Well it's been a little over four weeks since my chin lipo and I'm very happy with the results. I'm still a little swollen and there's still one knot but it appears to be getting smaller everyday, anyway here are my updated photos.

I'm doing mini coolsculpting for my doublechin in July. Originally it was suggested I do smartlipo, but the idea of the procedure terrifies me. You have had a beautiful result and very natural. What was the final deciding factor for going with lipo?

In my opinion lipo was the easier and best choice, it's a one time procedure that only last about 15 minutes and it's painless, with the exception of the numbing shots but I'm a big baby who hates shots so if I can do it I'm sure you world be fine. Coolsculpting takes more than one session and each session is much longer than the one time lipo procedure plus in my opinion lipo results are better than cool sculpting results. I hope this was helpful........good luck on whichever procedure you chose.

I can definitely see a difference. I didn't know you could get your chin lipoed. I've been thinking about letting Sono Bella do some e work On my stomach next yr. I've got to save up some money for it.

Looks great! I am having this procedure done in 2 weeks and I believe my incisions will be in the same place as yours were. I was a bit nervous to have the two side incisions not be back by my ears, but you seem to be healing very nicely! Did your doctor lipo further back along the jaw past where your incisions are or did he only lipo in the front around where your incisions are?

Hi, are you wearing your chin strap to work? Has anyone asked you anything about your chin? Did the Dr. tell you how much fat he removed? I'm thinking about having it done too but don't want to wear the chin strap in public/at work. Thanks for sharing; I'll be following your progress. Looking good so far!

Thank you,.,,,,....no I don't wear it to work or out in public but I do put it on as soon as I get home from work. I have a 2 week follow up appointment with my doctor on May 6th and I'll find out how much longer I'm required to wear it,
