The neck lift, buccal fat removal, and chin implant or the 2 BBLs first?

Melxx101Aug 31, 2024
I plan on having a deep plane neck lift, buccal fat removal and a chin implant. I also plan on having two BBLs done, where I might have to gain a bit of weight in between the two BBLs, but I’m not sure. What procedures should I get done first? The neck lift, buccal fat removal, and chin implant or the two BBLs? If I had to gain 5 or 10 pounds for a second BBL, would the weight gain affect my neck lift results?

Liposuction with the micro canulas under local and the facetite/morpheus skin tightening will make a huge improvement and is so easy to undergo with only 1 day downtime. Cost is roughly $5000 and so worth it.

This is a cobra neck deformity with also some excess loose skin overlying it. The solution is revisionary neck-lift surgery. I would recommend a complete revision facelift/necklift as the extra skin must be pulled into the face and/or around the ears.

Absolutely, best option is to come in for a complimentary consultation so we can asses in person and be able to grab at the skin. Pictures can be hard to detect, but another option would be microneedling skinpen to help stimulate collagen and bring up sagging skin. Another option is skin care...
