Hello. By the appearance of your photograph, you may very well be a good candidate for isolated liposuction of your neck. I have been using an ultrasonic assisted liposuction tool called VASER for years with nice results. There are many ways to remove this fat via liposuction surgery. It can typically be performed under local (tumescent) anesthesia, right in the surgeon's office. The procedure is typically safe and complications are rare. Post-operative swelling and bruising are typical but may not be severe. You will be required to wear a compression garment on your neck for at least one week and possibly longer. Liposuction of the neck is a common procedure and will likely satisy your expectations in the right surgeon's hands.
I treat this everyday in my practice. You may be a surgical candidate but you do not need surgery for improvement. Properly performed liposuction with energy based devices and physical fat removal will do fantastic to remove the fat, lift the skin, and contour the jawline. I pretreat everyone with Botox 1-2 weeks before surgery to relax the neck muscles, allowing for better retraction of the skin after surgery. Then after treatment we do skin tightening with Venus Legacy to improve the results and decrease the neck swelling. I suggest you only see an expert for treatment of this area as a meticulous surgeon is required to get great results and complications in this area can be devastating both medically and cosmetically. A new medication that is used to remove chin fat with injections called Kybella may also be an option, as it secondarily allows for skin tightening/lifting as well. A formal consultation is needed to determine what are the best options for you. Best, Dr. Emer.
Yes you can get that localized area of fat removed via liposuction. It would be a short procedure and recovery should be short. expect swelling and bruising post operative.
yes, it looks like liposuction would work well. There is also a device called Thermi RF which could add to the effectiveness of the liposuction. Either way I think you will see a noticeable difference with one treatment !
From your pictures it is possible that submental liposuction might be a reasonable procedure to address the fullness under your chin but at 15 there is a significant likelihood that you are still developing and that your facial skeleton may change as well as your weight with maturity. At...
You may benefit from liposuction done with your doctor's office. 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...
Blood clots, or hematomas, after surgery should generally be drained if they are of any significant size. Hematomas are quite rare after liposuction. When they form, they usually leave discoloration, such as bruising, for many weeks. Clotted blood will also liquefy within two weeks. At that...
