I have lost 80lbs in the last 2 years and still have lower face fullness I do not like. I have always had it in varying degrees since my early 20’s even when I was very thin (117-120lbs). I am turning 40 next year and am concerned about it turning jowly. I am not interested in being very thin any more to try and control the facial fullness as now I have issues with platysmal banding at my neck is I get below 138lbs. Am I am good candidate for this procedure?
