I love the way my face looks slimmer and jawline defined is rad, but the turkey gobbler under my chin is loose and not cool.

I hate my neck and disliked it before; so now I need neck surgery; I guess it was inevitable.

The fat kept it propped up, but now the skin is loose so plan on neck surgery later if the skin doesn't go back to being tight.

I thought I'd be okay with just the lipo of the neck but no. I need surgery or a plataplasmy to tighten up the skin that is loose under the chin. It made the turkey gobbler thing happen so it's definitely a next step to have some kind of surgery to get rid of the excess skin. It was inevitable with age and just genetics.

I definitely need some kind of mini-neck lift or hopefully minimally invasive surgery to get rid of the excess skin or tighten up under the chin.

I had a double chin since I was 12 no matter what I weighed (size 6 to size 14) so it's genetics and aging.

I think you look great, I just had chin Lipo a week ago. Same situation with genetics. I have my fathers neck. I am happy so far. I know a lower face lift would have made a huge difference but I did not want that. I only wanted my neck done. I hope it will do what I want. At my age my Dr did tell me it could go either way. Feels good and looks good right now. Hoping it continues. Thanks for sharing your story.

Perhaps Thermage will help. It's supposed to tighten non invasively.

Neck photos, June 2015. Surgery was Sept. 2014 so this is it; but there is still too much skin and sagging under my neck so definitely and going back to Dr. Gupta to see what options are and most likely need some kind of mini-lower lift or something. Will keep posting..

I guess i thought the neck lipo would do it, but I definitely need a neck lift now. The lipo was great and Dr. Gupta was wonderful, am going back to him to for consultation for neck lift and to see what more I can do to tighten my neckline and need the neck skin gone. More pics to come...

Dr. Gupta reimbursed me for the neck band thing I overall am happy with the lipo, but it's definitely not finished, my neck needs skin tightening or removal..

Thanks for posting, I have thinking about having smart lipo for my neck instead of the neck lift, but I think I should just save my money and save for the lift
