Best Non Surgical Way to Get Rid of Double Chin?

Hi everyone! Thanks for reading. There are so many new procedures to get rid of excess fat under the chin I really do not know what is best. I'm 27 and at a healthy weight. I would like the results to be permanent and I definitely do not want to have surgery. Also, if you could recommend some doctors in nj it would be much appreciated. Thanks again!

A: Ulthera Tightens the Neck In the appropriate candidate we have seen wonderful results with Ulthera. It is a one time only treatment that uses highly focused ultrasound to cause a permanent change in the tissues treated. Although the results are non-surgical, Ulthera tightens the neck and jowls effectively. Best wishes on achieving your goals.

Doctor Recommendation for Jawline Reduction Surgery in New York City

I am planning on getting a Mandibular Reduction/Jawline Contouring/V line osteotomy/Jawline Reduction.

I am not sure what the procedure is specifically addressed as but it is a procedure done to shave down your jawline to give it a more narrow, slim appearance.

I live in New York City and I having a hard time finding a surgeon who is experienced in this type of surgery since I also want to have rhinoplasty done with the same surgeon as well. Is there anyone who is capable of doing this surgery?

A: NYC Area Surgeon for Rhinoplasty and Chin Reduction

The NY metro area has a multitude of well qualified plastic surgeons for rhinoplasty and a chin reductions--as these procedures are within the scope of the field.  A good starting point is to find plastic surgeons that are certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgeons and then you can find surgeons that are members of the American Society of Maxillofacial Surgeons if you truly require more involved jaw surgery (orthognathic surgery).  Best wishes with your endeavor.

Chin Reduction Surgery - Is it Necessary?

Hi! I went to my orthodontist to see if I had a misaligned bite, but he said my jaw was perfectly aligned, so that rules out jaw surgery! My chin does not stick out at all when I'm not smiling, but when I smile it looks like it has extra flesh and bumps on it that makes it look longer and "witchy". I hate it! What kind of surgery would fix this? Buccal Fat Pad Removal? Chin reduction of fat tissue? I don't know! And an approximate cost? (From Long Island) Thanks!

A: Chin Reduction Surgery for Dimpled Chin

Dear Coleenb,

It is difficult to determine what the underlying problem is given the pictures that you submitted.  In an examination, critical determinations are made from lateral views and as well from frontal views when your lips are in repose (not smiling).  The first assessment is to determine the symmetry and proportionality of your facial anatomy; which means, is your jaw and chin in the proper proportion relative to your cheekbones/cheeks.  Once these assessments are made, then we can determine the proper procedure, which may range from chin surgery (genioplasty) to Botox.  Buccal fat pad excision would not improve any dimpling or straining seen in your chin upon smiling.  As with any procedure, a board certified physician with experience in treating your issue is of primary consideration.  Best wishes with your endeavor.
