Im worried about this procedure but I'd like to have it done as turkey neck runs in my family. Would this make my pre jowls look worse? Will it affect the shape of my lower face by repairing the muscle? Am I an appropriate candidate for this procedure. It makes me nervous because its close to the face. Please let me know your thoughts. This time I've included photos. Thank you kindly

Answer: Surgery for neck chords A platysmaplasty is required to repair the seperation of your platysma muscle in the center under your chin. This can be performed with or without skin removal and will be determined by your surgeon.

Answer: Anterior neck lift You should not be worried too much. It is very likely that you will have a satisfactory correction just with an anterior plication of platisma muscle bands and wide undermining of neck skin. You do not have jowls; possibly conservative liposuction along a jaw line with small cannula? A small scar in front and behind ears will make it lower face/neck lift which may address all you concerns?Keep talking to your surgeon, you are on a good path. Good luck.
