I'm looking for recommendation on procedures to get ride of my excess neck/chin fat! I'm 34 and very active, so I don't think a few extra hours at the gym will help. Which procedure will help resolve my issue?
Answer: Double Chin Treatment -- SmartLipo, Botox, Venus Legacy Double Chin Treatment -- SmartLipo, Botox, Venus LegacyI treat this everyday in my practice. You do not need surgery. Properly performed liposuction with laser 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. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Liposuction and Smartlipo laser lipolysis Hi and thanks for posting your quration and photo. Based on what I can see and your age you would be a great candidate for liposuction. In my practice I would also add Smartlipo which is laser lipolysis to help with additional fat melting and skin tightening. Please consult with an experienced board certified facial plastic or plastic surgeon to help you with your decision.

Answer: Neck lift or liposuction or both. Your neck looks like you might only need a liposuction. A necklift is needed if the surgeon thinks the neck skin won't shrink.

Answer: Rayna's Neck There are several options to improve this. The good news (surmised from these limited photos) is you seem to have a good skeletal foundation. Your options include the use of a variety of minimally invasive devices such as RF and ultrasound based ( the good news is that they are relatively inexpensive, the bad news is that the results will be variable). The options I would gravitate toward would either be to perform liposuction or liposuction combined with a limited or short-scar facelift. I would tend to perform one or both of these procedures since I believe your result will be more predictable and longer lasting.Good luck and make the best decision you feel you can with the best qualified surgeon you are able to see!Fred Fedok, MD FACS

Answer: Treatment of neck/chin fat Based on your photos, I would say that liposuction under your chin should improve your problem. At your age, I would say that the skin should be elastic enough to tighten after the procedure.
