Cost to Get Rid of Double Chin?

Kybella is an exciting new FDA- approved
treatment for submental fullness, or double chin. Kybella (Deoxycholic Acid) is
injected into the fat pad under the chin for permanent results. Often 2
or 3 treatments are needed to completely contour the chin and remove the
unwanted fat. A skillfully trained provider can determine if you are a candidate
for Kybella vs other surgical neck procedures.
The
procedure is safe and effects are evident even after one treatment!   The cost will vary based on the amount of area treated and the number of sessions recommended.

Hi there. Thank you for your question. There are many different treatment options to address stubborn fat under the chin, from completely non-invasive to minimally invasive. Cost would depend on the specific treatment plan. The best way to provide true advice would be an in-person consultation. It is very important that you see an expert provider with signifcant experience in aesthetic body contouring. Best wishes! Dr. David Amron

Kybella is an amazing
injection to dissolve the fat under the chin. The number of treatments
depends on the individual fat under the chin and how many units of Kybella are
injected. The average series of injections of Kybella is two to four
injections. You need to wait 6 to 8 weeks in between injections.
The results are permanent and the costs will vary depending on the amount of areas treated and the number of sessions.#Kybellachinfat   #doublechinfat   #Kybellainjections

Thank you for your question. There are several options for contouring the double chin area.Non surgical options include: 1) Kybella to dissolve the fatty tissue in the submental area 2) Cool-mini treatment from Coolsculpting to target the same area 3)
Adding a skin tightening device such as Ulthera or Profound to the neck
tissue in conjunction with the one of the above to further tighten the
skin. The more you combine or repeat these options, the better the result, however, the cost will go up.I
would recommend that you visit with a board certified plastic surgeon
who offers the various options above to discuss the pros/cons of each
option and help you decide which is the best for you.

Thanks for sharing.  Submental liposuction is an excellent procedure to remove the fullnes / fat underneath the chin.  Depending on the exam, Patients may need...LipoLipo and platysmaplastyLipo, platysmaplasty, and skin excisionLaser lipolysis may be an adjunt procedure that is also done with the above procedures.The cost range may be $3,500 - $6,000 depending on what needs to be done.  There may be facility fees and anesthesia fees as well.  These procedures may be performed under local anesthesia to reduce your costs.Please consult with an experienced board certified facial plastic surgeon

The cost of surgery shouldn't be your only concern when choosing a plastic surgeon for your procedure. Determine his experience, training, reputation, before and after photos, and revision rate. In Atlanta, chin liposuction can be performed under local anesthesia or under sedation. Though local anesthesia sounds like a good idea, the neck has to be injected with numbing medicine from ear to ear all the way across the neck which can be several needle sticks. The procedure takes 15 minutes under sedation and I think this would be a much more comfortable procedure. In Atlanta, chin liposuction with sedation ranges from $2000-$4000 depending on the surgeon's experience.Over the age of 45, many people lose skin elasticity and, if you fall into that category, you may need a neck lift along with the neck liposuction so the skin doesn't hang afterwards.  The best way to determine if you are a candidate for either is to visit a surgeon who specializes in facial plastic surgery procedures. 

Chin liposuction costs vary and are
dependent upon multiple factors. 
These include the surgeon’s fee, facility fee, anesthesia charges,
location of the liposuction procedure and the type of liposuction
performed.  The approach to
liposuction varies from physician to physician.  Some surgeons use general anesthesia, some use a hospital,
and some use techniques that involve expensive
technology.  Each of these
variables can affect the cost of chin liposuction.

Obtaining liposuction fee quotes on
the telephone or internet can be confusing.  Therefore, it’s important to meet with a physician and know
exactly what he or she is talking about. 
Make sure you’re not talking apples and oranges and that you’re getting
a fee quote for a comparable procedure.

In the Midwestern United States,
chin liposuction fees range from $1000 to $1500. This would typically include
the surgeons fee, facility fee, anesthesia charges and after care.

Cost is obviously important, but
it’s also important to be comfortable with the surgeon’s qualifications and
experience.  Make sure you get all
your questions answered and are comfortable with your surgeon.

The price of neck liposuction will depend upon the time required for the surgery.  For many people this can be the most significant change one can make for a relatively small amount of money.Neck liposuction might be a small procedure, but checking the credentials of your plastic survey and facility are still very important.Precision, expertise and patience is required to get the best results from chin liposuction. Liposuction, as you may have heard in the popular media, is the most commonly performed surgical procedure each year in the United States. Here's a statistic that you may not have heard: the majority of physicians performing liposuction in the United States are not plastic surgeons; in fact, many do not have any formal surgical training whatsoever. It seems hard to believe, but many physicians performing liposuction have had no more training in liposuction than a 'weekend course'. One way to determine whether or not a physician has had appropriate training in a particular surgery is to confirm that they have hospital privileges for that procedure, and that the procedure is being performed in an accredited facility.  I would not be surproised to learn that these physicians will have lower prices and perhaps set prices for surgery I fear that some practitioners view liposuction as a 'simple' surgery, since it does not involve making large incisions, and it requires little, if any, suturing. Nothing could be further from the truth. Liposuction, in my mind, is a very challenging and rewarding operation that requires careful planning and preparation, and a great deal of care and finesse when it is actually performed. It requires a three-dimensional understanding of the layers of human anatomy, an understanding that is second nature to a surgeon alone. I think that it is often an inadequate understanding of anatomy (and, perhaps, of the body's response to surgery) which leads to the poor results in liposuction that unfortunately are so often seen.

Liposuction of the fat under the chin (Submental Liposuction) can be quite effective for treating a "double chin". The cost of this surgery usually varies from $2000 to $3000 depending on the amount of time needed and the type of anesthesia used. In my San Francisco Bay Area practice, I have found that the majority of patients tolerate this procedure very well under local anesthesia, with or without mild sedation. Other procedures performed simultaneously for appropriate candidates include chin implant placement and platysmal plication, the tightening of the bands in the neck. Patients who respond best to liposuction of the neck are those who retain a bit of fat under the chin despite being at their ideal weight. 

Best,

The pricing of liposuction of the chin will vary depending on the surgical method used as well as the severity of each case. A range will be $1,500.00 to 2,500.00. This pricing includes the doctors professional fee, the facility fee and the cost of anesthesia (if needed). This pricing also includes your follow up visits after surgery.
