Which procedure would be best for correcting my turtle neck? Is a lift the only option? 41 y/o, 128 lbs (photos)

Asked By:jjeanc in Los Angeles, California

I had 3 rounds of Kybella over the course of 2021 and 2022 and while there was improvement, I still have a terrible turtle neck, especially when I look down. Wondering what my options are here. Is a neck lift the only option? Is the issue just excess skin or also muscle? I am 41, 5'5" and 128lbs, and my weight has always been between 125 and 135 (except at my most active at age 24 when I was around 120 lbs, and even then I had this issue).
