I had a chin implant 10 years ago and he surgeon did a liposuction under the chin. The implant was wonderful but I have ripples under the chin. What treatment would help me?
Answer: Neck Lift Gee, I'm sorry about that. It appears that the skin in the neck area is going to have to be removed. A neck lift can help you with that. Done well, it will take about 3 hours and will leave you with a nice, smooth neck line that is well defined and elegant. That said, in these cases you might want to consider combining it with a lower face lift because a lot of the same work and incisions will be necessary.Good Luck!

Answer: Ripples after chin liposuction Unfortunately the skin in this area will need to be undermined and removed via a necklift. The area is too large for effective fat grafting. Direct excision of skin is also a possibility, but this can leave an unsightly scar. Conventional necklift is your best option.

Answer: What treatment would help ripples under the chin from a bad liposuction? Thank you for your picture and questions. This type of appearance is usually the result of over-aggressive liposuction in the neck which results in scar adhesion to the underlying muscle and the skin. This is usually going to require a neck lift to fix and there may also be a role for scar release and fat grafting in the area. Discuss with a local plastic surgeon who is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.Best of luck!Dallas R.

Answer: Skin abnormalities It is difficult to tell from the picture but it does look like the skin has some abnormalities from ovver aggressive liposuction. A neck lift would take about 3-4 hours and cost ~7000. This might be your best option to correct it.

Answer: Tightening Treatment Options Thank you for your question, if you are looking for a minimally invasive procedure I would consider Accutite. Accutute is the newest form of precise skin tightening. The AccuTite is the smallest minimally-invasive radio-frequency contraction device with the most number of clinical studies and peer-reviewed publications backing its safety and efficacy. Patients who need skin contraction now have a new solution that can be in an office setting, in less than 15 minutes, without excisional surgery. I suggest an in-person consultation with a board-certified dermatologist to go over your options. Best of luck!
