I know someone that has it done on her face (under the chin - in the neck area). She did wear this cloth facial "mask" thing for about a 3 days day, but that was it.
I had a co-worker that had the gastric bypass surgery who later went in to have skin removed and liposuction done in the waist/hip area. oh gross!

She had to wear that harness/shaper thing for about 8 weeks, in addition to dealing with tubes for drainage. From what she described, I was extremely painful...and gross.
I don't know if I could go through that. I would just have to buy a girdle and call it a day.
