Facelift at 40

I am 40 and I know that sounds quite young to be getting a neck lift/lower face lift. I've never had a great jawline. But a few years ago I got liposuction under my chin. It really didn't do much. Then I lost 30lbs. My neck is just as bad or worse than before. I'll never know if the lipo made the skin sag or if it would have been just as bad with losing weight. Either way, here I am at 40 with this sagging neck and jowls.
Part of it is the fact that I have a very bad overbite. I know it doesn't see so bad from these side pics bc I have a "compensating chin". Think underdeveloped jaw with a long chin bone lol. Not having much jaw structure there makes thinks look more saggy, plus makes me have a very round face. I've considered orthognathic surgery or even a lengthening genioplasty, but I figured I would try this first. It actually seems to be the less invasive choice.

My surgery is now scheduled for sep 6, 2023. That’s about 6 weeks away! I will update my progress along the way. I will be traveling from out of state to get it done and leaving the day after or maybe 2 days after bc I have young children at home.
