I am a fit 33 year old woman and I have always had a double chin. It just runs in my family.I had chin lipo done about three weeks ago. I had significant swelling and bruising around my neck. It looked as if someone had strangled me. I also had two large lumps and a rope like indention around my neck. I was really worried about what I had done, but my doctor assured me that it would all go down.My bruising went away at about a week and half and the swelling is getting better everyday. I still have hard lumps under my chin and on my neck, but I have been massaging them and they are getting better.I'm starting to see the results now. It was hard at first because I wasn't presentable to get out of the house and I had to wear the compression garment 24/7 for over a week, although I kept it on longer and still sleep in it. I'm excited that everyday I can see a difference and am really glad that I did it, so I can stop being self-conscious about my double chin and focus on more important things!

It will all go down. It seemed like it took forver for my swelling to go away, but it's been 5 months now for me and I have looked normal for a long while now. Sometimes I forget that I ever had a double chin. Good luck with your recovery. It was all worth while for me. I feel much more confident now!

Hi, I live the in the woodlands as well. I also have a slight double chin. Was it $1800 for your total surgery? thanks!!

I think that was the chin lipo portion. That is just the surgeon's portion, not including the anesthesiologist and surgery center's fees.

I am so relieve to hear that the prolonged swelling and hard lumps under my chin are part of the normal healing process of Chin Lipo.

Thanks TMW, I had my procedure done a week and 5 days ago and although my Dr. insisted the lumps and swelling were normal, I have been frantically searching the web to see if anyone else has experienced this.

If I wouldn't have come across your (tmw) comments I assure you I was already considering going to a hospital and getting checked or at least getting a 2nd opinion.

I am so relieves right now.. thanks a million for sharing your results.
