I’m 49 and Skin is in good condition, so not ready for a facelift but I have lost that in my face causing skin to droop downwards. I am planning on getting fat grafting to the full face, but I’m wondering if that will raise or tighten the loose skin underneath my chin area or would that be a different procedure? My neck is fine it’s just a bit of loose skin under the chin and jaw. My neck is fine it’s just a bit of loose skin under the chin and jaw
Answer: Will fat grafting improve my neck skin at all? Fat grafting to the face is a great option for permanent and long lasting volume to restore deficits that occur with facial aging. However, you will not get any tightening to the mild skin laxity of your neck. Adjunctive procedures to improve this at the time of the fat grafting could be radiofrequency heating (ThermiTight) to the neck or ultrasound treatments like Ulthera. These would be other options to explore that could potentially be done at the same time as a fat grafting. Obviously, a neck lift will be the best overall result and the fat grafting could be at performed along with that for improved aesthetic results. Good luck.

Answer: Your anatomy and your goals While volumizing the face in the right areas can provide tightening effects on the face, the potential of this will need to be decided for each case individually. It is possible that the amount of excess, sagging skin on the face cannot be improved much by volumizing the face alone and a lifting procedure may be needed. It will be best to consult a board certified facial plastic surgeon in person and discuss your goals and options after a physical examination.

Answer: Neck or face/neck lift with fat grafting Based on presented photos, it seems that you are good candidate for neck lift and, possibly (unable to see your cheeks and area around eyes) fat grafting. Only on the basis of in person evaluation one could decide whether face/neck or just neck lift would be a better solution for you. Good luck.
