I would like a sharper jawline and removal of double chin (see second picture for what I'd like my jawline and neck to look like). I'm 32 years old and have good skin elasticity so wondering if liposuction would be a better alternative to a lower face lift. However, I am concerned that the extra fat along my jawline and under my chin may be under the muscle. Your advice on the best procedure would be greatly appreciated!
Answer: Facial Liposuction Larakate Liposuction of the face is a fairly common procedure, especially in younger patients like yourself who do not require a facelift. Smaller cannulas are used to perform micro liposuction of the neck, jaw line and region under the chin to contour the lower third of the face nicely. It is a far better choice than Kybella, which is not nearly as effective and can take as long as six months to see any sort of results, which are never as good as micro liposuction. It can be performed in the office under local anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. Consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area to explore the best options for you. Good luck.

Answer: Jawline Really to Young and with good tissues position to consider a facelift. Better to do the lipo, but there are also non surgical alternatives for you, that you can discuss with the specialist.

Answer: Liposuction Both a facelift and liposuction would give you great results. However, the VASER Lipo technique is minimally invasive, using ultrasound technology to melt unwanted fat. The Gold Standard for superior liposuction results requires use of the advanced technology of ultrasound assisted VASER liposuction. As an official trainer of VASER liposuction, I perform full body liposuction cases every week. VASER liposuction has been the only modality that has consistently resulted in outstanding liposuction outcomes. VASER liposuction ensures a smooth contour regardless of degree of excess fat by virtue of being able to remove any and all remaining fat comprehensively and uniformly. If skin redundancy is observed, Renuvion technology can be simultaneously applied to tighten your skin to optimize your overall contour outcome. A Skype or FaceTime consultation with a VASER specialist will help you get an accurate recommendation and pricing. Respectfully, Arian Mowlavi MD, FACS Realself 100 Hall of Fame Inductee

Answer: Liposuction of the Neck From the picture, you do appear to be a reasonable candidate for neck liposuction. At your age, I would never consider a facelift. Whether or not you have submuscular fat requires a direct examination. If so, then direct excision of it through an excision just behind the chin could also remove that.make sure you see a plastic surgeon experienced in both neck surgery and liposuction.
