I am looking to get a more defined jawline. I have this pocket of fat underneath my chin. It does not seem to go away ever even with losing 20+ lbs. would I benefit from chin lipo? Would I be able to achieve a more defined/sharp jawline and better side profile. I am hoping to achieve something like the picture I added.
Answer: An alternative option you could benefit from would be doing Morpheus8 treatments to help define the jawline 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: Jawline Definition / Jawline Enhancement / Facial Sculpting / Facial Contouring -- injectable fillers like Revanesse Versa For a more defined jawline to strengthen your profile (and help prevent the dreaded jawline "jowl" sagging), we use injectable fillers like Revanesse Versa - a filler known to limit swelling and give subtle, soft enhancements - or Radiesse. Using a cannula to limit pain and swelling, we inject on the bone in strategic points to get more lift and shaping, resulting in a more contoured lower face and defined, structured jawline. I would suggest getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Defining the Jawline with Chin Liposuction Although diet and exercise helps get rid of fat on the body, it is difficult to target fat reduction in certain areas. In order to achieve the desired look, a defined jawline, we would need to remove fat directly from under your chin, side of your jawline, and from the neck. This can all be done with liposuction! The procedure takes less than an hour all together and the recovery time takes about two weeks.

Answer: Chin Liposuction and Thermitight Chin liposuction helps reduce the bulge under the chin and can be done for the whole neck. Once the fat is removed the skin can become loose and saggy in some cases. It can be avoided by combining it with Thermitight which is a radiofrequency heat delivered under the skin to tighten it. Both chin liposuction and Thermitight can be done at the same time. The recovery is fast and it can be done under local anesthesia. Click on the video link below Regards Dr. J

Answer: Chin liposuction under local anesthesia Thank you for your question and posting appropriate pictures. You seem to be a very good candidate for liposuction of your neck with face tite skin tightening. This is a procedure that is done under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure with minimal downtime as this is a congenital issue typically weight loss as you know that does not affect the specific area dramatically. It is best to have a virtual consultation to discuss in detail of course.
