It's difficult to say without the benefit of a formal evaluation. This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.
Hello. Based on your photo, you have moderate to significant amount of fat. Options include liposuction, liposuction with neck lift, and Kybella injections. All these have their advantages and disadvantages. It's best you see a board certified surgeon for in office exam in order to learn what will work best for you. There are factors that can't be obtained from a photograph that only an office exam will obtain (i.e. skin elasticity, your neck anatomy and hyoid position, etc). With a good exam, your surgeon will be able to provide options and set the right expectations for results. Take care.
Hello. Thank you for your question. It is difficult to make a recommendation based on the limited view provided. It would be helpful to see full face and neck pictures from front and sides with the head and neck in a neutral position. The safest and best way to lose body fat is through proper diet and exercise. However, sometimes it is very difficult, even with these measures, to eliminate fat from some areas of the body. Everyone's body stores fat in different areas. Liposuction of the neck with, or without, a neck lift would likely provide the best result, depending on your age and skin elasticity. I would suggest a consultation with a board certified surgeon experience in face and neck rejuvenation to determine the best treatment plan for your individual case. I hope this information is helpful.
I would need more information to be able to give you the best answer. I would send more pictures from the front and side views. The picture you send to too close. I would also need to know your age.You options to improve this area are:1) Kybella2) Neck liposuction3) Neck lift4) Possible chin implant.Again, more pictures will help me give you more specific answers.I hope this helps.
It appears that liposuction would be your best option. It will remove some of the fat which will improve the neck contours. Some people are born with wider/fuller necks, and this may be part of the problem here as well.
By using your height and weight you can calculate your BMI. This can help you know how close to your ideal body weight you are. If you are above you IBW, then sensible diet and exercise can help you move toward it and the neck roll may decrease. If the neck roll remains even with a normal body weight, some focal liposuction may help with the contour. See a board certified plastic surgeon who can show you multiple before and after photos of neck improvement by liposuction. Good luck.
If your skin elasticity and quality are good, you might benefit from liposuction, which most surgeon are able to do under local anest without need for a hospital visit. There's also a medication called Kybella coming to market for injecting the area of fullness under the chin, it might be a good option for patients.
I would recommend SLIM lipo which is a form of laser liposuction. This is performed under local anesthesia. In addition to melting the fat, the laser also tightens the skin to some degree. The melted fat is then suctioned and removed. Use of a tight compression band for 2 weeks will help the skin re-tighten. good luck.
Likely your best bet is surgical: either liposuction or neck lift with liposuction.Kybella is another option
Hi, based upon the attached photo a combination of micro-liposuction of the excess fat and skin removal would seem appropriate. Depending on the amount of desired neck tightening, a formal Neck Lift may be required. Hope this helps.
