So you got jawline, chin, and lower cheek fat removed - does that mean "jowls" or more like puffy cheeks?

I'm getting facial lipo so I'm a little worried by your post haha. But there are a lot of B&A's of facial lipo that I feel make the person look better but not older... do you think you got too much fat removed?

I think it depends on the dr, some acculift can give really good result if it done on the right place. My dr insisted i do whole face which i regret... and lower part of my face looks fatter now than my mid face, if u know what i mean.

Which dr u going to for acculift?

Yes, I think it depends on which doctor. I got acculift and I am satisfied with the result. No sagging and my face got more elastic.

I'm not getting acculift, just facial lipo on the bottom of my face.

You say you got acculift on your whole face? Like your forehead 'fat' and the fat by cheekbones?

Yes fat is good for youthfulness. See the Olsen twins attached.
@sunnysnow losing fat will dramatically change one's face especially if you lose a tremendous amount of weight. You will lose all your prettiness and youthfulness. Ugh!
According to UVOM (see attached) they do facial lipo and put the facial fat back to where you need it. Sounds great as (a) it's not coming from another body part and (b) perhaps if it is fat from your face back into your face, it may survive a bit longer.

Here are some b&a of facial lipo and replacing the fat where it's needed on the face.

Definitely agree. They didn't care about me as a patient with my own goals and concerns and just pushed their sales tactics on me. I went with my mom, and honestly I wanted to wait a few days before making a decision, but my mom blindly believed them and paid for the surgery right away. I will PM you the clinic.

Can I also get the clinic's name because I'm also thinking about getting acculift.

Could you share the clinic with me as well please as I m looking to do acculift as well

 

[jljl2018]

Thank you for sharing your results, and do you mind pm me the name of the clinic? I heard people typically get chubbier after three months of the lipo surgery, so perhaps you can wait for it to recover? Sorry to see you have to go through this unpleasant experience.

Hey forumers, long time lurker here and first time posting after a disheartening experience with chin/jawline lipo and Acculift. I'm 22 and had this procedure done a couple of months ago, and I highly regret it I came into the consultation only wanting to get rid of my double chin, but the hospital insisted I had a lot of face fat and chubby cheeks and talked me into getting my jawline/lower cheek/chin area lipoed as well. I did have chubby cheeks but I didn't mind them at all, and people thought I was 16 all the time because of my baby face. After lipo, I look older and tired; my face looks more flat and dull, and loss of volume actually made my face look bigger... People tell me I look older (I know I shouldn't take those comments to heart but before this, all I got were compliments on how young and pretty I was). The surgery changed my entire face shape and I literally look like a different person and not an improved version. I guess I'm writing this because I want to warn you guys against taking fat away from your face. I guess sometimes we all get greedy and want that "flawless" look but honestly, do your research and know exactly what improvements you want, and don't let hospitals tell you you have more areas that need to be fixed if their aesthetics aren't in line with your own. Before the surgery, I took a look at the B/A pictures of this lipo procedure, and I can honestly say a lot of the after results looked so much worse and older than before. Yet I still went ahead with it because I trusted the results with be good. I asked the consultants whether lipo would make me look older, but they reassured me again and again that it wouldn't. The surgeon saw me for no more than 2 minutes through the whole thing (consultation, surgery, post-surgery). I have no one to blame but myself but being stupid and not insisting on exactly what I wanted, and for not listening to my gut feeling. I can't believe I took away my natural fat when people pay for fat grafting for the baby face effect I used to have. I don't know what to do now. I lost all my confidence. I look in the mirror and I don't see myself. I'll definitely have to get fat grafting done now Sigh... I know this entire thread probably sounds vain, but I'm sure some of you would understand, as we only have one face and we have to live with it. I'd be thankful for any help if anyone has had experience with fat grafting to the lower cheeks/buccal fat area. Thanks for reading!
