Do I need chin lipo again or a neck lift? (Photo)

Much more information is needed, such as a better set of photographs from all angles, in addition to your height and weight. If you have excess fat deposits below the platysma muscle, then a surgical neck lift is going to be required to Remove that compartment of fat which liposuction cannot accomplish. A platysma-plasty is also performed to significantly improve the jawline. At age 23, your skintone is acceptable and no skin removal is required.

To make an assessment on the outcome of a plastic surgery procedure we always need to see proper before and after pictures. If you don’t have before, and after pictures and ask your surgeon to forward the pictures they took.
There’s an almost universal correlation between people, seeking chin and neck liposuction and having a facial skeletal imbalance based on having a small mandible or a mandible lacking in projection, in comparison, with their maxilla.
Most people this treatment do not have an abnormal fat distribution. The problem is based on bone structure and bone structure is the fundamental correct treatment to address the problem. For this reason soft tissue solutions will give a partial improvement at best.
The most successful procedures aim at treating the underlying primary problem.
Having a small mandible leads to a premature double chin, lack of jawline definition a dental overbite occlusion and premature jowl formation.
When the mandible lacks sufficient forward projection the underlying platysma muscle drapes the neck in the more oblique fashion.
Chin augmentation will not advanced the body of the mandible, and does not reposition the platysma muscle.
Both patients and providers look for easier solutions, and therefore often select Liposuction as an appropriate compromise. Patients should recognize that the treatment lacks inherent justification because it doesn’t treat the underlying problem. That said well done Liposuction on patients who are exceptional candidates can lead to very high-quality outcomes. Delivering consistent quality Liposuction Resort is more difficult than most people realize. The number of plastic surgeons of truly mastered, Liposuction is in a small minority.
For what is seen as a relatively simplistic procedure Liposuction is in fact, a difficult skill to master to the point of having the ability of delivering predictable consistent outcomes.
To get a quality assessment requires better information. And a minimum we need to see proper before and after pictures or ideally schedule in person and second opinion consultations.
Finding a sufficiently talented and experienced surgeon may take some searching around. Just patient start the process by having multiple in person consultations. There’s no correct number of consultations needed to find the right provider or consultations. Patient scheduled before having surgery provider. Considering how diverse Liposuction skills are I recommend patient schedule at least five in person consultations before committing to permanent and or irreversible body contouring procedures.
To get an accurate assessment regarding facial, skeletal structure, suggest consulting with oral surgeons. Alternatively, you can consider plastic surgeons with craniofacial and Fellowship training.
Most plastic surgeons will be soft tissue oriented in regards to both assessment and treatment options. It’s important to recognize the inherent problem and this helps patients and providers realize that soft tissue solutions for treating facial skeletal problems going to lead to partial improvements.
Well, a neck lift still does not treat the primary problem. It is a more comprehensive procedure that addresses three tissue variables rather than just one. A neck lift will suspend the platysma muscle tighten the skin, and can reduce both subcutaneous and sub platysmal fat.
Both assessments and treatments of the lower one third of the face is complex and inherently difficult. It is not Unusual for patients to hear different opinions from different providers regarding treatment options and why procedures, lack delivering, consistent quality outcomes.
