Sagging neck, poor chin - Is there one procedure to fix this or is it multiple? (photo)

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Based on your photos, you appear to have a relatively under projected chin appearance, and this is associated with excess fat underneath your chin. When these procedures are combined, people can see dramatic improvements in the appearance of their chin, neck, and jawline, with minimal inconvenience and downtime. Thank you for this question! Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Addressing a sagging neck and a recessed chin often requires a combination of procedures for the best results. While some improvements can be achieved with a single procedure, a combination approach is often recommended for optimal contouring.

Here are some options:

Chin Augmentation (Implant or Filler): Enhances chin projection, which can improve the jawline and overall balance of the face.
Neck Liposuction: Removes excess fat under the chin and along the neck to create a more defined profile.
Neck Lift: Tightens sagging skin and underlying muscles for a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Radiofrequency or Ultrasound Treatments: Non-surgical options like Morpheus8 or Ultherapy can help tighten mild to moderate skin laxity.
In many cases, combining chin augmentation with neck liposuction or a neck lift can dramatically improve the jawline and facial harmony. A consultation with a plastic surgeon or cosmetic dermatologist will help determine the best approach based on your anatomy and goals.
