Hi there, I am planning on getting chin liposuction to lose my turkey neck double chin (hereditary) and have a more defined jaw line. I know there are several different types of liposuction but which would be the best method to get the best results? I am not worried about price or recovery, just whichever method will give the best result ideally with the smallest scar. Any advice would me much appreciated! Thank you
Answer: Double Chin Treatment -- SmartLipo, Botox, Venus Legacy I treat this everyday in my practice. 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 of the chin is easily done with local anesthesia. The results of liposuction of the chin are generally quite good in properly selected patients. They are made no better by use of a laser or ultrasound.

Answer: Liposuction options I agree with one of the expert's opinion here that one should choose the surgeon and his skill and not necessarily the device. Liposuction is really just done one way by suctioning the subcutaneous fat. However, there is an art to this and experience counts. It is the skill of the surgeon to know how much to remove and how much to leave. Also additional small incisions behind the earlobe for better access may mean an even better improvement but added incisions. Smartlipo laser lipolysis may be used in conjunction with liposuction to get additional skin tightening.

Answer: Best method for fat removal on the neck In the neck, there are 2 compartments of fat, above and below the platysma muscle. In our office, we perform open liposuction of the fat above the platysma muscle, and surgically dissect out the fat underneath the platysma muscle. A platysma plasty is also required to given more jawline definition. This procedure is considered in neck lift without any skin removal and is accomplished with 2 small incisions behind the ears and a one-inch incision underneath the chin. When there is excess skin present in the neck and patients are over 50 years of age, a lower face and neck lift is required.
