Ive recently realy sudddenly developed jowls. I started using a drugstore firming cream that firms by "plumping" up the skin. I might just be crazy but while I feel like the creak works some when its on I feel like the jowls might becoming more pronounced when it wears off. Is it possible for these creams that plump your skin to actuallly stretch the skin out and possibly cause MORE sagging?

Hi Pumpkinbutts,

I don't know which brand you are using (obviously, I'm a Nuvosa user) but you might be the victim of optical illusion, instead of a faulty product.

You mentioned that whenever you stop using the cream, you start to notice your jowls again. Maybe you should take before and after photos, and then another batch of photos a couple of weeks later for proper comparison.

And maybe you can link us to the photos so we can make a better assessment.

Thanks and hope this helps.
