How Much Does Fat Chin or Double Chin Surgery/liposuction Cost?

Question

Well I'm short 4'11 and I'm 19 years old almost 20, my neck is short and I have this little fat chin that I like to get rid of it, I don't like it at all and it's very uncomfortable for me. Are the scars visible or is there a way to make the scars less visible?

Cost factors vary significantly for a number of good reasons: Prices vary greatly because the surgery itself encompasses a wide range of techniques that can be performed to different extents. My recommendation is to first find the most qualified surgeons where you want the surgery performed that are board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery you trust, then compare prices between them. See the below link on suggestions on how to find the most qualified plastic surgeon for your procedure. General Factors that influence the price of plastic surgery include:

1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctor’s office? Geographical location also has a significant influence. RealSelf has average charges for most areas of the USA.

2. Type of Anesthesia - local, IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a board certified anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, or an RN be used?
     
       3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best and longest trained is most often a plastic surgeon board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery
    
       4. Length and Complexity of Surgery - how difficult will your surgery be and how long it will take, etc. Will other complementary procedures also be also performed during the same surgery?

Chin liposuction may be $2000 to $3000 on the low end.  Find a plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of facial procedures each year.  Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results.  Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Because there are several ways to address contouring of the chin and neck, it is not possible to provide one cost (range $2500 - $10,000+).  I recommend consulting with a board certified plastic surgeon who does this facial work so the s/he can best determine what is needed and thus what the cost will be.  Glad to help...

We would charge starting at $1000-2500 + MD Anesthesia related expenses (if an MD Anesthesiologist is necessary on the case). For the most cost effective procedure performed with the highest standard of care, consult with surgeons who own their own nationally accredited surgery center. To understand your options, consult with 3 experienced and expert board certified plastic surgeons.
