What is the Best Revision /correction for Treating a Cobra Neck Deformity?

Spokane6975
I had a lower facelift that included smart lipo under chin and playtsmal tightening 7 months ago. I now believe I have a cobra deformity based on significant research. My ps gave me a thermage treatment 2 months ago with minimal/ no improvement. I will be seeing my ps next week. I have read that correcting this deformity s very challenging. Some suggest a reverse facelift and others suggest fat grafting to fill in the hollows. I am in good health, a good weight, do not smoke. I am 57 years old.
