What can I do to slim down my neck? (photos)

Hello, and thank you for your question regarding how to slim down your neck. Thank you for your history in your pictures. Since you want to lose another 20 pounds, lose the weight first and then reevaluate your neck. You may lose fat in the neck region. However, if the neck remains the same as shown in the pictures, you may need neck VASER liposuction. Since you’re only 34 years old, the skin will probably contract. Alternatively, you may consider an Endolift. An Endolift uses a laser to melt the fat and contract the skin. However, if you undergo an Endolift, you may need several treatments. Alternatively, if, after your 20-pound weight loss, you are left with rolls of skin and little fat, you would probably do better with a neck lift. During a neck lift, an incision is made around the ear. Tissue dissection is performed to the jawline and neckline. The redundant neck skin is lifted and redraped. The neck then becomes more defined. Therefore, in conclusion, most plastic surgeons would suggest you lose the weight and evaluate the neck. The options are VASER neck liposuction, Endolift, or a neck lift. These options depend on what your neck looks like after a 20-pound weight loss. Good luck. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen, MD, MBA, FACS, FICS.

Thank you for your question. There are three aspects to consider.

The girth of the neck in the front can be significantly influenced with surgery, and the deep plane neck lift is the solution that provides the most powerful change.

In the lateral part of the neck, it is possible to do a small amount of liposuction, mostly in the upper half.

In the back of the neck, in general, it is just weight loss that will make a significant impact.

Before undergoing any type of neck surgery, you need to get down to your ideal body weight with a BMI of 31 to 32. You have fat deposits located both above and below your plasma muscle, which is going to require a neck lift with a plasma plasty.

Hi Amayataina19, If you are planning on loosing more weight, I suggest you provide recent pictures after loosing all the weight you are trying to loose, before providing you with a recommendation. Skin tends to change when you loose certain amount of weight.
