Neck Lift for a Longer, Thinner, Neck?

FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime.​ Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure. I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

It's best to begin by consulting with a surgeon in-person to discuss your options. 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 what treatments will best rejuvenate your neck . During your initial examination, your chin will be evaluated along with the neck and jawline. A weak #chin implies a lack of 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.If you are not a candidate at the time of your #consultation, your board certified plastic surgeon can recommend alternatives to address your concern. Consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in #neck lift procedures is important to ensure you are receiving the best advice, care, and surgical experience possible.

Thank you for your question. The anatomy of the neck is limited in what options there to change the structure. Some fat can be removed in some cases, skin can be removed or tightened up if appropriate, and muscles can be tightened, but thinning out muscles are not always feasible. See a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and have an evaluation of options. I hope this helps.

        Pictures would be necessary to determine if a neck lift with fat removal and muscle tightening would be appropriate.  Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of necklifts and facial procedures each year.  Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.  Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Without pictures it is difficult to make recommendations. The two lumps may be referring to your submandibular glands which are salivary glands. Some people have prominent, or sagging glands which can make a neck lift problematic because they can detract from the overall result. I would consult with an experienced facial plastic surgeon to discuss treatment options.

 At age 24, a neck lift will be useful to remove fat above and below the platysma muscle. Make sure  you at your ideal body weight, and any diet resistant fat in the neck can certainly be removed.  A suggested BMI should be less than 34 before undergoing elective surgery in the neck.

I would doubt that you should consider a surgical procedure but would need to evaluate your neck and see photos to tell for certain.
