I've never had a double chin but my chin has always been soft. I wanted my rhinoplasty to pop more without a chin implant so I went with lipo. It's a bit swollen after the procedure and surprisingly itchy. I'm trying to keep the binder on because I know it helps to keep the swelling down but it's really annoying to wear. I do take it off to eat but that's it. I'm excited to see what everything looks like when the swelling goes away.

Congrats. Neck lipo is awesome. It's one of the safest, quickest healing procedures you can get. Worth every penny IMO.

The swelling is going away already at 3 days post surgery. after one week you get to take of the silly head strap during the day so work could probably resume then. Just my guess.

Please let us know how everything is going! I am considering jaw line lipo myself due to a fat transfer overfill. I am wondering how much time I'll need to take off work. Did your Dr let you know how long the swelling is expected to last?

Whichh doctor did you exactly go too. Trying to google but several are coming up.

I'm posting a few pictures to show the swelling at day 3 and bruising. It's not that bad. I'm just waiting to see how it will look after a few months because I've heard it can take a while for full results.

How swollen would you say your chin and jaw are?
April 4, 2015
I doesn't look very swollen but it feels like it is. I'd say it's always back to normal now at 5 days post surgery. I'll post another picture.

*almost not always

awesome- that's good to know- I've scheduled 5 working days off for recovery
April 9, 2015
5 days should definitely be enough. :)

do you get scars after it
May 10, 2015
There's a very small scar under my chin that's getting lighter every day. It's smaller then an apple seed.

How is your range of motion? One gal posted on here that after her chin lipo she couldn't look up very far anymore, or turn her head side to side without it hurting. She said her driving has been affected too! Just curious if that's been your experience as well...
April 4, 2015
Side to side feels normal. Been I tilt my head back it feels a little tight but nothing that would make driving difficult. I had a small amount done so it could be because of that maybe?

What happens to the outside skin after the fat is taken out? I would think it would be all loose and flabby?
April 5, 2015
I don't know. I hope it retracts along with all the tissue. :/

If it's elastic skin it should snap back. Hence people who look after their skin and protect it from sun get a lot of benefit from simple lipo.

I'm 2 week post op & still very swollen in my cheeks & neck. You look great. Haven't seen instant results yet. My neck is also lumpy with lines like the Michelin tire man. Just going to have to be patient. It takes a long time.
