I had NeckTite 3 months ago. At my final follow up yesterday I expressed concern about the embarrassing loose skin that has not tightened. He said to get Botox and attributed this to the 6 pounds I have lost in 3 months. I paid him a lot of money to get this procedure, which he suggested. Is this how I’m supposed to look or should he fix it?

Answer: Full results take time! Thanks for including photos with your question! All radiofrequency devices take time for your full results to express. We usually tell patients to expect 6-9 months for total expression (generally, you heal about 10% per month internally). However, post-op requirements can make a big difference in your outcome as well; did your surgeon give you a compression garment to wear? If so, what was the timing like? As mentioned below, FaceTite is not going to achieve surgical results. Improvement is the goal, and acknowledgement that lesser results are the trade-off for lesser scars and downtime. Without before photos it's hard to assess the degree of improvement, but 6 pounds should not result in a tremendous amount of loose skin in just that particular area.Stay in touch with your surgeon and discuss your aftercare, and how you can bests optimize your results from here out. Should you still be unhappy with that area in 6-9 months, perhaps discuss a minor surgical option that will address that specific area. Best of luck!
