Can my chin/neck be pulled back? (Photo)

Thank you for your question. You are an excellent candidate for the Laser-Assisted Weekend Necklift. By combining liposculpture, neck lifting, and laser resurfacing, the Laser-Assited Weekend Necklift tailors the most innovative technology to the patient's needs while providing a stronger jawline and more confident appearance after a 1.5 hour surgery and a short recovery time. Please consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.Best wishes,

You have an obtuse angle to your neck that results from hanging skin and fat.  The structures in the neck include skin, fat, and platysmal muscle. Each of those can be addressed separately, or in a group, and can be moved in an upward-and-backward direction to restore a sharper neckline of youth, giving you a more acute (and aesthetically appealing) angle. 

There are definitely options for you to add definition to your jawline and chin.  That includes everything you see mentioned by others, including liposuction.  But to me it looks like you do not have favorable anatomy to expect large changes.  Your larynx/hyoid complex appears low and somewhat anterior, meaning that even in the best case scenario you will still have a limited response to any surgical procedure.  So whatever procedure you consider, make sure you have a realistic conversation with your surgeon.

A neck lift is possible but I suggest VASER/ThermiRF combination to get great results with very little downtime.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your
photograph, you are a great candidate for chin contouring.  If you skin elasticity is good (which is appears to be based on your photo), then liposuction may work well for you.  The only way to evaluate skin elasticity is with an in-person examination. The most important aspect is to find
a surgeon you are comfortable with. With good surgical technique, you could
have an outstanding result. I recommend that you seek consultation with a
qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person.
Best wishes and good luck.
