A member asked:
Ive been on methylprednisolone since 2010 i.have a moonface and a double chin, if i lose weight will my double chin turn into sagging skin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: The steroids can contribute to moon face and double chin. As you lose weight it is possible your face will change, however, at such a young age this will not likely be a flaw in your looks. Stay with your doctors recommendations. Be well.
