Chin Liposuction

Genetics, hormones and other factors determine where fat is stored on your body. For some people, submental or chin fat is a cosmetic problem. The infamous “double chin” can occur when you gain weight, but many people experience this issue even when they are within normal weight ranges. To remove a double chin, Dr. Sedgh Facial Plastic Surgery offers chin liposuction at our surgical facility in Los Angeles, CA.

Excess fat under the chin and around the neck can make the face look heavy. Since submental fat is more common with age, it can also make a person appear older. Diet and exercise are ineffective at targeting specific fatty areas like a double chin. The best solutions are cosmetic procedures to permanently remove fat from under the chin, including liposuction.

Why Choose Chin Liposuction?

Excess fat under the chin, also known as submental fat, can make the face appear fuller and aged. Although weight gain can lead to a double chin, many people have stubborn chin fat even at healthy weight levels due to genetics and other factors. For those looking to enhance chin definition, chin liposuction offers an effective, minimally invasive solution.

The Chin Liposuction Procedure

In this outpatient procedure, Dr. Sedgh uses a small, well-hidden incision under the chin to access and remove excess fat. Through this incision, a fine cannula is inserted to loosen and suction out submental fat. The surgery is often performed with local anesthesia and mild sedation, making it minimally invasive while achieving precise, attractive results.

Procedure Highlights:

Small, hidden incision under the chin for minimal scarring
Use of a micro-cannula for precision fat removal
Minimal downtime, with most patients returning to normal activities within one week

Chin Liposuction FAQ

How long do the results of chin liposuction last?
Chin liposuction provides permanent results, as the fat cells removed during the procedure do not grow back. Maintaining a stable weight will help prolong your results.

Will I need a neck lift with my chin liposuction?
Chin liposuction effectively removes excess fat but does not address loose skin. Patients with significant skin laxity may benefit from a neck lift for optimal contouring and tightening.

Is chin liposuction painful?
Discomfort is generally minimal and manageable with prescribed medications. Dr. Sedgh uses local anesthesia and mild sedation to ensure a comfortable experience during the procedure.

How soon can I see the final results?
Initial results are noticeable soon after swelling subsides, usually within two weeks. Full results become evident in a few months as the skin conforms to the new chin contours.

Can chin liposuction be combined with other procedures?
Yes, chin liposuction is often combined with other facial procedures such as a neck lift, facelift, or rhinoplasty to achieve a harmonious facial profile.
