January 14, 2014
Asked By:rdinca

I have tried EVERY temporary procedure to correct what I want corrected which is an end to my squaring face! I have had no resolve. I want a permanent (long lasting) solution so I consulted 3 area docs and all 3 said not enough tissue to do smas lift. ??? I don't get it, I can pull two inches back like in above pic and get result I want in mirror. My face WAS heart shaped like models pic I attached. I want that result. Any ideas or help if very much appreciated. Im at my wits end here. ty.
