How to Decide: Chin Lipo or Jaw Fillers for Double Chin? (Photo)

Question

I have a slim physique but have noticed what looks like excess fat under my chin. I’m considering getting chin liposuction to address this, and then proceeding with chin/jaw fillers for improving my jawline and addressing jowls. I’ve seen before and after photos from online research, particularly for chin/jaw fillers. However, I’m uncertain if just fillers would be sufficient to fix the double chin, or if I should go ahead with chin lipo before the fillers. Advice would be greatly appreciated!

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

After reviewing your posted series of chin photos I recommend long lasting fillers (Vollux or Radeisee - 2 syringes), sub mental and neck lipo. That fee $4,500. I might also add mini neck lift with SMAS plication thus increases fee to $8,500. Best to virtual consult with.....
