Adam's apple and "cobra neck" after deep plane FL and NL? (Photo)

Thank you for your photo. It does not appear that the media bands of your platysma muscle were sutured together to create a uniform muscle layer across your entire neck. It would be important to know from your operative report whether any subplatysmal fat was removed or not. However, the bands of your platysma could be suture together through an incision beneath your chin and it should help to improve your neck contour in that area. Best wishes.

Too much fat was removed in the center of the neck. That has led to hollowing and this cobra neck plus the overly visible Adam's apple. We can address this with redraping the skin, restoring fat, and possibly reducing the Adam's apple.

You have a lack of deep submental, fat and prominent digastric muscles, which are causing your cobra. This is Also causing your thyroid Cartilage(Adams Apple) To show. It may be necessary to either augment fat or pull a flap of fat up into the area and to either trim or reset your digastric muscles.
