Does anyone know how to get rid of these protruding neck cords that appeared after a necklift? (Photos)

Asked By:Strobelight in Colorado Springs, CO

I have tried botox, steroids, more surgeries, they come right back. I think it is making too much scar tissue because where my chin implant is, the incision looks like it is only a year old even though it has been 18 years! I have read about Dupuytren contracture & it is something like it, I believe. Who can help, how long of a procedure is it, can you get rid of it on the first try & how much would it cost? You would be an absolute hero to us! See pictures. Thank you!
