Liposuction for Double Chin Before Losing Weight?

Maharani
Hello, I am considering having liposuction of my double chin. I've lost some weight (20 lbs) and I still have a little loose skin/fat under my chin. I am 44 years of age with good skin elasticy and the chin area is not overly fat or jowly.I am considering having liposuction of my chin to get my jawline back. However, I am not sure if I should wait because I still need to lose another 10 pounds.Will it make a difference to do it now with a 10 pound difference?
