While diet and exercise may help you lose weight in general, there are times when you lose weight in every area of the body except for the places where you really want to. Submental fat under the chin in particular can be very difficult to reduce. Chin liposuction is a surgical chin-contouring procedure that can be used to reduce submental fat to reshape the chin and jawline for a more defined appearance. The concept of liposuction is surprisingly simple. Liposuction is an invasive procedure that works by removing excess fat deposits located between the skin and muscle. Our doctors utilize the latest liposuction advancements that allow for smooth results, quicker recovery and an added benefit of tightening the skin.
Liposuction (also commonly known as lipo) can be a great solution to remove the toughest fat deposits that won’t budge to rigorous diets and exercise, such as the fat deposits under the chin. Chin liposuction also helps contour your jawline to look the way you prefer it to be. Losing weight the traditional way simply shrinks existing fat cells - it does not completely remove them. Since they are still there, they can easily be enlarged again. In comparison, liposuction removes the fat cells completely, making it increasingly difficult for the fat to be re-gained in the treated areas. At BeautyFix Plastic Surgery, we perform this procedure in our outpatient surgery center in New York. The surgery is performed under local anesthesia and typically takes less than an hour to complete. The results of this procedure are permanent and the recovery time is typically about 4-6 weeks, however it may take 3-6 months for a patient to see the full results and completely heal. The results of your chin liposuction will vary depending on your weight, age and overall metabolism.
The procedure is performed by suctioning the unwanted fat under the chin through small stainless-steel tubes called cannulas with the goal of creating a more contoured appearance to the face. Tumescent liposuction designates a form of liposuction that uses tumescent local anesthesia. The tumescent technique for liposuction eliminates the greatest dangers associated with the older forms of liposuction while minimizing bleeding. Our doctors at BeautyFix utilize the latest advancements in liposuction technology that allow for smoother, quicker recovery, and improved tightening of the skin. Our doctors and surgical experts help you choose the best option and answer all questions during a free consultation and assessment. Note: It is important to remember that liposuction is not a replacement for weight loss. It should be considered a treatment method for excess fat on localized areas of the body that the patient is struggling to lose despite proper diet and exercise.
At BeautyFix, the cost of chin lipo is $4,500. We offer a wide range of full financing options for our clients to ensure they get the transformation they want with a payment plan that is reasonable for them.
A good candidate for chin liposuction is defined as any person who has realistic expectations, is in good health, and is likely to be happy with the results of fat removal only. Although liposuction can often provide very substantial improvements, it is rare for liposuction results to be absolutely perfect and sometimes dermal fillers or a chin implant may be recommended to create the perfectly sculpted facial structure a patient is in search of.
Yes, many clients may consider the addition of fillers in their chin and jawline once they have fully healed from their procedure to enhance the contours of their face even further.
After liposuction, the new shape to the jawline and chin is more or less permanent. Fat cells that are removed by liposuction do not grow back.
Liposuction is considered to be safer than most plastic surgeries. The most dangerous aspect of liposuction is an attitude that ignores the risk of doing too much liposuction on a single day, or disregards the risks of doing multiple unrelated surgical procedures on the same day that liposuction surgery is performed. Rare problems that can potentially occur with any surgical procedure include infections, bleeding, skin ulcerations and/or nerve injury.
Soreness is usually the most intense 2 to 4 days after liposuction and then decreases steadily. The tenderness and soreness can be bothersome for up to 4 weeks, but gradually subsides over the following next 4 to 8 weeks.
The appearance of skin after liposuction depends on the skin’s elasticity. Skin with good elasticity should look smooth and natural after liposuction. Scars are not a common problem with modern liposuction which uses very small cannulas (microcannulas) and thus only very small incisions are required.
Liposuction is not a good treatment of obesity. Liposuction is not effective, even as a last resort, for people who are unable to lose weight by dieting and exercise.
