I'm 32 years old and have the most annoying neck rolls. Even when I am in really great shape, they are still there. Is there anything I can do to address them?
Answer: Improving Neck Rolls--VASER, ThermiRF I find that properly formed liposuction can help improve this. I recommend VASER with ThermiRF to remove the fat, lift the skin, and contour the jawline. I pretreat everyone with Botox 1-2 weeks before surgery to relax the neck muscles, allowing for better retraction of the skin after surgery. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Can I get rid of my neck rolls? Liposuction carefully performed with small cannulae can improve those areas if fatty deposits are the cause.

Answer: Treatments to Get Rid of Neck Rolls Thank you for the inquiry and photos. A consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon would be helpful to evaluate the amount of fat around the neck and what treatment modality would be optimal. Liposuction would be a reasonable option, but there are also non-surgical options such as Kybella injections. Given your age and appearance of skin elasticity I would expect there to be good retraction of overlying skin after surgical or non-surgical options.

Answer: #neckRolls The problem is attachment of the skin to the platysma muscle and fat deposition between the attachments. The solution is to lower the hills and raise the valleys i.e. liposuction of the rolls, release the attachments and fat graft as needed into the creases. Positioning the access sites for the cannula where they will be least visible is imperative and release of the lower crease is more difficult because the jaw and collar bone limit angling of the cannula.I hope you realize that this format of posting questions and receiving answers lacks the face to face direct communication required for you to make an informed decision regarding your surgery.My response to your question/post does not represent formal medical advice or constitute a doctor patient relationship. You need to consult with i.e. personally see a board certified plastic surgeon in order to receive a formal evaluation and develop a doctor patient relationship in order to know if this assessment is valid.
