I've read a lot about chin lipo on Real Self and am thankful for the feedback and information! Based on what I've learned, I'm still wondering whether it makes more sense to go with a plastic surgeon (board certified, of course) who performs a lot of lipo on all parts of the body or to use someone who specializes in faces and may do less lipo? It's important to know the anatomy of face and neck but for best results wouldn't I want someone who performs lipo more frequently? Thank you in advance!
