Chin liposuction at a glance

Who is chin liposuction for?

Chin liposuction suits people with a double chin caused by fat, especially when it runs in the family or stays despite weight loss. It works best when the neck skin is still firm. If the neck skin is loose, a neck lift gives a better result.

Is chin liposuction enough on its own?

Often not. A defined jawline usually depends on several things, so chin liposuction is often combined with:

• a chin implant, to bring a weak chin forward (chin correction)
• fillers along the jawline
• Botox to slim a wide jaw muscle
• a neck lift, if the skin is loose

Recovery after chin liposuction

• Mild swelling and bruising under the chin for a few days
• Back to work in about 2 days
• Wear a chin strap day and night for 1 week, then at night for 2–3 weeks
• Final shape after swelling settles over a few weeks to months
