I, admittedly, (more like, shamelessly) have an obsession with my neck. Always have. My gene pool suggests that my anatomically horrific chin to neck affliction (a.k.a. Beaker from the Muppets Syndrome) runs way, way back in our family. This holds true for all of our big noses, almond shaped eyes and our wacky sense of humor. I can live with the huge schnoz, the almond eyes and even the propensity to cackle uncontrollably upon seeing someone concuss their head into a low hanging light when others would instinctively rush to the person in need of head stitching. All true. But I've always, always, always, always hated my chin-neck deal. Hated - capital "H". Oh, and I can live with the small mammories too (but that is my own recessive gene gig as my sister never had this issue so we can't blame this on an evenly distributed cosmetic hangup.)
But this Beaker Syndrome that our ancestral make-up has passed down to all of us has driven me to the point lately where I believe my mid-life crisis will result in my having this corrected. I kid you not.
This pigeon hole fascination with necks and lifts borders on insanity. I'll often scour the web looking at "before and after" shots of neck lift patients; I'll vaporize pictures of me which show me Beakering-out; and even avoid having my picture taken at all just to avoid seeing my side profile memorialized for all of perpetuity. Is this a trivial thing to worry about? You bet. Do I treat it as such? Not on your life. This obsession has never left me - it just keeps getting bigger and bigger in my head the older I get. Thank God I'm not into hoarding, right?

This 50 year old Caucasian Facial Cosmetic Plastic Surgery patient from Anza, California who was unhappy with her aging face with loose skin, jowls and wrinkles and was interested in facial rejuvenation. She searched for a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, and a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and found Stuart Kincaid M.D to be the best cosmetic plastic surgeon for her. She expressed that she wanted someone that would provide natural results and a safe environment.
Love this shit. Honestly. It quiets the noise in my head just a little about my whole obsessiveness for a normal profile - the quest for the proverbial Holy Grail of Necks and Chins.
If I hit the lottery my friends, you bet your liposuctioned arse that I'm getting this done the next morning. Magical thinking, but every little bit helps, baby.
