What potential complications or risks are there or even success stories from people who've had a SG and are approaching their 40s, 50s, 60s or 70s? Is the healing process completely stable?

Chin ptosis (witch's chin) is very uncommon whereby the chin droops below the horizontal line and becomes worse while smiling. It can be corrected through an incision under the chin under local or light general anesthesia as an outpatient procedure with minimal recovery.
Thank you for your query.I am sorry to hear you are still unhappy following your surgery. I would recommend you take this up with your surgeon. Your nose/upper lip/chin line shows an improvement.Kind regards.
To get an accurate assessment of your face you need to submit non-smiling pictures as well as show pictures of your bite. The question is whether you chin/jaw asymmetry needs to be improved by improving your bite relationship or whether it can be addressed by just chin and jawline surgery.
