I am 48 yrs old. . My neck is sagging and skin has become very crepey. Skin is thin on my neck. Will a lower facelift and or neck lift fix this. Posting again as I did not post the best pics on first post. I was told by two doctors That I was not a candidate for neck lift as scars would be worse than the state of my neck. I hate looking at myself. Any advice appreciated
Answer: Crepe like neck skin Lower face and neck lift definitely helps with that but there is a skin surface issue of wrinkling involved as well. For that you need a skin resurfacing laser. The surgery followed by the laser is the best option.

Answer: Facelift / neck lift I would have though that a neck lift would be helpful for you but if your skin is very thin this can be a risk for wound / skin healing so it may be the case that the surgeons you saw previously considered this to be a risk not worth taking

Answer: Lower face and neck The photos that you have provided show that you have very early jowl formation. The neck appears slim with fullness directly under the chin and some skin excess. From a surgical position, the only relaible way to address changes to the lower face and neck is with with a full face and lower neck lift. This surgery will address any jowls as well as fullness in the neck.Alternatively, a neck lift alone procedure can be done, however, as facial aging proceeds the jowls will be come more apparent.You may wish to defer surgery until the future when the natural changes of facial aging become more apparent.

Answer: Lower facelift or necklift ? The answer to this is both ! These procedures compliment each other. A scar is needed under the chin but this heals very well and is imperceptible in the long term. The neck is corrected by tightening the muscle in the neck called the platysma using a procedure called a platysmaplasty. The skin is redraped and tightened together with the facelift which means scars around the ear but again once healed you will hardly see these. A deep plane facelift is the most effective for providing the best results and for longevity. In essence the proble you have is treatable. There are examples of similar cases and worse cases on my website and here on my realself profile.

Answer: Crepey neck skin A neck lift will lift and tighten the skin on the neck. It will not improve the quality of the skin.
