Whenever I look down, the fat on my neck/chin is very noticeable. What are my options? (Photos)

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.

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. 

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. 

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!

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!

It's best to begin by consulting with a surgeon in-person to discuss your options. Depending on the level of laxity, the effects of a neck lift will certainly outlast the effects of non-surgical treatments. Non-surgical procedures can only temporary resolve the issue and require few to several attempts or treatment appointments. The presence of banding down the front of the #neck, and, amount of excess skin and condition of your skin are among some factors which determine if you are a #candidate for #rejuvenating the neck.
During your initial examination, your chin will be evaluated along with the neck and jawline. A weak #chin implies a lack of chin support for the skin along the neck line. In younger individuals a chin implant alone is usually all that is needed to improve the appearance of the neck. Subsequently, it will also improve the overall #balance of the face and can create the illusion of a smaller nose. As a stand-alone procedure, chin augmentation can be performed in the office under local #anesthesia. For individuals with signs of #aging in the neck, a chin implant added to one of the recommended procedures above, will provide optimal results. Liposuction under the chin is also another option your doctor can discuss.However, there may be additional options to improve the appearance of your concern to improve the overall balance of your face. Such can be best evaluated in-person. Consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon who specializes in #face, #neck and #chin procedures is important to ensure you are receiving the best advice, care, and surgical experience possible.

I would say the best treatment option to reduce the fat under your chin would be liposuction.  This procedure can remove the most amount of fat in a single procedure and should help with your issue.  

Thank you for the question and the information provided.

Based on your picture Chin liposuction and neck contouring may be an option, it will give you a sharp
jawline and will remove fat in the area beneath the chin and hanging
below the jaw, a condition sometimes referred to as “double chin.”

I recommend you to make a consultation with a board certified plastic
surgeon to discuss the best options for you. The chin area heals fast
and after few days you can see a big difference and improvement. 

Best Wishes

 At age 50, the determining factor upon which procedure to perform will depend upon the laxity of the  the skin in your neck. Most patients who are less than 50 years of age can accomplish with a neck lift procedure . In our practice, this procedure involves removal of the fatty deposits above and below the muscle and a platysma-plasty. There is no skin removal. Over age 50, a lower face and neck is required which accomplishes lifting the jowls and tightening loose facial and neck skin. For many examples of both procedures, please see the link and the video below
