What procedure do you guys suggest to remove double chin and preferably strengthen my jawline? Even when I exercise and at my most fit, my face becomes thinner but the double chin remains, and the jawline is not as prominent as I hoped. A plastic surgery group here suggests Exilis and/or V-Contour for Face (uses injection). Again, I'm a 32 y.o Asian male whose moderately active, height 5 ft 4.5 in and weights 150 lbs.
Answer: Liposuction Thanks for the question, seeking surgery can be intimidating. Most important is to find a staff and doc that make you feel comfortable and at ease. Also, you want the person doing it to be an expert. I have written several textbook chapters on liposuction and the 2017 American Society of Plastic Surgery Guidelines on Liposuction. I think laser liposuction of the neck would be a predictable, safe, and reliable way to improve your neck with minimal downtime or scarring. It can be done easily with oral sedation and numbing as you can see in this video, I am chatting with the patient

Answer: Treatment for double chin and jawline Looking at your photos, you have some fullness under your chin as well as some recession of your chin. Liposuction under your chin and augmentation of your chin with an implant would address these issues and help to balance your profile.

Answer: Young Male Chin Augmentation with Neck Liposuction Probably the most common cosmetic procedure for men under 40 (after rhinoplasty) is rejuvenation of the chin and neck. Based on your pictures (and assuming a normal exam), my suggestion would be to consider augmentation of the chin along with liposuction under your chin to remove any excess fat. Beautifully these two procedures can all be performed through one tiny (less an inch wide) incision under your chin. The chin implant will help give more profile and balance your lips and nose, while the liposuction will help make the area under the chin appear less heavy and full. As we do here in our Center, some plastic surgeons perform these procedures right in their office under local anesthesia with oral sedation. This keeps the process safe and cost effective for the patient. Recovery time is about a week until you can get back into light exercise. Best, Doc L.

Answer: Improving a Double Chin--Kybella, Thermage, VASER, ThermiRF, ultherapy, exilis, PDO nova threads 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 with or without thermage/ultherapy/exilis. PDO nova threads can further improve the jawline, while a chin implant would give more definition. See an expert. Best. Dr. Emer

Answer: Double chin it appears as if you would be an excellent candidate for chin liposuction with or without a chin implant to strengthen the prominence of your chin. I would encourage a consult with a board certified plastic surgeon.
