About the procedure
Liposuction can reduce localised fat beneath the chin and in the neck. The contour also depends on skin elasticity, muscles and the underlying jaw anatomy.
Your consultation
The doctor examines fat distribution and skin quality. The discussion establishes whether liposuction can address your concern or whether excess skin calls for another approach.
What to expect
- Medical assessment, discussion of options and agreement on a plan.
- Removal of localised fat with a cannula through small incisions.
- Aftercare and follow-up adapted to the healing process.
Recovery and follow-up
Swelling can temporarily change the jawline. Advice on supporting the area, local care and returning to activities is adapted to the surgical plan.
What to consider
Liposuction does not remove excess skin. Contour irregularities, asymmetry and changes in sensation are considerations to discuss before surgery.
Common questions
Is a double chin always caused by excess fat?
No. Skin, muscles and bone structure can contribute to the appearance. Examination helps distinguish these components.
Can it be combined with a lift?
Sometimes, when skin laxity is also present. Combining procedures is considered after discussing benefits, limitations and the recovery involved.
Discuss the cost before treatment.
Ask for an estimate for your case and clarify what is included: consultations, the procedure, investigations and follow-up visits. The plan and final cost are agreed after assessment.
