I Hate my Neck

It is possible that you may be a candidate for what is termed, "The Laser Assisted Weekend Necklift:" It is a minimally invasive procedure. Cervicofacial Liposculpture is first employed to contour the unfavorable fatty changes seen in the face and neck as time passes by, such as the ‘Turkey neck’ and ‘double chin’.Careful attention is then turned to tightening the neck muscles and eliminating neck bands. Finally, I employ laser technology to ‘resurface’ the underside of the neck skin, thereby ‘shrinkwrapping’ the skin of the neck restoring a youthful contour.A consultation with a board certified facial plastic surgeon or board certified plastic surgeon will help determine which procedures will provide the best results for you.

I encourage women to undergo an Ultherapy UltraLift for the neck in order to tighten the muscles of the neck without surgery. Raffy Karamanoukian MD FACSLos Angeles Plastic Surgeon

From the picture you have shown, it appears that a straightforward neck lift concentrating on bringing your neck muscles back together can achieve the appearance you desire. This can be done under local anesthesia and you would eliminate the risks of undergoing general anesthesia. A midline plastysmaplasty or re-approximation of the neck muscles is performed with a small incision under the skin.
