I recently had a combination jowl lift and blepharoplasty (upper lids) surgery. Because I had 3 weeks off from work, I stopped exercising and started eating everything under the sun. Well, in the course of 3 weeks, I gained 7 pounds. Sounds like a silly question, but could gaining 7 pounds in 3 weeks, stretch the skin in the face and affect the lift?
