IDK, but if you find something, let me know. I am shocked at mine. It looks like a sharpei! It's actually the worst droop I have so far....and the wrinkles run from my chin to my neck! I've been using lots of firming creams, but they don't work. And, it's too soon for plastic surgery, so that's out. I still think it's better than fat-filled, but I wonder how much worse it will get. I have a lot of weight to lose.

Wonder if there is an exercise we can do?

I'm not sure, and I do hope it gets a little better with time. I'm afraid to see what else is going to droop, lol!

It might be worth doing some research on facial exercises designed to reduce double chins. Can't hurt, and might help start tightening things up. Good luck!

Moisturise and keep hydrated. I have a bit of that too. But I guess it will be what it will be. I figure at least now I have a neck and not just more chins!!!

The main one I noticed on You tube is to look up and kiss the ceiling. I tried it and can feel the stretch.

I too hate my face. Hollow, dropping cheeks and a sway neck. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr.. It does seem to have gotten better over the last three months, but am I just getting used to it? I suspect a neck lift is the only thing going to fix it. I'm came in here today to read about Mexican plastics.

I certainly prefer my current Ronald Reagan turkey neck to the double chin I used to have!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
