Chin lipo with Facetite or Endolift - which will offer better results?

Question

I’m currently torn between 2 doctors for chin lipo. One doctor offers chin lipo with Facetite while the other offers chin lipo with endolifting. Can anyone tell me which provides better results? Also, the doctor offering endolift offers nano fat to the chin to improve side profile but I’m not sure if will do that.

Anna Chacon, MD, FAAD · Answer

Both are energy-assisted tightening devices used with liposuction.

FaceTite:
radiofrequency-based
more widely studied
good for moderate laxity
Endolift:
laser-based
less invasive
more subtle tightening
Which is better?

Depends on:
degree of laxity
surgeon experience

My clinical take:
The provider matters more than the device.

I would focus exclusively on who has the best before and after pictures. 
Start the process by getting a set of proper facial pictures of yourself.
Bring these pictures with you to in person consultations to use as a reference.
During each consultation, ask each provider to open up their portfolio and show you their entire collection of before, and after pictures of previous patients who had the same candidacy for the procedure.
This means they should be approximately the same age, have the same Facial, skeletal structure, similar amounts of body, fat, etc. 
Mastering chin, Liposuction is not easy or straightforward.
Most plastic surgeons are not particularly good at Liposuction.
Providers are unlikely to show you anything but their best results.
A provider who can do the procedure well consistently should have more before and after pictures than you have time to look at during the consultation.
Look for providers who focus exclusively on Liposuction.
For those who have done thousands of these cases or at least hundreds.
If someone claims to have done a lot of chin, liposuction procedures, then they should have a lot of before and after pictures to show you.
Seeing a few examples of the best results of a providers career is insufficient to get a clear understanding of what average results look like in the hands of each provider.
 The secondary energy devices don’t really add much to the procedure in my opinion.
Make sure you’re a good candidate for Liposuction of this area in the first place.
I would also recommend you consult with more providers before making a decision on a permanent irreversible facial contouring procedure. 
Good luck,
