Saggy neck?

So having lost some weight, my skin under the neck is a bit saggy. I already have short neck, my side face makes it look more obvious.

Question is, will the skin snap back a little may be in months to a year?

How has your experience been, did you face skin snap back especially your neck area?

    things sort of shift around during year 2 or 3 and people do look better (as in not as "drawn"), but if there's a lot of sagging, you'll still probably have some. I had a neck lift last year and fina

You’ll find it will be similar to how the loose skin on the rest of your body responds. My neck looked pretty bad for a while. Lots of fine vertical lines running down from under my chin. They improved a lot over time - in my second year. My face looked drawn for a while too but it improved as well. You’ll notice once your weight stabilises, your body seems to resettles a bit which helps. I tried a few things like radio frequency sessions but don’t think they really did anything except I looked a bit fresher in the short term.

I have a short neck too but it looks longer now because I don’t have as much fat around my shoulders & neck. You’ll discover that too.

My Neck is awful now too and I noticed some marionet lines today too :(. I want a neck lift

I have a saggy neck too. Right under my chin, ugh. I had sculptra on my face and that helps a lot with the gaunt look after weight loss but not sure what to do with my neck yet. lol

How's the scar for neck lift?

I took some pictures and I think I see some difference with some face yoga or may be just little more weight loss. Sagging looks little better. So I suppose, I'll just to wait and watch how it looks towards the end of my weight loss and what procedures I may or may not need.

Am doing preliminary planning to get a neck lift or lower face lift to address, but im am historically prone to hypertrophic scarring so im a little hesitant.
