Dear Jessicawhite109,

I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what is wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Thank you for your inquiry! Keep an open communication with your plastic surgeon regarding your concerns as there may be revisions that can be done. If you're unhappy with your results then we would be available to see you in person to evaluate and discuss your revision options. Schedule a consultation with a Board- Certified Plastic Surgeon to help you reach your goals!

From the submitted photos there is no obvious skin laxity to be addressed.  However I encourage you to share your concerns with your surgeon.  Other options such as Morpheus8 may help give you the results you are wanting without having a revision.  I've included a video I hope you find helpful.
