My neck is tight and I have no jowls but want my profile to look tighter under the chin, from the side view. No fat under neck either. Think its loose skin. What is best option?

Answer: Options for platysma bands Thanks for sharing. In general, current neck and lower face rejuvenation treatments include:Surgical Neck lift* with a Lower Facelift would be the gold standard and gets the best overall results in the jowls and neckSurgical Neck lift* which removes skin would be the next best procedureNeck liposuction and/or laser lipolysis if only fat removal is required, typically in a younger patient. (A platysmaplasty can be added for further muscle tightening)Ultherapy is an FDA approved non invasive tightening using ultrasound technologyKybella is a new FDA approved injection that melts fat under the chinBotox to the platysma bands to decrease their activity and show*It is important the a Neck lift involves some liposuction and importantly a platysmaplasty which is a procedure that tightens the underlying loose neck muscles. Based on your description, i feel you may be a good candidate for a platysmaplasty or just botox to address the platysma muscle edges you are likely describing.

Answer: Neck bands and their treatment? By the time someone has neck bands present they usually have excess skin in their cheeks as well. Therefore the best treatment is a full facelift. A neck lift usually does not address the cheek which will have to be done shortly there after. Make sure you see a very experienced facelift surgeon on produces natural results and not the pulled look
