i’m worried about going for a full surgery with anesthesia and wondering if it can be a more simple procedure?
Answer: Chin Lipo and Anesthesia No way. That is the great thing about this procedure. Tumescent anesthesia which is some lidocaine mixed with saline is enough to completely numb the area. I do offer most patients a chill pill which includes a medication to calm you and to help with the injection pain. It is much safer to do this procedure awake and most surgeon are able to offer the patient that option if they are interested. I do most of my procedures awake and we have developed a nice protocol to make it enjoyable for the patients. Hope this helps.Best of luck,DrC

Answer: Can Chin Lipo Need To Be Done Under Anesthesia Liposuction is an outpatient procedure which is commonly performed in either a doctor's office or hospital. It is be performed under local #anesthesia or a "conscious" sedation intravenously. The location and type of anesthesia for your procedure will be determined by your doctor. For smaller areas of the body, such as the #chin, the use of local anesthesia is common. Consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in #face, #neck and #chin procedures is important to ensure you are receiving the best advice, care, and surgical experience possible.

Answer: Chin Liposuction and Anesthesia Neck/Chin/Jowl Liposuction can easily be done in the office under local anesthesia. I have performed neck liposuction using local tumescent anesthesia for many years. Patients are back to work and exercising the next day. I would suggest finding a Dermatologic Surgeon that performs tumescent liposuction. Good luck.
