Still having choking feeling two years after face/neck lift. How can I stop it from happening?

Question

It's been almost two years since my face/neck lift and I still feel like I'm being strangled. Can you please say what can be done to stop it? Is it possible to reverse a neck lift? The help is greatly appreciated.

This is the solution, find an experience surgeon in neck lifts, ask him to carry out an horizontal myotomy to decompress the platysma muscle, partial or total , if possible under local and sedation so you can guide him how far he should decompress the muscle at the very right moment you don't feel the choking feel.No need to revers the lift.

What does your doctor say?This is not typical of a neck lift.Is there anything that looks funny about your neck or does it look "normal to you?specifically is your neck smooth or is the skin irregular?I think your case needs to be seen by an experienced surgeon.If it is a pain syndrome fat grafting may help.Best of luck..................
