Chin or submental liposuction can be accomplished through a 3 mm incision that is made in the submental crease. This tiny incision heals to be a very inconspicuous scar. Commonly two additional incisions the same size are also made. These are place behind the ear lobes and are used to sculpt the neck and the lower face when indicated.
Thank you for your questions. I use the Tumescent liposuction method in our practice for neck liposuction. For this procedure, we use a microcannula to suction the fat, which leaves behind smaller incisions with minimal scarring. It is the safest method of liposuction with the shortest recovery period. Be sure to visit a board certified cosmetic / plastic surgeon for a consultation.
