I have the opposite issue, my neck is too thin, and the muscles are really prominent. I'd like to know the cost to correct my problem.
Answer: Thin skin of the neck and your options This is a problem which has no easy solution. In most instances we interpret thin skin as loose skin and we perform a neck lift. However, if thin skin is the real problem, one of the only products available to thicken the dermis is retin-A. The neck can be very sensitive to this and some patients require building a tolerance with retinol type products first before progressing to the lowest dose or Retin-A. Discuss this option with your dermatologist.

Answer: Facial Sculpting Candidate -- Fillers, Threads, Fat Transfer, Implants, See an expert It's difficult to say without the benefit of a formal evaluation. This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Thin skin on the neck If you have such thin skin in this area, no thickening from Fraxel laser would be enough to hide the muscle bands. Surgical lifting might be the only appropriate treatment to provide you with a good result. Please see a plastic surgeon for a consultation.

Answer: The neck cord muscles can be excised and improve the look The thinness of the skin can't be improved. The muscle cords can be excised at the same time as the neck is tightened with a neck lift to improve the aged look of the neck.

Answer: Neck shape, aging, fillers, fat grafting Dear Golf_laquinta Thank you for your question! There is no easy solution for a thin neck. Fillers and fat grafting may cause irregularities so I would approach this with caution. I have seen results of Sculptra in the neck--both excellent and disasterous. This would require a very skilled and experienced injector--but personally I would be very reticent to perform this.
