Is it true that we age or look older after WLS?

I'm embarrassed to ask this question, it seems kind of stupid to worry about! However, I'm a 41 year old woman, BMI 56. I've been overweight all my life. With a face that always has looked far younger than I am. I'm aware that I have alot of fat filling in those wrinkles....is this a given with WLS? Do we have to "look older"? I'm pursuing WLS for health reasons, and quality of life...but....I'm a little nervous about this part! Perhaps I'm shallow...but is increased aging or looking older just a part of WLS? Please tell me I'm not the only one that has worried about this!
