Will getting pregnant a year or two after a mini facelift ruin my results?

August 28, 2020
Asked By:Bamuir1987 in Grass Valley, CA

I am only 33 years old and I am having a significant loss of volume and severely sagging skin on my face. It’s so bad that I don’t go anywhere or let anyone see me unless I use facelift tape to pull back my skin. I am so embarrassed and I just feel awful. I’ve seriously been considering a mini facelift and I’m ready to do it but I’m planning on getting pregnant in the next year or two. I know it’s better to wait until post pregnancy but I can’t deal with this for 2-3 more years.
