I inherited my mom's turkey neck. I'm a vegetarian and want nothing to do with turkey. Any suggestions? (photos)

Double Chin Treatment -- SmartLipo, Botox, Venus LegacyI treat this everyday in my practice. You do not need surgery. Properly performed liposuction with laser and physical fat removal will do fantastic to remove the fat, lift the skin, and contour the jawline. I pretreat everyone with Botox 1-2 weeks before surgery to relax the neck muscles, allowing for better retraction of the skin after surgery. Then after treatment we do skin tightening with Venus Legacy to improve the results and decrease the neck swelling. I suggest you only see an expert for treatment of this area as a meticulous surgeon is required to get great results and complications in this area can be devastating both medically and cosmetically. Best, Dr. Emer. 

Hi and thanks for posting your quration and photo. Based on what I can see and your age you would be a great candidate for liposuction. In my practice I would also add Smartlipo which is laser lipolysis to help with additional fat melting and skin tightening. Please consult with an experienced board certified facial plastic or plastic surgeon to help you with your decision. 

Your neck looks like you might only need a liposuction. A necklift is needed if the surgeon thinks the neck skin won't shrink. 

There are several options to improve this. The good news (surmised from these limited photos) is you seem to have a good skeletal foundation.  Your options include the use of a variety of minimally invasive devices such as RF and ultrasound based ( the good news is that they are relatively inexpensive, the bad news is that the results will be variable).  The options I would gravitate toward would either be to perform liposuction or liposuction combined with a limited or short-scar facelift.  I would tend to perform one or both of these procedures since I believe your result will be more predictable and longer lasting.Good luck and make the best decision you feel you can with the best qualified surgeon you are able to see!Fred Fedok, MD FACS

Based on your photos, I would say that liposuction under your chin should improve your problem.  At your age, I would say that the skin should be elastic enough to tighten after the procedure.  

Hi rayna775. Thanks for your question. Surgical options for the neck include liposuction or a necklift. The best option depends on your muscle & skin laxity, which needs to be evaluated in person. In addition, a chin implant can be performed if you have a weak chin. I would recommend an in person consultation for the best evaluation & recommendations. Good luck. Best, Dr H 

As long as the skin tone is acceptable, a neck lift can be performed. This involves removal of the fat above and below the platysma muscle along with a platysma plasty to give further definition to the jawline and neck area. For many examples and more information, please see the link and the video below

  Hi, from the attached photos there appears to excess fat and skin in the neck.  While the mid-face region is not fully visible, I get the impression that some jowls are also present.  In this scenario some form of a facelift with attention to the neck is indicated.  My most popular facelift is the minimally invasive, short incision facelift that has all the benefits of more invasive facelifts (traditional, mid-face and subperiosteal facelifts) but with these added benefits:•very small incisions•minimal tissue dissection = less bruising and swelling = rapid recovery•can be performed in 90 minutes or less, with or without general anesthesia•no incisions within the hair = no hair loss•excess fat can be removed•excess skin removed•cheeks, chin and jaw line can be augmented with dermal fillers (I prefer Perlane) or facial implants•most patients fly back home to parts all over the world in as little as 3 days post-opHope this helps.

As long as you don't have lax skin liposuction of your neck would improve your neck contour.  Without a true lateral photograph I can't be sure, but it looks like you may not have adequate chin projection. If you don't a chin implant would improve your neck and jawline.
