If I have to do lipo on 1 jowl that remains after surgery what's the usual recovery time?

March 10, 2023
Asked By:Cece1984a in Wheaton, Illinois

I had mini facelift in 2018 and I still have one jowl remaining. I got answers to my question previously that I could potentially do lipo on one side but since I am older the skin will be loose and I. So not want to do any fillers. If I have to do revision on one side with the lipo, what is the usual cost and recovery time?
