When you’re considering plastic surgery, you want a surgeon who understands your perspective and respects your wishes. At Desert Hills Plastic Surgery, Dr. Hayley Brown is widely known as the top-rated female plastic surgeon in Henderson and Las Vegas. She specializes in creating natural-looking results that help you feel confident about your chin and side profile.
What Makes You a Good Candidate for Chin Liposuction?
Chin lipo could be right if you’re dealing with excess under the chin fat, aka submental fat or a double chin.
Many people who struggle with extra fat directly under the chin also have full necks or “weak” chins, in which the chin isn’t as prominent as preferred. You could be an ideal candidate if you dislike the overall appearance of the under-chin, jaw, and upper neck areas.
The best candidates for chin lipo have good skin elasticity. Essentially, this means that your skin should be able to stretch and retract back to its original firmness easily. Chin lipo removes fat, so your skin must be able to bounce back afterward. If you have poor skin elasticity or loose skin, Dr. Brown may recommend combining chin lipo with other approaches, like facelift, for optimal results.
What to Expect From Chin Liposuction
Chin liposuction is minimally invasive. In this procedure, Dr. Brown creates tiny (2-4 mm) incisions and uses a thin tube to vacuum fat deposits out and contour your chin, jaw, and upper neck areas.
It’s a relatively quick process, performed on an outpatient basis so you can return home the same day.
Most patients experience some swelling and bruising, but this typically subsides within a few days to a couple of weeks. The result is a smoother, more defined jawline that can dramatically improve your facial appearance.
Are There Alternatives to Chin Liposuction?
While there are alternatives to remove chin fat, like injectables or radiofrequency procedures, they simply don’t compare. These alternatives require multiple sessions and rarely provide the same dramatic, long-lasting results as liposuction.
