I am having the area below my chin and jawline liposuctioned. I am wondering how long will it be until I look pretty normal, and how long will it take until I see my full results? Thank you!
Answer: Look normal 3-4 weeks after Chin/Jaw line Liposuction, final results seen at 3-6 months
Usually bruising and swelling are reduced to a point where you look "fairly normal" by 2-3 weeks after Liposuction of the Chin , Neck and Jaw Line.
Healing beneath the skin continues for at least 6 weeks.
Long term healing including skin tightening and remodel ling of the tissue beneath the skin continues for many months. I tell my patients to expect final result at about 6 months

CONTACT NOW Answer: What to expect from your chin lipo recovery Thank you for your question. Many of my patients are pleasantly surprised by how quick and comfortable recovery from chin liposuction really is. You can expect to have some swelling and bruising in the area for 2-3 weeks, although the worst of it generally subsides within the first week after treatment. Because I use the tumescent technique and micro-cannulas, some of my patients have almost no bruising afterward. The area will be sore for a day or two, but patients usually manage the discomfort successfully with over-the-counter pain medications. My patients are typically back to their regular activities within about four days.

Answer: Healing after Chin Liposuction or Buccal Fat Removal Hi @Cupcake26 thanks for the question. Recovery after Chin Liposuction is fairly easy. You are certainly presentable by the third week although final swelling can last 6 weeks. There is a mild amount of swelling that peaks on the third day and is almost all gone by the second week. I suggest patient take Arnica and Bromelain 2 weeks before and after surgery to reduce bruising and swelling. Other things that help are: sleeping with 2 pillows to elevate your head, avoiding salty foods, and drinking plenty of water for the 2 weeks after surgery. Most importantly, make sure you’re seeing an expert who will use proper technique that minimized tissue trauma which can worsen swelling after surgery.

Answer: How Long Will It Take to Heal from Chin/jawline Liposuction Though recovery from a surgical #necklift varies from person to person, patients are generally presentable within three weeks from surgery. Generally, it will take approximately 7-10 days for the early healing in which many patients feel comfortable being in public at this stage. Most #bruising is low on the neck and may easily be covered by clothing. Also, wearing a #compression garment may be suggested the first week and then nightly for up to six weeks. The #incision scars from a necklift can typically be hidden well and are not located within eye level to be immediately noticed. These #scars “mature” within six to twelve months from the surgery date. The term mature implies they will soften and fade away. During this time, the rejuvenating effects of the necklift will become most obvious and the neck feels the most normal (ex. little discomfort, soft, normal sensation, no more post-op firmness). Following this stage, the true restorative effects of your necklift result will be apparent. If during your healing, you have any concerns, it is suggested to call your board-certified surgeon or their medical staff and discuss those #concerns.

Answer: Normal social activities may be resumed around one week following neck liposuction. We recommend wearing a compression neck garment for one week, and then 1-3 small stitches are removed, and most patients look presentable. Minor neck bruising may be concealed. Many see improvement by one week postoperative, but the entire healing process may take 6-12 months. Hope this helps! Dr Joseph
