Hi, I had liposuction on my lower face and under a portion of my chin back in 2016 and it has caused me to have saggy skin. Unsure if there is a combo of fat and excess skin under my chin, or just excess skin. I don’t think he did full lipo on the chin but don’t recall. I feel like I need a mini or even a full facelift and a chin implant, I also have notches in the jowl area. Someone told me I have a weak chin, so maybe the chin implant is a definite must. What are your thoughts? Thanks!

Answer: What do I need to improve the saggy skin under my chin?
Your surgeon knows what was exactly done so it is best to discuss all issues with your surgeon. It will be hard without examining your eyelid movements and no pictures to give you a valuable answer.
You are an absolute candidate for open neck deep plane lift, with the purpose to treat the underplatysma bulging: trimming only the bulging part of the gland, it is never a total removal, removing a portion of the digastric muscle, trimming the subplatysma fat which obviously can not be reached...
I generally prefer to conduct a physical examination first, but from what I can gather from your photos, you seem to be a suitable candidate for a lower facelift or mini facelift surgery. Correcting the area known as jowls in the lower part of your face with a facelift will make you look younger...
