Many of our patients at Queen City Plastic Surgery would love to lift the neck and improve their profile. One’s profile might not look as defined as before or they might have a “double chin” look due to aging, weight fluctuation, sun damage or genetics. These factors result in folds around the neck, loosening of the skin, and excess fat. It is amazing what a little contour around the neck and redefining of the jaw line through a neck lift can do to make you look years younger! Men and women alike enjoy having stronger profile and more-defined jawline.

Why I was interested in getting CosmoPen
Written by Anita Strickland, Front Office Coordinator
I have been feeling a bit self-conscious about some acne scarring on the sides of my mouth and wasn’t sure how to fix the scars.
