50 year old male. My “double chin or neck?” Is more noticeable now whenever I look down I’m physically active (can loose about 10 pounds) but otherwise overall healthy. What are your recommendations doctors? I don’t want a fake “LA type of look” and not I’m a profession that pays a lot. Thanks.
Answer: Options for a Double-Chin or Neck Which procedure is best for a patient will depend on that patient’s individual concerns. If they have a lot of excess fat under the chin but good skin quality, liposuction is probably all that’s needed to achieve a more sculpted neckline. If there is significant sagging of the skin and underlying SMAS layer, liposuction won’t help, but a neck or facelift would. If a patient has both sagging skin and excess fat, a face or neck lift plus liposuction can be performed for optimal results. This is why a consultation with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon is so important; the patient needs to be evaluated, their goals discussed, and a custom treatment plan decided upon. I hope this helps.

Answer: Double chin You have many treatment options for a double chin. Kybella injections, jaw liposuction, skin tightening with Facetite, Thermi, Ultherapy,and laser treatment. If you truly have excess skin, then an isolated neck lift can be done.

Answer: Double Chin Concerns. 50 year old Male Patient In my practice this would be treated with Precision Rx, a laser-assisted liposuction procedure that removes the fat and tightens the skin of the neck and the jowls if desired.Other modalities are available depending on provider's skills and preferences. These include Kybella, which is a non-surgical injection of a fat dissolving compound that gradually removes the fat.Sculpsure also now has a approval for removal of subcutaneous fat under the neck. Sculpsure is a non-invasive treatment that applies laser energy through the skin, targeting the underlying fat without harming the skin. The fat dies and is absorbed by the body over a 4-12 week period.

Answer: Best results for Neck contouring with High definition neck contouring with Jamesson light perception, Jay plasma, neck tight, Ul Hello and thank-you for sharing your question and photos. Correction of a double chin can be achieved either though a surgical or non-invasive approaches. Liposuction and Jplazty (cold plasma energy to tighten skin) or FaceTyte Radio frequency of the chin and neck produces consistently great results for appropriate candidates. Some patients may even benefit from a small chin implant. We are very excited with the development of several non-invasive techniques for correction of a double chin. Ultherapy of the lower face and submental neck can provide both skin tightening and fat reduction for more definition. We also offer the Cool mini as a non-surgical alternative to liposuction for the right candidate. Generally, two treatments are required separated by 4-6 weeks. We also offer Kybella which is another non-surgical alternative to liposuction. Generally 3-6 treatments are needed separated by 4-6 weeks. I would suggest an in person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon Well-versed in all aspects of facial rejuvenation in your area to learn about your options.. Good Luck!

Answer: Double chin Liposuction is needed to remove the excess fat. Once that is completed the issue of loose skin remains. You have some options at that point: 1) allow the skin to contract (shrink) on its own with some compression, or2) enhance that skin contraction by using minimally invasive laser energy (Precision TX) or plasma energy (J-Plasma Subdermal), with tiny incisions, or3) performing a formal neck lift which involves incisions around the ears. All these are viable options to restoring a more youthful neck. Of course, consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon is always the first step. I wish you all the best!
