Can a neck lift fix my obtuse neck? Or is a low hyoid causing it? (photos)

March 16, 2024
Asked By:nearly40fixme in Kansas

6 months post double jaw surgery, I've noticed no improvement in my neck-chin angle or jowls. A key concern and motivation for the surgery. Possibly due to being older than the typical patient. Using tights, I simulated a desired tighter and better neck to chin angle. Could a neck lift, facelift, and lipo help achieve this look, or might further jaw advancement be necessary? I'm wondering if a low hyoid bone is factor but but I’m curious if improvement with tights simulates a neck lift
