Would Chin Liposuction Result Be Too Minimal?

Most patients with submental and neck fat will benefit from liposuction.  If you have significant sun damage, you may have loose skin.  But if your skin is resilient, the results are stellar. 

This can be a difficult result to predict. Generally I tend to simplify and group patients into two types. Those with "double chins" ( a horizontal roll of fat below and behind the chin) or a "turkey neck" (loose vertical bands that hang down from the chin).
Double chins tend to fare better with liposuction and frequently a chin augmentation.
Turkey necks typically require a skin removal and/or muscle repair. Liposuction will generally provide a minimal result without some form of skin/muscle redraping or redistribution with susupension.
It sounds as if you are describing the latter condition.

I perfomr a great deal of liposuction, but do not consider the neck and chin area a good target for this treatment. I much prefer direct visualization of the fat in this area so that I can sculpt it out with scissors. This provides me more control of the contouring, and prevents divoting or rippling that I have seen in this area when liposuctino is performed. Generally, the thickness of the fat pad in the neck is thinnner than the fat pads we target in other areas of the body with liposuction. This can result in the cannula that is removing the fat repeatedly bumping the deep surface of the skin, and lead to scarring. With less than a two inch incision directly underneath the chin, a very controlled sculpting of this area can be done with limited risk, and predictably excellent results.
