I am 39 years old, generally slim and youthful in appearance. I am 5'5 and 124 pounds, and have two children. I gained and lost about 50 pounds in each pregnancy. My neck skin is extremely wrinkly, crepey, and saggy. My face and body look 35, but my neck looks like it belongs to a 55-year old. I KNOW I have some sun damage there from some severe burns I got in my teens. I am also wondering if the weight gains and losses of pregnancy contributed to the sagging. What can I do?

Answer: Surgery vs. non-surgical options Unfortunately, neck lifts are tricky and there are not a lot of great nonsurgical options. Microneedling can be done but this has only a very mild effect, and probably not enough to make you happy. there are a couple of radiofrequency options available, but none have been found to have a drastic result. I agree that given your age, a mini neck lift with a submental incision only and tightening of the muscles and redraping of the skin may have a reasonable improvement, but you would probably be best served by a neck lift with incisions around the ears. This would give you the best result possible.

Answer: Neck Rejuvenation Options Based on your photograph, a formal consultation with a plastic surgeon would be important to give you any clear direction. Based on what you are describing along with the pic, I think a short scar neck lift (scar only under chin) would be a reasonable option to consider. However such an approach needs to focus on the deep layer of the neck below the platysma muscle while preserving all the remaining fat on top of the platysma muscle below the skin. Removing any more of this fat layer will likely make the neck look worse. However, focusing on the deeper layer which consist of a deep fat pocket, large salivary glands, and bulky digastric muscles can make a significant improvement without any skin removal which is usually not necessary in the 30's.

Answer: Necklift or facelift The impact of pregnancy weight is significant for many women, and affects various parts of the face and body. The pattern of skin excess under the chin is usually treated better by a combination of facelift and necklift because the more vertical vector of the facelift controls the skin tightening in that area.You can evaluate which approach would have better impact for you by tensioning the skin either in front of the sideburns (facelift simulation) or earlobes ( necklift simulation). If you feel the improvement from a necklift simulation is adequate, it typically translates into a similar effect in surgery. It is important to do the simulation with mild tension. With high tension, which cannot be replicated by surgery, the vector no longer matters. If the necklift simulation appears short of expectations, a facelift and necklift are more likely to address your concerns.

Answer: Neck lift candidate Thank you for your question and photos. Based on your photos provided, you do have excess skin and this can be caused by weight gain/and or loss as well as genetics and sun damage. You are an ideal candidate for a neck lift. I would advise you to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon for a detailed examination to discuss all possible treatment options and what your expectations are.
