I am fit 31 year old male that with age my double chin has been getting bigger. My body % fat is at 13% so there is no way to get rid off my double chin unless I starved myself, so this is a hereditary issue.
I read about Kybella first and went for a consultation at Skin Spectrum in Tucson, they only do Kybella so they don't do any plastic surgeries procedures. They did recommend Kybella for me but they didn't sound very assurance of my potential results since I was going to be the first male around my age that they will treat.
I decided to go to Dr. Maloney at Maloney Plastic Surgery in Tucson who stated the three options I had was Kybella, chin lipo and chin lipow/face lift. He strongly recommended chin lipo for me only because it's less expensive than Kybella and my skin is healthy and young so I didn't need a face lift at this age.
I had my chin lipo on 1/27/16. The procedure was not painful, it was just weird and uncomfortable. It was done in about 30 minutes. My neck was numb and didn't feel any pain until the next day but the pain killers fixed that.

24 hours follow up

I went to see Dr. Maloney today for my 24 hours follow up and he said everything looks great. I should expect some swelling and to come back in 3 months to take some pictures. The pain is very minimal now, I can go on with my normal life like nothing happen, however I plan going into hibernation for the rest of the week just because I have to wear the head wrap :)
Even though there is still some swelling I can tell the difference 24 hours after the procedure. I am starting to think this was really worth the money.

You're 10 years founder than I am, and leaner/lighter than am, but we both suffer(ed) the same problem. I had neck/chin lipo just under 5 weeks ago (Dec 29th). My results were not as immediate as yours. Your results are great for this stage in the game. It's encouraging for what you can hope to see longer term. I found the swelling didn't really go away until the 4th week. And only this week am I seeing the lumps go down significantly. It's definitely a process. Some days, I think things look great, other days, not as much. Still, I see improvement. I think you're on track, and hopefully going to be very happy.

I'll be honest with you. They didn't do enough, by far. I don't think it is all swelling, either. Check out other results. If you aren't content after a month, I would ask them to redo and take out much more. Just my opinion. And they should NOT charge for it. Please post again after a month so others can see if they think the same...

No bruises ever. The incision was made right under my chin, you can't tell is there.
Thanks for explaining why you chose lipo, it is always interesting to hear. I hope you keep us posted on the rest of your recovery and on your results when that time comes.
