I am researching to get a chin liposuction because my face can never seem to lose weight. It makes me self conscience, I know I might need a lot taken out so I can have a sharp profile and defined jaw line instead of mush. I was wondering how long do results last as long as you take care of yourself? Is it actually removing fat from that area ?
Answer: Chin lipo and long term results Thanks for sharing. Chin liposuction is a permanent change to the neck. Chin lipo involves removing fat permanently. There are some varying techniques. I have a patient who is 8.5 months pregnant and she had chin lipo shortly before getting pregnant and her neck still looks fantastic despite being at her full pregnancy weight. It is unlikely she would ever gain this amount of weight without pregnancy and it shows me that the lipo results even with weight gain. Liposuction will have long lasting results.

Answer: Do Chin Lipo Results Last On average the surgical #results last between 4 and 7 years. However, people vary so much from one another, an exact time is difficult to provide. If you wish, you may repeat the procedure at that time. There is always an improvement compared to not having the procedure as the #aging process continues to progress throughout the future. Patients, with very loose skin will occasionally experience sagging earlier and it may be seen as soon as one year later. Such may require a secondary procedure to tighten the loose skin.

Answer: SmartLipo offers great results for neck/chin area Thank you for this wonderful question! Smart liposuction to the neck and chin area offers a beautiful result providing definition and contouring along the jawline and chin/neck area. With SmartLipo the fat cells are permanently removed which, through maintaining weight stability through a healthy diet and lifestyle, the results are able to last. Another benefit with this type of procedure allows for the tightening of the skin throughout the area treated. With the benefits of this type of procedure it is important to understand that every patient is different as well as every result. I am very careful to always discuss with my patients the need for stable weight prior to the procedure as well as the continuation of weight stability to follow. I encourage you to seek a consultation with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon where you will be able to have a thorough examination and a treatment plan presented that will best fit your aspirations. I do hope you have found this information helpful and I wish you luck!

Answer: Chin / Neck Liposuction Chin / Neck liposuction is one of the most popular liposuction procedures done. Fat is removed and that is part of the reason for the improvement but in addition the skin will re-drape and contour to the new shape. I have personally performed hundreds of these and can attest that with correct patient selection, the results are essentially permanent. When your doctor examines you he/she will be able to determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure, but based on the photo you submitted I would guess that you should anticipate excellent, permanent results with this safe simple procedure.
