I hate the way my skin looks on my neck and décolletage. It has a chronic reddened appearance and there are bumps all over it. It is also saggy looking compared my face. What can I do to improve the appearance of my neck and décolletage?

Answer: Saggy Neck And Texture/Color of Decolletage Let's first discuss your neck. Based on your photo, and without the opportunity to examine you in person, it appears that you might benefit from a neck lift to address the sagginess that you state you dislike. With a neck lift, a neat, clean jawline and smooth neck area is produced via surgical techniques that snug the skin and, if necessary, address the platysmal bands. In regard to the skin of your decolletage, a laser treatment would be advisable to address the color and texture. With these two modalities, an improved appearance of your neck and chest area is obtainable. Please, however, be very careful in doing your research to find a board certified plastic surgeon with years of experience on the face (not just the body). Read his or her reviews, and study his or her educational background and hospital affiliation. Some surgeons will also conduct consultations over the phone, so you do not necessarily need to be confined to your geographic region.

Answer: Neck Re Thank you for your question. Neck Rejuvenation is often used in conjunction with a Concept™ Facelift, in order to provide rejuvenation to the whole area. Younger patients with tight skin elasticity may be able too just have neither face lift and neck lift, however normally when patients lose skin elasticity facelift and neck lift will be combined to ensure continuity. Neck Rejuvenation can include tightening the platysma muscle which can be an extra procedure which some patients may need to ensure a tight contour neck. Tightening of the platysma muscle (also know as platysmaplasty) will require a small incision under the chin away from direct view to gain access to the front edge of the muscle on the neck; they are sutured together with permanent stitches. The muscles of the neck are the foundations and building blocks of the neck are fundamental to achieving a tight and toned result. Alternatively, some patients may need neck liposuction, for those who have excess fat under the chin. Overall, to obtain the best results a combination of neck rejuvenation procedure maybe needed. I perform my facelift and neck lift under local anaesthetic, meaning minimal bruising and swelling is experienced by patients. This significantly reduces the recovery time experienced, therefore patients being able to return to their daily lives with public view within 5-7 days. This is why it is important to have a comprohensive consultation with a reputable and qualified plastic surgeon who can assess you properly to give you a realistic idea of what outcome you can achieve.Best Wishes
