Dr here says he can fix minor loose neck skin with incisions ONLY behind ear. Is that true? Will that work for me? I have minor loose skin (this is not muscle it is skin) from rapid (not massive) weight loss.
Answer: How To Improve Your Neck After carefully examining your photos, I can see you have neck-skin laxity. The answer to your question depends on what you consider “fixed.” There are non-invasive treatments that might provide temporary, minimal improvement, but to substantially correct your issue, I would suggest a neck lift with sutures beautifully hidden behind the ears. This is a procedure I frequently perform I my practice with an incredibly high success rate. The incisions will be nearly invisible if performed by a highly skilled and seasoned board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Neck bands Thank you for your question. I evaluate your pictures and the banding of the neck is due to the contraction of the playtime muscle and that is treated under the chin nothing to do with the skin. The approach is from and incision behind the ear and other under your chin.

Answer: Incisions for a Neck Lift I appreciate your question. In a case of rapid weight loss like yours, surgical excision of excess skin is usually necessary to achieve the best possible result. While you can perform this procedure with incisions behind the ears only, it doesn’t tend to produce the most effective result and the improvements may not last as long. I typically add a small incision under the chin that allows me access to the platysma to give the skin the best support for a natural result. Make sure you are working with a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in this procedure to ensure the outcome you achieve meets your expectations.

Answer: Mini Facelift & Mini neck lift -- FaceTite RF for internal skin tightening + Neck Liposuction for definition/contouring 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

Answer: Neck lift , scar , neck bands , platysma bands Dear RecoveringSelf Thank you for your questions and photos! It would be best for the areas of concern to be assessed in person. Small incision surgery can give good results - but the longevity may not remain.With Warm RegardsTrevor M Born MD
