Hi! I (F31) wonder what procedures that would be recommended to improve my neck angle? I have always had a bit of excess skin around my jaw and neck but it has gotten worse after some weight loss. Would liposuction alone work or would a neck lift be necessary to get results somewhat similar to the pictures I have attached?
Answer: Definition An in person evaluation is needed to determine skin laxity. If you have mild to moderate laxity one option is Morpheus8. This treatment uses RF technology combined with microneedling to improve overall skin tone and texture. Typically three sessions are recommended. You can add jawline fillers as well to provide further definition.

Answer: Neck lift Liposuction alone will not achieve the results you show in the photos. However a neck lift will although you are generally quite young for this procedure. There are incisions around the ear but these heal very well.

Answer: Lipo Liposuction only addresses fat, so it will not do anything for excess skin, which you state is what you can feel and that's also what it looks like in your first photo. I wouldn't recommend for you to do that alone bc you don't look like you really have much fat. Your issue is more likely to be related to either skin and/or poor hyoid position.

Answer: Neck Lift or Liposuction in a Young Patient Liposuction is extremely effective in younger people in an effort to remove unwanted neck fat, whereas neck lifts are usually reserved for those who are older and who have a lot of sagging skin. It is impossible to determine from your photos if you would be a candidate for liposuction or a neck lift. I would instead advise you to meet with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine what is best. I like to caution young people from being too surgery oriented, because there are other issues that contribute to the neck angle, like how the strap muscles are inserted, where your submandibular salivary glands are located, etc. If you have lost a great deal of weight and have been left with definitive loose skin, it would be a contraindication to liposuction, and possibly a neck lift could be appropriate.
