I had a lower facelift in August 2017, but at the time my surgeon didn't feel I needed a platysmaplasty. Upon review 6 months or so later he did do a 'tweak' (I can't remember what it was called exactly, but it took 30 minutes and left a small 1" scar under my chin). 7 years on and my turkey neck feels worse than ever. What might be the best remedy to improve it? I'm generally happy with everything else, but this I loathe with a passion. Thank you in advance.
