Provided by YP.comAbout 3 and a half years ago Dr. Russo performed liposuction under my chin and neck which he assured me would pull up the sagging skin on my neck. What I was left with were deep vertical pleats under my chin and down the length of my throat. I looked a good 10 years older than I did before the procedure. Also I suffered from pain under my chin that never went away.
When I went to my last post-op visit, I told Dr. Russo that I was very unhappy with the result. He seemed shocked. He seemed genuinely perplexed and told me that he thought my skin would 'snap back'. Then he examined me and said, 'It's just a little skin' and that the only way to correct it would be with a neck lift. Then he said 'You're done' and walked out. I was dumbfounded by his response.
To make a long story short, I recently had a neck lift with which I am very happy. The doctor told me that the person who performed my liposuction 'took out too much fat' ... 'really tore up my platysma'...'did a very rough lipo'... It took her 3.5 hours to do the muscle repair.
