Hi Kathy, I use a Retinol product by Loreal which really helped the lines around my eyes, but the jowls are another story. I do have to say that after your weight stabilizes for a year or so, things do look better. You lose that "gaunt" look, but I'm still saggy!

I had a neck/lower face/mid face/lower eyelid lift/tummy tuck on April 12th. My face is still swollen and my eyes and ears still hurt a little. I was told it takes three months for swelling and six months for healing. My total was $18,000 and I was self pay. The face and eyes were around $12,000. I wasn't very wrinkled, but I did have the jowls. I am very happy with the results.

The only plastics I had was on my face. I had the turkey triple chin and really bad sagging. The surgeon took off 6 inches of skin on my face. I am disappointed as it has almost been a year and the skin is sagging again but no where near as bad. Good news is I can get a revision for free. My lift cost $5000. I am 54yo combined with the stretched skin I think that is why I need a revision.

No Plastics here and I know this sounds funny but it is helping. You know the funny faces that men make wahile shaving? If you do that 3 times a day it helps tone and lift. That is why most men do not have saggy chins and necks. Just my 2 cents
