1. What is the best procedure to remove excess fat from a chin? Would love to know the pros and cons of each option. I'm 41 and loose sagging jawline runs on both sides of my parents and all of my siblings. I notice if I hold my tongue up to the roof of my mouth I have less sagging. Not sure if that is helpful to know in terms of best procedure? 2. Can you get a neck lift or other procedure done while breastfeeding? Many thanks for your guidance, 41yr old mama, Sydney
Answer: Chin fat reduction via #Coolsculpting, #Kybella, #liposuction Hi. You should wait on all treatments until you are through breastfeeding (there are no definitive studies of safety). Your in person examination will determine whether you have excess fat under the skin or loose muscles. Fat can be reduced with Coolsculpting, Kybella injections or liposuction. Loose muscles require surgical repair. Nonsurgical options are attractive because there is no incision, no anesthesia requirement, and minor downtime (swelling, bruising, limited temporary discomfort) but results require time to become apparent, and may need to be repeated. Surgery gives you correction of more components (skin, muscle and fat), and results are seen immediately-cons are the incision, anesthesia requirement, and usually a chin strap has to be worn for a few weeks. Talk to your PS after your hormones and other physiology have normalized and you are done breastfeeding. Good luck!

Answer: Neck Lift Thank you for your question. I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon because you seem to be an ideal candidate for non-surgical procedures to contour your jawline and create a more youthful appearance to your neck.

Answer: Anterior neck lift Based on these photos it appears that you would be a good candidate for anterior neck lift. Through a small incision underneath the chin surgeon can remove all superficial and deep fat from the anterior neck and tighten platysma muscle. Additionally, combining liposuction and direct fat removal one can improve jowls and jawline. Very likely that you may not need any skin excision in front and behind the ears. In person evaluation and consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon with good reputation in facial rejuvenation is recommended. Good luck.

Answer: Chin sagging procedure After reviewing your pictures the face and neck lift procedure with the SMAS and Platysma in the neck is the surgery that will offer you a most long lasting and natural results. The jowls can be treated in a direct approach and the skin can be re-draped in your face in a soft and natural manner.
