Chin Liposuction For Double Chin? Normal Weight, Naturally Round Face? (photo)

Question

hi, im 5ft 6" and have never weighed over 135lbs in my life, but, despite being in a normal weight range i have a double chin, of sorts. my face is naturally round but lots of people have round faces and no double chin. my face tends to look normal from the front, but i have the worst profile thanks to my big chin, also smiling tends to make my chin look absolutely revolting. would getting liposuction on my chin be applicable? what cost would i be looking at?

From your photo it looks like liposuction of your neck and chin area will yield good results. There are photos on the link below which may help you understand what kind of results are possible with submental liposuction

Pictured is a young attractive female with obliquity in the neck most likely the result of selective fat distribution. Liposuction of the chin under local anesthesia should yield an excellent result.

Thank you for your photo.  It appears that you are young and if by exam you have a reasonable amount of fat beneath your chin then liposuction could be beneficial.  Consult with a BC PS for a definitive recommendation.

Chin liposuction may be appropriate and may make a nice improvement. The problem is that there are other things in the neck that need to be evaluated including the underlying muscle and fat underneath that muscle. Liposuction can only remove the fat above the muscle.

From your photo, you do appear to be a candidate for liposuction of your neck and under your chin. An evaluation in person would be needed to know for sure, but it seems as if the procedure could be beneficial to you. The cost is going to vary from surgeon to surgeon, but typically, it is not a relatively expensive procedure.

Thank you for posting a picture of the area of
concern. It looks as if you may be a good candidate for submental Smartlipo;
which will remove the unwanted fat deposits. The laser being used will also
help to tighten and thicken the skin. Consult with your surgeon to make sure
this procedure will benefit you.

Raj S. Ambay, MD · Answer

It is likely genetic and at your age liposuction may be a reasonable option because your skin will naturally tighten after the excess fat is removed..Cost vary by geography and expertise. Expect $2000-4000 for your neck lipo. Check with a plastic surgeon in your area.

William Portuese, MD · Answer

The picture shows a deposits of fat in both the submental and sub-platysmal area of the neck, and a weak chin profile. Consideration for a neck lift with removal of fat above and below the platysma muscle and insertion of a small chin implant would be the best option for improvement. The prices are posted on our website for both procedures

Barry L. Eppley, MD, DMD · Answer

While liposuction will make some improvement under the chin, the question is whether it will be enough. Liposuction only removes fat from above the muscle. You may also need subplatysmal fat removal to get complete elimination of your genetic double chin.

Darryl J. Blinski, MD · Answer

I might suggest liposuction + Thermigen RF therapy in combination to achieve the results you desire.
