Male, 45, is bichectomy okay for me for a better appearance? Facelift? (Photo)

Resourceful493650Sep 3, 2023
Hello, 45y/o male. I am on TRT since a few years for medical reasons. TRT made my face wider. I want to get my former slimmer appearance back. Does bichectomy will do the job for me?

I have to add that I am pre-diabetic and have poor wound healing. Can I cover it up without noticing?
