Answer: Neck muscle banding best treated with office surgical necklift A formal in-office evaluation and consultation are necessary to provide medical advice, but based on your photos alone, it appears that you have neck platysmal banding, which is best treated with a neckllift corset procedure, typically performed under local anesthesia in office in my practice. We typically see that radiofrequency tightening or microneedling cannot tighten the muscle bands and can actually cause fibrosis under the skin that can make a necklift surgery more difficult in the future.

Answer: Mini Facelift & Mini neck lift -- FaceTite RF for internal skin tightening + Neck Liposuction for definition/contouring FaceTite can internally tighten the skin in the lower face and neck. After all the skin has been heated and contracted, we shape the neck with liposuction to give definition and remove stubborn pockets of fat. In one quick treatment, we can tighten skin, remove fat, and contour the lower face, jawline, and jowls with only a weekend of downtime. Keep in mind that combination approaches will give you a more significant improvement as opposed to a single procedure. I recommend getting a consultation with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer
