Liposuction for lifelong prednisone and moon face removal? (photos)

Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery procedure primarily used for removing excess fat from specific areas of the body. It is not a treatment for the side effects of lifelong prednisone use, such as “moon face”. Moon face is a common side effect of prednisone, and addressing it may require managing the underlying condition, adjusting the medication, or exploring other non-surgical options like diet and exercise. It’s important to consult with a healthcare professional for the most appropriate course of action.

Hi!Thank you for your question and your picture. Doubtlessly steroid treatments unfortunately cause lipodystrophy all over the body and it can be more challenging when facial fatting happens. As I can understand from your photograph, you have neck fatting, (probably augmented with cortisone treatment). However the small size of your chin is also a very important factor that accompanies this "double-chin" appearence.So here the treatment I wound suggest is the double chin correction with neck liposuction and chin augmentation with a chin implant. There are other ways of chin augmentation as fillers, fat injection or sliding genioplasty (a surgery where the chin bone is cut and advanced) however chin implant is the permenant and the conmvenient way to treat this problem.I hope I could help with your question.

You can consider submental liposuction and Renuvion skin tightening. Please consider a virtual consultaiton from a high definition liposuction specialist.
