Sagging face questions

Hello, one of my biggest concerns after surgery is loose skin on my face. I carry alot of my weight in my face so I know I will have sagging. However, I am 24 and skin bounces back easier. I am still concerned. Any tips for to prevent this???

    I am over twice your age, lost 150# and I don't have too much of a problem with this. Be optimistic, and I can assure you I look better with one, not 3 chins.

Minimizing sagging skin on the face is the same as loose skin everywhere else. A lot depends on genetics, age, and other things outside of your control. The steps you can take are to stay well hydrated, moisturize daily, and take your vitamins (possibly some extra vitamin C and beef gelatin).

I find if I smile a lot, the saggy skin is gone. So I suppose I look annoyingly happy all the time now? ????

I've lost 140 pounds too! I think my face looks great except for some extra wrinkles on my neck and when I add lots of lotion it seems to be better. So my recommendation moisturizer or lotion every day maybe even twice a day.
