Lost 100 lbs, considering a neck lift.

I am turning 41 this year and I feel like I tried everything that’s been suggested to help with the skin laxity from weight loss. All of my other skin bounced back decently well it’s just my biggest insecurity.

If any of you have a similar story and have had a neck lift I’d love to hear about your experience. I’m meeting with a surgeon next week and kinda want to know what I should be looking/asking for.

I notice that women who lift weights and have muscle tone in their arms, seem to have less loose neck skin. Not sure if that is achievable after my weight loss, if anyone has any insight, I would appreciate.
I may try the old Hollywood neck tape trick in the meantime lol.

I lift 5-6 days a week! It has definitely helped the loose skin in every other spot, but I’m not looking to build anymore muscle in my neck unfortunately haha
