Asked By:Cool1733 in Los Angeles, CA

Hello! I'm looking to create a stronger jawline with more projection. A plastic surgeon suggested the following treatment: Full Neck + Lower Face Lift [Dr. will improve and enhance your neck and jawline contours by reducing full central fat and muscle (digastric), tightening the platysma muscle layer, contouring your jawline and elevating the corners of your mouth]. Is it dangerous to reduce the muscles in the neck this way? I want to avoid any especially risky or problematic procedures.
