How to Get Rid of Neck Fat?

Kybella and Cool Sculpting are unpredictable and take multiple treatments. Liposuction will directly, accurately and permanently remove the fat without the risks associated with Kybella and Cool Sculpting. Unfortunately, there is no procedure that can correct a double chin the way that a properly performed necklift or neck liposuction can.

Kybella often leaves you with SIGNIFICANT swelling and the results are not predictable or guaranteed.

I prefer to offer the gold-standard options which are neck liposuction or a deep neck lift. Both of these are made via inconspicuous incisions under the chin and the results are immediate and permanent.

There are multiple options to improve submental or chin fat but the most tried and tested is submental liposuction, which works best in younger patients with excellent skin elasticity.
Chin liposuction is an excellent option for contouring the neck and submental skin and can be performed in selected patients in the office under local anesthesia with minimal downtime.  It seems like this may be an excellent option for you and be sure to discuss this in consultation with a specialist. Best of luck to you!hello

Great question. The answer to this question is individualized to your specific anatomy and desired results. Kybella works great to permanently dissolve submental fat. Patients typically need 3 treatments with Kybella that are spread 4-6 weeks apart. After the injections, the treated area can be swollen for 1-2 weeks. After the swelling goes down, the fat will start to dissolve, and the results will show.Chin liposuction is going to be better for someone who has a diffuse band of fat around the face. After the surgery patients must wear a face band to help hold the chin area tight. This band needs to be worn as much as possible for the first two weeks. Swelling after surgery can last for 6 weeks, but the results are going to be more dramatic. The surgery, unlike Kybella, is a one and done procedure. Go to a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who can help guide into the right direction. Best of luck!
