Treatments to Restore Collagen and Elasticity After Face Lift Surgeries?

March 23, 2009
Asked By:onebamalady in Florida, FL

I had a Roux-en-Y done in 1999 and have lost 186 pounds. In Feb of 2009, I had a Lifestyle Lift done in Atlanta, GA. The neck work was an add-on option that I chose to have along with the upper and lower eyes and the mid-facial lift. I am not totally unhappy as there is a huge improvement BUT the skin after six weeks still has crepe-like look to it in the region the under chin, where it meets the neckline neck area. Is there anything that will help to firm this skin and restore some collagen and elasticity?
