I had liposuction to get rid of my double chin 10 weeks ago and I'm not happy with the results as double chin remains. What happens if I'm not happy with the outcome of my surgery? I see my consultant next month but feel like he may fob me off again as I'd originally asked for a lower face lift for my saggy jaw but was told I am a bit young. Now he is telling me he had to leave some fat in so I didn't get loose skin. - is ultherapy an option? All I'd like is a streamlined jaw, no double chin!
