I am 38 and would like to get pregnant within the next 3-6 months. Can I have the chin liposuction done shortly before getting pregnant? If I had it done, would my "double chin" come back with the pregnancy and negate the effects of the chin liposuction? Also, if I don't go under anesthesia for the procedure, is there any possibility of harming a future pregnancy by having the procedure done shortly before getting pregnant?
Answer: Can I have chin liposuction done shortly before getting pregnant Thank you for your question. As long as your not pregnant (conformed by urine preg. test) you can have neck liposuction, which is routinly performed under local. Consult with a Board Certified Plastic surgeon. Best Wishes.

Answer: Liposuction and Pregnancy You should be able to have this done, even under anesthesia, and get pregnant in a week. I would allow a week to make sure all of the medications are completely out of your system. Generally, even with some weight gain during pregnancy, as long as the weight gain is not excessive, the double chin should not come back. Make sure you are no longer taking pain medications before getting pregnant. This is generally a "painless" procedure and most people take nothing or Tylenol only during recovery. But, some slightly soreness for a few days afterwards is common.

Answer: Double Chin Treatment -- SmartLipo/ThermiRF/Vaser, Botox, Venus Legacy I treat this everyday in my practice. You do not need surgery and it can be done before getting pregnant -- even a day before!! Properly performed liposuction with laser/ultrasound/RF 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: No problem with liposuction of the chin before getting pregnant. Liposuction of the chin and neck is generally performed with local anesthesia. There should be no problem with attempted pregnancy immediately after the procedure.

Answer: Chin liposuction before becoming pregnant It is acceptable to undergo chin liposuction, but make sure you give yourself some time to heal before becoming pregnant. A double chin can be created from either sub-platysmal fatty deposits, or sub mental fatty deposits which is best determined at the time of examination and consultation. Local anesthesia can be employed for simple liposuction of the neck, however a neck lift will require general anesthetic which removes both fatty deposits and includes a platysma plasty. Fat cells are dynamic with weight gain and loss, and once the fatty deposits have been removed from the neck, less fullness will be gained in the neck when patients gain weight.
