What Is Chin Liposuction?

If you’ve ever struggled with getting rid of a double chin or dreamt of having a chiseled jawline but can’t achieve progress, we have the solution for you. At JustGO Lipo, Dr. Singh offers our patients minimally invasive chin liposuction to help them eliminate their double chin. Neck liposuction takes nearly 60 minutes, making it a quick outpatient procedure. It uses a small cannula to gently remove excess fat beneath the chin, creating a more defined and balanced facial profile.

Minimally Invasive & Awake Chin Liposuction Technique

Many people are afraid of undergoing simple procedures like liposuction due to the fear of general anesthesia. Surgical complications and scars are other factors that often keep patients from going through even the safest procedures. We can address these concerns using the latest techniques:

Without General Anesthesia

Our minimally invasive liposuction procedures are done awake. We perform chin liposuction using state-of-the-art technology that eliminates the need for general anesthesia and ensures faster recovery, better results, and minimal scarring. We can perform chin liposuction without general anesthesia using the tumescent technique and Pro-Nox.

Tumescent liposuction is a procedure that entails the injection of a tumescent solution (which includes a local anesthetic, epinephrine, and saline) into subcutaneous fat, thus preparing it for liposuction with minimal discomfort. Pro-Nox is an analgesic system that uses inhaled oxygen and nitrous oxide to relieve fast-acting pain and provide mild sedation. Using this system, we do not have to administer general anesthesia to our patients for the procedure.

The actual fat removal is done through VASER liposuction. This type of ultrasonic liposuction is unique in that it allows our physician, Dr. Singh, to be both gentle and extremely precise while removing unwanted fat. In this technique, strong ultrasound waves break down the bonds within the fatty tissue, allowing the fat to be sucked out. Unlike traditional liposuction, it is less invasive and minimizes damage to surrounding tissue.

To make the results stand out even more, our physician, Dr. Singh, recommends adding Renuvion along with liposuction. Renuvion is a tool that helps tighten loose skin and improve the overall results. It gives patients the “wow” factor they are looking for after treatment.

Remember, liposuction is only a fat-removal procedure, not a skin-tightening one. Most patients do not like that their skin becomes saggy and loses some of its firmness after procedures like liposuction, so complementing them with Renuvion is an excellent option.

What to Expect After Chin Liposuction? Chin Lipo Recovery Procedure

Since our chin liposuction is minimally invasive and does not necessitate general anesthesia, the recovery is usually very quick. In general, the most you can expect is mild bruising and swelling for one week after the procedure. You might also be required to wear a compression garment 5 to 7 days after the procedure. Since every case differs, we will provide detailed post-operative instructions for your needs. Here is a typical recovery timeline:

  • Days 1–2: Mild swelling, bruising, and tightness around the chin and neck area. You will be advised to rest and wear a compression garment continuously.
  • Days 3–5: Swelling starts to subside. Most patients can resume light activities and work, depending on comfort.
  • Days 5–7: Based on your surgeon’s guidance, compression garment use may be reduced or discontinued.
  • Week 2: Bruising and swelling continue to fade. Results become more noticeable.
  • Week 3 and Beyond: Most residual swelling resolves. Final contours will continue to be refined over the next few months.

Aftercare Tips

Following your awake chin liposuction procedure, proper aftercare is essential to support healing, enhance comfort, and help you achieve your aesthetic goals. While recovery is generally quick, you should take some crucial steps in the days after treatment:

If you have any questions or concerns during recovery, don’t hesitate to reach out to our team.

  • Wear your chin strap as directed to help reduce swelling and support your new contour.
  • Take all prescribed pain medication as instructed to manage discomfort effectively.
  • Avoid touching the treatment area while the numbing solution is still active to prevent accidental injury.
  • Keep the area clean and dry, especially around the small stitches used to close entry points.
  • Follow all post-op instructions closely and attend your follow-up visits to stay on track with your aesthetic goals.

How to Preserve Chin Liposuction Results

Chin liposuction can deliver lasting improvements, but maintaining your results over time requires care and commitment. After the procedure, it’s important to take proactive steps to protect the refined contour of your neck and chin area and ensure your desired outcome remains long-term.
To help preserve your results:
  • Follow a proper diet and maintain a healthy lifestyle to prevent weight gain, which can affect your body shape and the appearance of the neck and chin area.
  • Understand that while liposuction removes fat tissue, the natural aging process may still impact skin elasticity over time.
  • Avoid nicotine or quit smoking entirely, as it can interfere with healing and negatively affect your skin’s tone and tightness.

By supporting your body with healthy habits and following your provider’s guidance, you can enjoy your enhanced profile for years to come.

Can We Extend Chin Liposuction to the Neck Area?

Yes, chin liposuction can often be extended to include the neck for more comprehensive contouring. Many patients find that combining both areas enhances their overall profile and delivers a smoother transition between the jawline and neckline. The combined procedure takes slightly longer than chin liposuction alone and can often be performed during the same session. While neck liposuction costs may vary depending on the size of the treatment area and whether other procedures, such as dermal fillers or skin-tightening treatments, are added, it remains a popular option for those seeking more dramatic, yet natural-looking results.

Ideal Candidates for Chin Liposuction

Consultation with our physician will determine if the procedure suits you. However, you are a good candidate for chin liposuction if you:
  • Are 21 to 70 years of age
  • Are a non-smoker
  • Are in good health with an ideal weight
  • Have firm, elastic skin and muscle tone
  • Have bulky or puffy fat around your neck and jawline
  • Are not taking medications like nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), anticoagulants, and antiplatelets
  • Have no life-threatening condition that might interfere with the procedure and the healing process

Most Asked Questions

In general, the results of chin liposuction can remain permanent, provided that a person maintains a stable weight, according to the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery. The most common cause of failure of chin liposuction is the person regaining a lot of weight, which leads to fat accumulation around the chin area again. Weight gain can cause the remaining fat cells to expand significantly.

To ensure that the effects of chin liposuction are permanent, it is crucial to maintain a healthy weight and eat a healthy diet. As we complement chin liposuction with Renuvion, which tightens the skin, the effects are even longer-lasting since not only the fat but the skin is also treated.

During the procedure, Dr. Singh inserts a cannula. This device breaks up the fat cells, which are suctioned out of the body. Removing these fat cells is permanent; once they’re gone, they can’t regenerate.

Yes, post-surgical scars are inevitable. However, these scars are minor and easily concealed, thanks to our physician’s experience and the modern techniques he uses that involve the placement of tiny incisions only. Patients concerned about scarring following liposuction may be advised to take precautionary measures at home that reduce the risk of scarring. Post-wound care is also critical for shortening healing periods. Moreover, pushing yourself too hard too soon may cause the incision to stretch and enlarge. To prevent scars from darkening, avoid prolonged sun exposure and wear sunscreen at all times. Non-smokers often have fewer visible scars than smokers. After surgery, we offer detailed instructions on how to heal quickly and reduce scarring. A topical cream may also be advised to aid healing.

While the cost of neck liposuction for plastic surgery is comparatively cheap, it is still costly enough to consider whether you will get the most out of the procedure. Since the technique focuses on removing excess fat from the neck and chin rather than extensive contouring, neck liposuction surgery tends to benefit younger individuals more than those in their forties or fifties. Those with loose and sagging skin from age might benefit more from a neck lift rather than a neck liposuction operation.

The chin lipo surgery itself is not painful because you will be anesthetized for it. Most of the time, only local anesthesia is required for chin liposuction. You will be awake yet relaxed and unconcerned with the procedure. The lidocaine in the tumescent fluid causes numbness that lasts for several hours after the surgery. However, you should expect soreness and post-operative discomfort after the surgery. Most patients’ complaints are minor. You can treat your pain with prescription pain medication if it is severe. The soreness and discomfort will likely be at their peak 1-2 days following the treatment and will gradually improve over time.

While a neck liposuction procedure focuses on the minimally invasive removal of excess fat, a neck lift procedure is more extensive, with a longer recovery time and a higher chance of complications. Instead of neck liposuction, a neck lift eliminates sagging skin and tightens muscles around the neck and chin. This is an excellent procedure for older people who want to reduce drooping and sagging skin to achieve a younger-looking face. If you need clarification about which procedure you should undergo, that can only be determined after a thorough examination and consultation with a facial plastic surgeon. A neck lift necessitates a more invasive treatment and several weeks of recovery time. While neck liposuction recovery is rapid, you must exercise caution to minimize issues throughout your neck lift recovery.

Compression garments are often recommended after chin liposuction to minimize swelling and support healing. These garments help reduce fluid accumulation and conform the skin to its new shape. The duration for wearing the compression garment can vary, but it’s typically worn for 5 to 7 days following the procedure. Our physician will provide specific instructions based on your individual needs, the extent of the procedure, and how your recovery is progressing. Following these instructions closely will contribute to optimal healing and results.

Recovery from chin liposuction can vary among individuals, depending on the individual’s healing rates and adherence to post-operative care instructions. Most patients can typically resume normal activities within the week, although strenuous exercise must be avoided for an extended period, as advised by the physician. Swelling and bruising usually diminish within a few weeks, but mild swelling may persist for several months. The final contouring results may take a few months as the area heals and settles fully. Regular follow-up appointments with our physician will help monitor progress and address any concerns during this time. Maintaining open communication with our medical team and following our guidance ensures a smooth and successful recovery.

Great doctor and staff! After 3 weeks I’ve had incredible results with Vaser Lipo 360 and it’s because the doctor spent the extra time to help me achieve the results I wanted.
