Loose Skin Under Chin After Lower Lift (Photos)

April 25, 2013

Follow up to this question. It's been about 16 months since my lower, or what my doctor called, a subtle facelift because I didn't have a lot of jowling or loose skin; unfortunately, I have it now. I had some lipo under my chin and the scar is pretty jagged and the loose, bumpy skin is visible from one side of my face. I could tell a week after surgery that something was not right. My surgeon doesn't share my concern. Is there anything that can be done, short of revision? Steroid injection or a tightening laser?
