I have hollowness in central neck after facelift/neck lift. What can be done? (photos)

Asked By:chessmom in Minneapolis, MN

I am 4.5 months post-FL/NL and have developed a central hollowness in the upper part of the neck. Submental liposuction was done, as was some form of platysmaplasty (not corset). I also have residual skin laxity on each side of the hollow area. I fear lipo might have been overdone, and this could now be a cobra deformity. I hope I’m wrong. What can be done to fix this? Thank you.
