a little chin lipo

Do you have to wear a chin strap after minor chin lipo. If you have the lipo done the same time as full face fat transfer then will the strap interfere with the healing process of the rest of the face?

a chin strap for a few days is a good idea. it will not interfere with fat transfer. i think you know (maybe not) based on my previous posts that lipo of the neck after 40 is risky in showing up neck bands. i assume you are under 40?
best,
