Asked By:Momto05 in Louisville, TN

Hi, I am about to turn 46. I have an 8 month old ( yes, you read that right) I still have 25lbs. to lose. Should I lose the weight before I have a lower face and neck lift? Will liposuction of the neck and jawline be done with facelift and can that fat be used to fill out the cheek area? Thank you!
