30 y/o female with overdeveloped jaw muscles and significant submental fat - Am I a candidate for chin liposuction? (photos)

November 6, 2024
Asked By:jukiko94

I have significant submental fat; however, I also have overdeveloped muscles under my jaw, as my dentist put it. Perhaps as a result of TMJ? If I stretch my chin up to the sky, the muscle pokes out and is firm to the touch. That is why I am asking if chin lipo alone would help my case or if I need a more in-depth procedure. For reference I'm a 30-year-old Eurasian female. Thank you!
