It's been awhile - thought I'd share a 7 month progress update. I don't think it is going to get better than this, but still such an improvement.

Looks great! I am on month four and I still notice it slowly tightening/ and or being numb in some areas. Thanks for the share!
Did you wear a compression garment?
Sure did!
What kind and did you buy it or did the Dr give you one? I have to buy my own for my upcoming procedure?
You should not be required to purchase your own. That's just poor on your doctor's behalf. The band my doctor's office provided for me was an elastic band similar to a thick ace bandage, with velcro to secure it. When it got loose they provided me a new one.

There are several different kinds that doctor's provide depending on angles/preference/ other procedures done. I suggest being very detailed and open with your doctor about what band is best. They're there to help you and make you comfortable!
thank you!
Your chin looks Great! Getting mine done soon. How long did you wear the compression garment and how did you sleep? Also, what type of garment did you wear?
Hi! Thanks so much!! I think i wore mine for almost two weeks. Dr recommended i think 3 - 5 days, but i was actually more comfortable with it on for a little bit. I slept just propped up for the first few days.
When did you stop seeing improvement? I still have no defintion in my chin from side it's been 6 months!
Hi there - yes my doctor gave me one too. I agree, they should provide! Thanks for the compliments!!
Yes, definitely! Just be very clear and ask as many questions as you can!

Did he make 3 puncture sites?
I think only two..
Beautiful results! Thanks so much for sharing! This gives me confidence for my upcoming neck lipo.
I think it looks great. I'm having the same procedure done next week. Since I will already be under I'm having a few other things done. I will be less than 2 months out from a vacation. Were you given any restrictions about staying out of the sun? The exact terms used is submental liposuction and thermi tight to neck , 1 syringe of voluma and juvederm to chin. My chins (turkey gaggle) is completely hereditary. I actually went in thinking I needed a lower face lift. I was told by 2 different PS's that I was not a candidate for a facelift because my 'genes' are the problem. By the way, I can see the difference and now I'm excited.
Hi there! I can only speak to the liposuction, and the answer is no - no restrictions other no exercise for the first week. MY PS basically told me to take it easy, relax etc. I would think in two months time you will be fine on your vacation, and will probably look better in pictures :) my best advice is to be patient, it's true what others say, it gets worse before it gets better. Good luck and feel free to ask me anything!
Wow! Amazing difference.

Almost 3 month anniversary.

Wow. I can't believe the difference!! I remember having hesitation before the procedure thinking that I was focusing too much on my imperfection, thinking do I really need some plastic surgery? Looking at the reviews on here I thought, whatever I do I'm sure I'll look better... when my dr told me I needed a neck lift I never thought the lipo alone would deliver these results. Of course now I think, I wish he sucked more out! And where else can I afford to have fat sucked out?! Just kidding. Sort of.

Wow, that really is a huge difference! Congratulations. :) For how long do you expect to keep seeing improvements?

I"m not sure. Dr said give it three months but as you may know with these surgeries final result can take up to a year. I still have some small bumps, soreness and numbness, so I know i am still healing.

Makes sense. It's exciting that it'll keep getting better and better.

You look great! I wish I had this done at 20, 30, 40... Well, I guess at 48 its time to get it done! Thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks! My only regret is that I didn't do it sooner!
Oh my gosh! You look absolutely amazing! Thank you for posting your progress and pics. I was considering neck lipo as well and now, no doubt I'll go thru with. I'm 41, similar neck/under chin area as your before pics. Can't wait to have it done!
Thank you so much!! You should do it!! Let me know if you have questions!
You look amazing
