I'm 32 and I'm struggling to solve my double chin problem. I'm very thin and always have been. I'm pleased with the appearance of my face (from the front) but I've always been upset with my profile—my face is quite thin except for under my chin. I had submandibular liposuction which has given me very little results. Do I have deep-lying fat or is it my skin? I added images of me pulling back/hiding the chin to show what I'd ideally like to achieve if it is possible.

Answer: Neck liposuction, possibly chin implant It is very likely, based on these photos and short of in person evaluation, that combination of liposuction of neck and chin augmentation with implant, would improve your neck contour. In person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with expertise in this field, possibly 3D simulation, is recommended. Good luck.

Answer: Deep necklift Dear djc8637958,Thank you for your question and photos. You are a good candidate for a deep necklift. A deep necklift addresses the platysma muscle, deep neck fat and deep neck musculature. Your neck shape is genetic. It can be optimized. It will be scarred because of the liposuction you've had. The limiting factor of how sharp your neck shape is your hyoid bone. I would also consider a small chin implant to lengthen your chin. I recommend you consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon. I hope this helps!
