I have developed a turkey neck look and can't stand how old it makes me look. Plenty of magazines suggest alternatives to getting neck lift surgery. Do any of these seem worth trying instead of plastic surgery? tightening cream like L’Oreal’s Collagen Skin Re-Modeller accent laser restylane

Answer: Non-surgical neck lift Thank you for your question about non-surgical neck lift.There are many different ways to treat the neck non-surgically. There are some creams that have peptides to help rebuild collagen. Lasers such as the Sciton Halo can help the skin regenerate collagen to minimize lines and tighten skin. Also, Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) microneedling will also help your skin regenerate collagen. Sometimes the muscles in your neck (Platysmal bands) can flex causing the skin to lift and look like sagging skin. Botox can relax these muscles with a procedure often referred to as a "Nefertiti Lift". If it is less about loose or crepe-like skin, and more about a small amount of fat under the chin....then Kybella may be the choice for you. To be sure, see two or more experienced, licensed and board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Answer: Neck Lift Without Surgery The presence of banding down the front of the #neck, and, amount of excess skin and condition of your skin are among some factors which determine if you are a #candidate for #rejuvenating the neck. During the examination the chin will be evaluated along with the neck and jawline. A weak #chin means there is not adequate chin support for the skin along the neck line. In younger individuals a chin implant alone is usually all that is needed to improve the appearance of the neck. Subsequently, it will also improve the overall balance of the face and can create the illusion of a smaller nose. As a stand-alone procedure, chin augmentation can be performed in the office under local anesthesia. For individuals with signs of aging in the neck, a chin implant added to one of the recommended procedures above, will provide optimal results.The best neck #lift surgeon will evaluate both your anatomical features and aesthetic goals to determine which neck lift procedure best suits your individual needs. In some cases your plastic surgeon may give you more than one option to choose from. If you are not a candidate at the time of your #consultation, your board certified plastic surgeon can recommend non-surgical alternatives to address your concern.

Answer: Non invasive skin tightening treatments Thank you for your question. One option you can consider trying is Ulthereapy. It is a non-invasive procedure to the neck and under chin, as well as the eyebrow. It is an FDA cleared procedure. Basically, Ultherapy is a non-surgical ultrasound treatment that counteracts the effects of time/gravity on your skin. Best of luck!Dhaval M.
