Do I need Chin Liposuction again? (Photos)

Question

I had Chin liposuction a year ago and the results were minimal. I still have a double chin—I’m very thin and look fit beside this stubborn area. Looking at my pictures of me now, what can I do to get a well-defined jawline? I’m not interested in a chin implant—I already had a sliding genioplasty which I like. When I see doctors for a consult they say the issue is my skin, that there isn’t much fat, but everyone says I'm not a good candidate for a neck lift. So I don’t know what to do...

A non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Hello. Unfortunately, liposuction only removes very little fat from the superficial fat layer in a very limited way. Therefore, I recommend my technique submentoplasty to most of my patients. It will also be very useful for you. It ensures that the skin of this area is firmly in place. In addition, unfortunately, your doctor who operated on you before overlooked that your chin tip is small, the sagging in your food still continues due to your small chin, and this also needs to be enlarged. I’m the only triple board-certified facial plastic surgeon all around Europe. I’m just focused on this issue. I am a doctor who goes to almost every country in the world and explains my techniques to important doctors with the seminar invitations I receive, so I am definitely the only doctor who can perform your operation very comfortably and successfully. You can get more detailed information about me, ask all questions about your case and sending your photos to my assistants at the number on my profile (+90 539 204 40 90). You can also book an online consultation and discuss your problems with me. With all respect.

The photos are insufficient to give you absolute advice but it appears that you have a poorly defined cervical mental angle. I would suggest a platysmaplasty to improve this angle with a simultaneous reduction of a small amount of submental skin. This should improve the overall contour and definition.

Dear djc8637958,
I understand your concern. However, without a proper assessment, it would be difficult to determine what went wrong. It is best that you visit your plastic surgeon for further assessment or ask for a second opinion. Only after a thorough examination, you can get proper recommendations and advice.

Your problem is not related to fat distribution. individuals Who have an undersized mandibal tend to have the following characteristics. An overbite dental occlusion, upper lip the projects more than the lower lip and profile pictures, lack of jawline definition and information of a premature double chin. The sliding genie of plasty advanced the tip of your mandable but doing so had no impact on the rest of the mandable. individuals with a long projecting mandible tend to have more defined jaw lines because of how the platysma muscle drapes the neck. when the mandible does not project the platysma muscle drapes the neck in the more oblique fashion. extending the tip does not move the platysma muscle. to advance the body of the mandable a jaw advancement is required. that may be a little bit more than what most people are willing to undergo.If Liposuction didn’t work the first time then it is highly unlikely to give improvements by doing the same thing twice. The reason Liposuction failed to give good improvements was because fat was not the problem.
Each individual persons unique face is based on bone structure. Soft tissue coverage tends to be very consistent from person to person.
A pletism plasty or necklift may be soft tissue options but generally speaking the best results always, from procedures that address the primary problem.
