Hey everyone! I'm very excited but also nervous for my appointment on July 18. I'd love to connect with one else who's had all three of these procedures done together. I've had a heavy neck and double chin my entire life, like mot people who write reviews on this procedure. Can't wait to see a new me

Thank you! It's a process, but for me it's been worth it. As far as the pain, everyone is different but it wasn't too bad for me at all. During the procedure, there was no pain other than the IV going into my hand. The recovery pain was minimal. My doc gave me Tylenol with Codeine and I didn't even need to take all of it. And I am NOT a person who is known for having a high pain tolerance! There was definitely discomfort, but totally manageable .

I had chin lipo, which is technically called submental lipo. He also did lipo to the jowls (cheek/jawline area), and hen the buccal fat pad removal as well. My doctor considered it to be three separate procedures but done all at once.

Alright, typos kill me. I seriously cannot stand leaving a typo uncorrected, and apparently all I do is make typos when typing on my iPad. This is not cool y'all. Not cool.

Hey everyone--tomorrow is the big day. Neck/chin lipo as well as jowls AND buccal fat pad removal.
I have some nerves, some excitement, but nothing too bad. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get some sleep tonight. I can't believe that tomorrow I'm getting this disgusting fat off my face and neck after carrying it with me for so long. It has affected the way I've felt about myself for decades. I also think that it's suddenly getting worse--maybe gravity is kicking in now or something...

Anyway, I haven't talked much with anyone IRL about this, just two friends, so it feels good to vent to the Real Self community. Wish me luck!
