Am I old enough to safely get submental liposuction? (Photo)

November 19, 2021
Asked By:noellee in Avon Park, Florida

I turned 18 this September, however I have been looking at chin lipo for a few years now. Due to genetics, I have a lot of extra fat under the chin, so I have practically no jawline. I'm relatively skinny, so this isn't a matter of weight gain. As of now, I have a chin implant(gotten a few years ago) and have gotten cool sculpting(a few months ago), but it doesn't seem to be enough to fix the issue, although it has helped. Would there be any issues with getting chin lipo at my age?
