Weak chin/neck fat and chubby cheeks? (Photo)

Chin implant with liposuction would likely give you a nice result.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA.

Liposculpture of the neck and jawline can make a dramatic difference in the appearance of many who have a fatty neck and a "baby face". liposuction of the neck and the jaw line can give a well defined and crisp jawline which makes many people look younger. It also, helps those with under-developed chins. A good candidate for neck liposuction is someone of a younger or mid age who still has good skin elasticity and no hanging neck skin folds.

I find that VASER liposuction in combination with ThermiRF are best for contouring the chin in those who are candidates, but Kybella can be used as an alternative and needs to be combined with thermage/ultherapy/exilis or coolsculpting for good results. A chin implant would give more definition. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Thanks for your question and photos. There are a few options available that could potentially treat fat under the chin and define facial features. Non invasive solutions include Kybella and laser treatments, which in my opinion have less than optimal results. Surgical option would be liposculpture of the areas of concern and complimenting that with a chin implant for a more defined jaw line and profile. Alternatively, liposuction combined with skilled fat transfer along the actual jawline to make it more pronounced including the chin is a good option especially in mild to moderate situations. Best to get an in-person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon to discuss individual procedures that suit you.

Liposuction is so quick and easy and is done under local with you driving yourself home afterwards and going to work or school in 24 hrs.
