4 Years Later, Still Happy!

My whole life, I had this pocket of fat under my chin - did not look great as I got older so I decided to do something about it. My goal was to make the neck/chin/lower face area look better. I did not want anything on the upper part of my face as I am totally cool with aging and was looking for subtle. Dr. Mahabir was amazing from start to finish, the experience was a journey as I had never had any sort of surgery in my life let alone one that was choosing. The surgery itself was fine, and recovery physically was a breeze. I read all my materials from cover to cover, and likely over thought whether I was doing everything correctly. There was a period (on and off) the few months post surgery where I felt down, like 'why did I do this to myself?'. Who knows what that was, but I will say without hesitation I am happy I did it. Swelling was completely gone a few weeks later (4 weeks or so), and the numbness/tingly sensation lasted well into the next year but is not bothersome at all. I took my surgeon's advice and ensured I had a great skincare routine to preserve the 'investment' in my face - specifically I am religious about my neck cream. I ended up a year after the surgery changing my lifestyle in terms of exercise/diet and had a slow roll over 3 years of losing 50 lbs. Surprisingly, the lower face lift (and believe me, I had a fat face!) held up beautifully despite the significant weight loss. I do not regret this one bit, and highly recommend to anyone looking to change the look of their neck area and have an overall refreshed feeling.
