I have a slight double chin and went to a sergeon to enquire about liposuction of the chin and jowls to give myself a better profile and a strong jawline. He said that i would be better off with a liquid facelift to give my checks more definition and help any sagging in the jowls. But i have very chubby checks already? Would it make them worse? And would it help my double chin? I feel so confused and need a second opinion
Answer: Need to come in to consult For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan. It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: How you may benefit from facial liposuction Thank you for your question and photo. I agree that facial liposuction is likely your best option to reduce the double chin appearance you’re referring to. Double chins are generally caused by accumulated submental fat below the chin. Liposuction can sculpt this area by removing excess fat to reduce the double chin and provide a youthful contour along the jawline. I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon who can conduct a physical examination and suggest the best option for you.

Answer: Aesthetic Facial Balancing for a Liquid Facelift Hello, and thank you for your question! I believe that you would be a great candidate for a procedure that I call Aesthetic Facial Balancing. A large part of my practice is using this procedure. What this means is evaluating a patients face and bringing the features into harmony by making adjustments with either hyaluronic acid or fat. The most important component of a fillers treatment is the practitioner administering it. I take filler and balance all features in your face from top to bottom to make them work together to 'unlock' your beauty. This procedure is not just a filler intervention augmenting the cheeks and lips, but as in overall, non surgical way to shape the face in a different way to create natural appearing results that will last for years. I hope this helps! Wishing you beautiful results,Dr. Rian Maercks M.D.

Answer: Double Chin Hello,Thank you for your question. While fillers can help to lift the cheeks, which in turn will lift the jowels, you do have some other options. CoolSculpting is a great treatment for the chin area. This procedure will freeze your fat in that area, and it will be permanently reduced. Please visit a local physician in your area for an in person consultation. Good luck!

Answer: Liquid facelift? Since your chin is a priority, you should consider a treatment with Kybella. This is a non-surgical method of reducing that sub-mental fatty pocket. You can also enhance the cheeks and jaw line with several cc's of dermal fillers which will make you look younger, but also restore the natural facial volume that disappears with age. You should prepare yourself for the injections to reduce swelling and bruising and have a quicker recovery.Best wishes and good luck, Dr. ALDO :) Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Top 100 Doctor for Realself Realself Core Physician
