Is resecting the submandibular glands appropriate for my face/neck lift? (photos)

September 25, 2014
Asked By:StillSouthern in Tucson, AZ

In addition to lots of defatting and tightening of my neck, the BCPS plans to remove or thin or something to these glands. This sounds pretty scary, and I was told there might be less saliva. So many questions. Attaching lots of pics, not sure if it's enough for an opinion, but I would appreciate whatever advice you have. Thank you so much for all of your help!
