I am 39 and at a healthy weight, and overall was happy with my appearance but started to develop a double chin over the last few years. I blame my genes - lots of women in my family have this! My weight had not changed, yet this had developed. I hated seeing pictures from the side and just wanted a more defined jawline and neck like always had before. I looked at Kybella, but didn't like the reviews I read and it wasn't cheap either...once I started looking into chin lipo and realized it could be done in-office and only under local anesthesia I just decided to bite the bullet. I had a consult with Dr. Markey and was impressed by him and the office staff, and went ahead and booked with him.
The day of the procedure, I drove myself (I was offered Xanax to take the morning of but I declined), and the entire procedure took about 45 minutes. It was painless, just an interesting pulling sensation. Just one small incision on my chin...was put in a compression wrap and was able to drive myself home! That evening there was some pain, but extra strength tylenol was all I needed. I wore the compression wrap 24/7 for 3 days, then nightly only for the following 2 weeks. I saw results immediately, and there was some minimal swelling and brusing on my neck but it was gone by day 4-5. I am thrilled with my results! No loose skin (part of the Allura procedeure is a laser after the lip step that tightens skin), and I have a nice defined jaw line again! I have recommended the procedure and Dr. Markey to many friends already.
