bands underneath your neck after Neck liposuction. If your overall neck and jawline appearance is improved, it may be best to live with this. It is also possible that Botox injections into these bands may be helpful. The other non-invasive modality that could provide some benefit might be Morpheus 8. I hope this helps. Sincerely, Dr. Joseph

Answer: Neck rhytids Rhytids after neck liposuction are not uncommon. A tightening procedure in the neck would be recommended like a neck lift.

Answer: Neck bands and skin Hello and thank you for your question. The quality of the skin as well as neck bands are in normal result of aging and weight loss, even if moderate. Having previously undergone neck liposuction, which removes the under-skin fat that rests on top of the muscle will make the muscle (platysma) bands more visible. However, what you are seeing is a result of gravity, time, weight loss, and loss of skin elasticity. If bothersome to you, these can be addressed with a neck lift. I recommend seeing a board-certified Plastic Surgeon to help better guide you on your journey!

Answer: Concern of Neck Appearance after Surgery It's not uncommon to have some skin texture changes and irregularities following liposuction or other similar procedures, especially as the body continues to age and change. Factors such as weight fluctuations, age, and genetics can all play a role in how your skin heals and maintains its elasticity post-procedure.
