Chin liposuction

I have been contemplating chin lipo since I was 16 years old. My double chin has always been something I’ve been self conscience about and that started from a very early age. Both my mom and dad have thicker chins..my brother, however does not (lucky duck). I have struggled with my weight my whole life, further adding to my insecurity regarding my chin. Regardless of how much weight I lost or would lose, my chin was always there. I would cringe when my friends or family members tagged me in photos or I caught a glimpse of myself in a video or photo I was unaware of being taken. In 2007, my dad decided to have liposuction on his chin. Weeks after his surgery, he looked so good and so much younger, that I knew I wanted to have mine done one day. The only things holding me back were the downtime from work and the cost. In addition to lipo, I also considered Kybella. The thing that really appealed to me about Kybella was that it was non-surgical and took 30 minutes to do. After much research, I actually scheduled an appointment for Kybella for May 4th. Upon making my appointment, I once again went back and forth on my decision, wondering if it was indeed the best option. After even more extensive research, I decided to ultimately cancel that appointment due to the fact that the cost was roughly the same as chin liposuction and I had read that the pain and swelling just weren’t worth it. Not to mention that it took up to 3 treatments...so I would have had to go through the pain and swelling three times over..I finally decided to go through with chin Lipo on Monday, May 7th. I took a week off work and so far, I’m very happy with the results. I’m only on day 4 post-op and still have mild swelling and light bruising. I have had no complications. The most annoying part has been wearing the compression garment around my chin/neck/head, which honestly hasn’t even been that bad. Overall, I am very happy with my decision.
