Thank you for your question. If the skin under your chin is your main concern, you would likely benefit most from a neck lift surgery that targets this area directly. This procedure can lift and tighten loose skin while also addressing submental fat that may have accumulated under the chin. Tightening of the neck muscles, known as platysmal bands, along with the skin-tightening benefits of cervicoplasty may provide the firm, long-lasting results you’re looking for. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon who is qualified to assess your needs and help decide what procedure(s) would work best for you.
Thank you for your question! This is a common concern after fat removal, or weight loss, and the best way to address the loose skin is by repositioning it and removing any excess with a face lift. The scars are hidden within the natural creases of the year and are almost imperceivable at 1 year post op.
Thank you for your question! Yes, this can absolutely be corrected. When liposuction is used to remove unwanted or extra fat in the submental region, it is always possible for the body's natural aging process to be unable to retract on its own leaving behind excess skin. Depending on a full facial evaluation from a qualified physician, a treatment plan will be made to remove the excess skin that is causing the "turkey neck" appearance. This can be achieved with a neck lift, or possibly combined with other facial procedures depending on the overall state of the face/anatomy. It is important to find a provider who is qualified and knowledgeable in these procedures to ensure best results. Your physician should do a full facial evaluation, understand your goals, and provide the best treatment plan to get to your desired results.
Just based on the photos alone, you do appear to have loose skin that would best be treated with a neck lift. As a board certified plastic surgeon, I hear concerns like yours daily. Every plastic surgeon has his or her techniques to employ in surgery. I have developed a rather complex placement of sutures in the neck that suspend the tissues up toward the lower face, thereby creating a very clean, sharp jawline. The texture of your skin should also be addressed with laser resurfacing either at the same time as the neck lift, or during another visit. I recommend consulting in person with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss your concerns and expectations.
Since your photo shows loose skin and loose playtsma muscle bands (ridges), with intervening depressions from the suction, I think a standard necklift to tighten loose skin, tighten upward the saggy muscle bands, and smooth out any irregular fat deposits under direct vision would offer you the best options to create a smoother, firmer neck contour. This would require an incision behind both ears and a short horizontal incision just beneath the chin, and could be performed with local anesthesia and iv sedation.
Whether this condition is caused with liposuction, aging or combination of these, due to severe skin laxity and muscle bands face and neck lift would be my procedure of choice. In person consultation with a plastic surgeon with good reputation in face/neck lifts, is recommended. Good luck.
A facelift / necklift is going to be the right way to address that. We should get a good look at you from the front and side, and, will need to plan on likely releasing deep scars on the neck.
Hello!You would most benefit from a necklift. This would tighten neck skin and smooth the muscle bands that are visible. It would also create a nice crisp jawline. Nothing else will treat this area like a necklift will.Be sure to see a board certified plastic surgeon - you can find one at plasticsurgery.org.Best of luck to you!
Yes, either full face/neck lift or full neck lift can improve your issues as seen in the 1 posted photo. Fees from $12,000-$28,000. Best to seek in person or virtual consultations.
Thank you for your question and for submitting your photograph. In general, the degree of improvement achieved by non-surgical treatments is relatively modest on laxity and relatively thin neck skin. This is because the ability of the skin to recover following the trauma of treatments is much...
Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, it is impossible to provide you with any specific advise based on this single image, since it does not show a good view of the neck. I can tell you that in order to reduce your loose skin concerns along your jawline, you may consider a neck lift, which...
In your “before” photo, there is evidence of excessive fat under your chin. I also see that your jawline had pronounced jowling that manifests as a “W” shape on the jawline. These two areas have definitely been improved. What you might be seeing is that the fat under the jawline helped to mask...
