I have been to two PS's and I got two different answers. One suggested minifacelift+lipo, the other only lipo for my jowls. I have used dermal fillers in my chin for a decade bcause Ive always wanted a slimmer/v shaped jaw/chin. But it dosent look good and I want a slimmer jaw whitout jowls with a PERMANENT solution and stop w fillers. One of the PS's said facelift would not work since im in my 30s and that I would look the same as before short time after lift, is that true?
