Even when I was very young and thin, I always had at least one spare chin. People often told me how pretty I was, but I could only see a pig face when I looked at photos. I tried for years to avoid them and I often felt guilty when people in groups would get upset with me for ducking out. When I agreed, the photo taker would always smile and say, "see, you look great" while showing me pig-faced pics. I would end up in tears. Now, I cannot stop taking and posting selfies. The fat face is gone! I had laser lipo under my chin. I still look like me, only a much better version. I can't get over the fact that "it" is all gone! Right after the surgery, I looked better, but I worried because I still had a weird bulge on one side under my jaw. It was better than the double chin, but not what I'd envisioned. I was disappointed, but lived with it and didn't say anything until... suddenly... it was gone and I felt great! I would do it again any day. Here are my before and after pics...

What a great result! Was it just a single treatment? How long did it take before u saw results and do u know which laser your doctor used?

Thanks! I just had one procedure. I am not sure which laser was used. I saw results right away.. within a day. It took three months for a little bump on one side to go away. It looked way better even with the bump. I am thrilled! :-)

I think you're stunning and I'm glad you had such positive results! Was there much pain? Were you awake or asleep? How much "down" time was there? if any - Or, how long did you have to take off work? Did you have to wear any kind of compression band under your chin? I'm curious about all the little details because I am thinking I'd perhaps like to do under my chin - I have a small "waddle" that I think would be easy to get rid of then. Thank you!

I stayed awake. It didn't hurt much. Afterwards, it felt like a sunburn for about six weeks. I was only down for a day, but funny looking for 3 days. I work at home, so I was okay. I would recommend doing it on a Thursday and then taking Friday and the weekend off. It was one of my best decisions ever. I do not miss the waddle :-)

It looks great, what a change. I hope I get the same result, I am glad to know things healed nicely after surgery. I am only 12 days out, still tender with lumps and numbness. All the best, again you look great, and thank you for your updates.

Thank you sooo much. I had one big ugly lump that lasted almost three months and then it went away. I still liked my chin better than before, but I feared being lopsided for a whole. It just keeps getting better. Best of luck to you. Enjoy being chin free! :-)
