I had chin and neck lipo 11 days ago for my noticeable double chin and jowls I am worried because 11 days post op my left side looks wonderful with the double chin and jowls gone! But the right side looks exactly the same as before the procedure. I was told my chin and jowls will look the same after the procedure and it takes 3 months to notice a change so why is the left side of my face look good already? I am worried that my ps didn't take the fat out of the right side. Please let me know
