Will a neck lift help me? (Photo)

Thank you for your pics and questions. There is no question that a facelift/necklift would give you the absolute best results and contour. You are likely a good candidate for this. If you are looking for a less invasive procedure, there may be options out there including FaceTite, MyEllevate, or others. See a board certified plastic surgeon in your area for a consult!

Thank you for submitting your question and photos. You may be a candidate for a mini facelift to reduce the skin laxity you’re referring to. This procedure can revitalize your appearance by tightening your skin, removing excess skin, and angulating your jawline.
The results from a mini facelift can last for up to eight years or more. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon. They will be able to discuss your concerns and aesthetic goals with you to determine the procedure that may be right for you.

With significant neck sagging you would need a facelift / neck lift with muscle tightening (platysmaplasty). At the same time, I would recommend lasers (Fraxel, CO2, Halo, or Erbium) and microneedling RF (Fractora, Morpheus8, PiXel8, Intensif) to improve the crepey skin and wrinkles. Overall, the neck can be treated with a combination approach:

1. Microneedling and laser treatments for texture
2. Botox, Dysport, Xeomin or Jeuveau to help platysmal bands
3. Intensif, Fractora, PiXel8, or Morpheus8 microneedling RF for crepey skin and lifting
4. Injectable fillers like Belotero, Restylane Silk, Versa, and Juvederm Volbella to improve lines and folds
5. Face/neck lifting if sagging is prominent or premature, with or without platysmaplasty (muscle tightening)
6. Renuvion (J-Plasma), ThermiRF, and InMode FaceTite/AccuTite for internal tightening
7. Ultherapy and Thermage for external tightening
8. Regular Venus Legacy, Exilis Ultra, or InMode Forma treatments with facials to maintain tightness
9. PDO NovaThreads or Silhouette InstaLift cone threads for lifting and long-term collagen production
