You are younger than most who have such a degree of skin laxity on your neck, but that is probably due to genetics. The only real solution is to permanently tighten the plastysmal muscle on the neck and remove excess, sagging skin through a neck lift. It's a simple, outpatient procedure that takes about an hour or two. You'll recover within a week and your rejuvenated neck and jawline will last for years. I hope this helps.
"These are all natural parts of the aging process. What we can do is try preventative treatments or get a neck lift / face lift earlier in the aging process. There are numerous non-surgical options available, and some can be used in combination to get best outcomes, but you would need a consultation with an expert.Some options for skin tightening include:- Thermage radiofrequency to heat the skin, tighten it over time, and prevent the aging process- Ultherapy high-intensity ultrasound to contract the muscle, tighten the face and neck, and prevent the aging process- PDO NovaThreads or InstaLift threads for immediate lifting without surgery and long-term collagen production- Sculptra injections for collagen production to areas of the face and neck with crepey skin or early sagging- BTL Exilis Ultra, Venus Legacy, and Thermi250 for monthly collagen stimulation with facials- ThermiRF, Renuvion (J Plasma), or Inmode BodyTite for internal heating and tightening with or without surgery- Fillers (or facial implants) to contour the jawline and chin to improve the appearance of the neck- Face lift / neck lift with fat grafting and fillers if you need a significant improvementI would suggest getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist.

A neck lift is a general term used for rejuvenating the neckline to create a more youthful attractive appearance. Factors which are considered during your consultation to determine if you are a #candidate for #rejuvenating the neck include: •Visibility and amount of excess fat below the chin and along the neckline.•The presence of banding down the front of the #neck.•The amount of #excess skin and condition of your skin.•Chin Deficiency.•Presence of Prominent Digastric Muscles (a.k.a. submandibular gland fullness).Patients who desire facial rejuvenation that is affordable, quick, and effective should also consider the Lite-lift™. Like the Life-Style™ facelift, this is a modified facelift, individualized for each patient, that can be performed in the office with a local anesthetic and improve signs of aging around the neck, jawbone and lower face. These procedures are not "Thread-lifts" or "String-lifts". We do not use the "barbed" sutures employed in these other lifting operations. The Lite-lift™ uses longer lasting techniques that are discussed below. Because the incisions are limited, there is less bruising, swelling and healing time for most patients. Many patients can be back to work in one to two weeks looking rested and more youthful.The best candidates for #LiteLift are non-smoking patients 35-60 years old with early changes of the lower face and the neck. But whose skin has elasticity with well defined bone structure. Older patients who cannot or do not wish to have a longer operation or general anesthetic can be improved with a Lite Lift™. If you are not a candidate at the time of your #consultation, your board certified plastic surgeon can recommend non-surgical alternatives to address your concern. Consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in #neck lift procedures is important to ensure you are receiving the best advice, care, and surgical experience possible.
Your problem is quite common.Your case is the best example, however of a young patient "hoping" for a non-surgical alternative, seeking one out and then being disappointed. A Neck-lift is a relatively minimally invasive procedure which dollar for dollar will give you the nicest and longest lasting result.Best wishes.
I would recommend a neck lift for your condition. Make sure a platysmaplasty is done as well. Also, get a complete evaluation from a qualified surgeon.
