Should I Lose Weight Before a Facelift?

June 27, 2010
Asked By:Dilee

I have lost 40 pounds and have 20 more to go (55 yo female). When I first lost 20 pounds everyone kept telling me how young I looked. I would get looks. Then I lost 40 pds and no one even looks at me. I am afraid to lose the last 20. I had a round face with chubby cheeks and still have a round face. But some of the volume is gone it is making me look older. Will a facelift give me a youthful look again? Should I lose 20 more pds? I feel like gaining 20 pds to look younger. Ha!
