I have a minor double chin that will make its appearance when I sometimes smile or look down. I have gained 7 lbs and plan to lose this weight but i’m not sure if this will resolve my issue of a double chin or jowls/skin laxity? I’m not sure if a chin lipo is the way or if I should consider a neck lift/chin implant or some other non invasive procedure (filler/ulthera).,
Answer: Recommend doing a less invasive procedure such as ultherapy or morpheus8 to help target the small amount of unwanted fat Morpheus 8 is 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 acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. 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. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Realself100 Surgeon

Answer: Chin Contouring with VASER, ThermiRF, Coolsculpting, Kybella, Thermage, Ultherapy, Exilis, J plasma/Renuvion/Inmode BodyTite I find that VASER liposuction in combination with Renuvion or ThermiRF are best for contouring the chin in those who are candidates, but Kybella can be used as an alternative and gets better results when combined with Thermage/Ultherapy/Exilis, TruSculpt iD, or Coolsculpting. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Chin liposuction Dear kazsye, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photos, it looks like you would benefit from chin liposuction. If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Am I a candidate for chin liposuction or a neck lift Much more information is needed, such as a full set of facial and neck photographs from all angles in addition to your age. Liposuction can accomplish the removal of the fat deposits located above the muscle, while a neck lift procedure accomplishes removal of fat deposits above and below the platysma muscle in addition to a platysma plasty.
