Hi I am currently 22 and have an appointment for chin lipo and buccal fat removal coming up. I am 5'10 and about 200pds. I've lost 30 pounds but would still like to lose about 30 to 40 pounds. I know I should hold off til after losing the weight to get lipo but I'll be out of the country for awhile for school. My question is if I lose weight will my face become hallow or start to sag.
