Is liposuction enough to address webbing under my chin or do I need a neck lift / muscle repair? (photos)

Question

I’ve had this bit of fat/skin under my chin even when I was extremely thin. My jaw line is pretty defined but I hate how under my chin is not super tight. It looks like webbing or something. So I need to do a muscle repair or would lipo be enough? I’m only 26.

It's difficult to say without the benefit of a formal evaluation. This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Dear lipsandlaughs,
it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from chin lipo. If you are considering surgery, I would suggest you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination, you will get more information and recommendations.

Hello dear,
Thank you for the photos you've provided. I don't think you have a big chin it looks quite good but if you are unhappy about it you can try to have chin liposuction instead of lifts. You are so young and you look healthy, I believe your skin may retract after the liposuction. 
Be safe, be happy

Liposuction can only remove fat deposits above the platysma muscle, while a surgical neck lift is performed when there is sub-platysma fat deposits. A platysma plasty is performed to significantly improve the jawline. An in person exam will be required to make that determination
