Chin Liposuction

By looking at your pictures I am not able to give you an opinion. The correct procedure can be determined only after a physical examination. If the fullness under your chin is pure fate, liposuction should give you a good result. However, if it is just loose skin, liposuction is not the right procedure for you. If it bot fat and loose skin, a vary conservative liposuction may be helpful. Below are several of my patients who have had Chin Liposuction: more

Good candidate for chin/neck liposuction

Based on your photo, you do appear to be a good candidate for liposuction of the chin/neck. Young patients (under 40) do very well as long as they have good skin tone (elasiticity). It will take a few months for the skin to shrink and contract; the surgical garment will help with this during the first few weeks post-surgery. Best wishes, Dr.Bruno

Some may offer a chin implant.

I think you might do very well with just neck liposuction. I would recommend getting several opinions. Keep in mind that cosmetic dermatologist also offer this service and tend to perform neck liposuction with much fewer drugs which can be a great choice for many. There is no evidence that a particular device is better for liposuction that a properly done microcanula liposuction.
