Do I need incision under my chin? (Photo)

February 19, 2024
Asked By:dawn6439 in Miami, Florida

I was under the impression I needed incisions in front of and behind ears as well as under the chin for a deep plane face and neck lift. However, someone suggested because I am thin, my neck can be significantly lifted and tightened by the same incisions around the ears. Thoughts?
