I have a small dat pad in the jowl area. I have already had 2 mini liposuction treatments in that area, which caused me a lot of scars (luckily I don't see them but I can deel them with my tongue in my mouth). I don't want to put my face through another lipo. My cosmetic doctor told me that a relative new injectable called 'Prostrolane Inner B' would help.
