Is it possible for someone's neck to sag more after a neck lift?

Asked By:Correct777 in Los Angeles, California

Is there any risk of a neck lift making a neck sag more? If a surgeon were to release ligaments /muscle and reattach them incorrectly or poorly, could it cause the neck to be reattached in a saggier position?
