Will the skin under my neck tighten up after lipo? (Photo)

December 12, 2015
Asked By:DJ777 in Ottawa, ON

I'm 49. I had Ultherapy done 3 months ago and haven't seen any improvement yet. I have decided to have Lipo to get rid of the pocket of fat under my chin (being done in 5 days) as I discovered afterward that Ultherapy wouldn't really help that anyhow. My skin on my neck is loosening up as I age and I hate it. Will these two procedures be enough to tighten it and smooth it out or would I need something else also?
