How much does a chin liposuction cost around where I live? Bridgeport CT (Photo)

Question

Hello, I'm 22 years old and I weight about 120 pounds, and I'm 5'6. I'd say I'm pretty slim over all since I have a really small frame. But from my dads side of the family I always had a chubby face and a double chin no matter how much weight I lose.. I don't mind the cheeks but was thinking of getting a liposuction under my chin. Do you think that will bring out my jawline? My dreams has always been to have a strong jawline.. (I do have a pretty normal chin) thanks in advance

Our office specializes in chin liposuction. The cost of treatment in Los Angeles is guided by the amount of fat to be removed, the type of liposuction, and the facility/anesthesia charges. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Cost factors vary significantly for a number of good reasons: Prices vary greatly because the surgery itself encompasses a wide range of techniques that can be performed to different extents. My recommendation is to first find the most qualified surgeons where you want the surgery performed that are board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery you trust, then compare prices between them. See the below link on suggestions on how to find the most qualified plastic surgeon for your procedure. General Factors that influence the price of plastic surgery include:

1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctor’s office? Geographical location also has a significant influence. RealSelf has average charges for most areas of the USA.

2. Type of Anesthesia - local, IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a board certified anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, or an RN be used?
     
       3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best and longest trained is most often a plastic surgeon board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery
    
       4. Length and Complexity of Surgery - how difficult will your surgery be and how long it will take, etc. Will other complementary procedures also be also performed during the same surgery?

In your case liposuction of the chin and neck can be easily performed with local anesthesia. I would expect to pay around the thousand dollars.

For uncomplicated liposuction under the chin (submental  suction lipectomy), we charge $2750.  This includes the preoperative appointment, procedure, and all postoperative followups.  We have laughing gas available for $50.  Please read the realself reviews of our practice, as some of our patients have posted pre- and postoperative photos of liposuction under the chin.
At age 22 and 120 lbs, you are a good candidate due to your skin elasticity.  I anticipate a much better defined jawline.

There are 2 types of fatty deposits located in the neck. These or sub mental fat which is located above the platysma, and sub-platysmal fat located below the platysmal muscle. Both deposits of fat must be removed in order to rejuvenate the neck  and cleanup the jawline. If subplatysmal fat is removed, a platysma plasty is required. For many examples, more information, and our price  list, please see the link and the video below
