5 Ways to Combat the Dreaded Double Chin

May 18, 2024

The fourth option is called the “Platysma Exercise.” Begin as you did in the first three exercises with an erect spine. Now open your mouth while keeping your lips pressed against your teeth. In addition, making a frowning face so that your neck muscles activate. Move your jaw up and down. Repeat between five and 10 times.

5.    Neck Lift

It’s no secret that our skin begins to sag with age. As a result, the neck can develop a turkey-like appearance. While a neck lift to combat this effect is extreme, it’s still an option. This is why we’re including it.

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, a neck lift is called a lower rhytidectomy. This is meant to combat the visible signs of aging, like jowls and excess fatty deposits that occur under the skin. It also tightens loose skin in the neck area.  

The ASPS says that this procedure is an option for those who are unsatisfied with the appearance of the lower portion of the face. Consequently, these people may not seek a full facelift. 

Obviously a neck lift is not an inexpensive choice. The ASPS says that the average price of this procedure is about $4,389. That said, this is just an average. The cost varies depending on where you live, which doctor you choose, and exactly what you have done.

In addition, there are circumstances that can make you a better candidate for a neck lift than others. The ideal candidate will be a healthy non-smoker with no medical conditions that would complicate the healing process. In addition, this person would have a realistic view of the outcome of surgery in general.    

While there are options available, most people will likely opt to just live with it. As for some unsolicited beauty advice, we say “keep your chin up!” It could make all the difference in the world.
