Procedure Details

This patient chose to have Chin/Neck liposuction with our team instead of pursuing multiple sessions of Kybella. Kybella is an injection that address chin fat or a double chin. It typically takes multiple sessions and most patients experience a significant amount of swelling under the chin for the first few days. With liposuction under the chin, it is a one time surgery done under IV sedation and results are seen quickly. A bandage is worn for one week following the chin liposuction procedure. It is not painful and most patients return to normal daily duties the next day.

This Hispanic mother is a previous patient of Dr. Yaker and noticed in her thirties fat under her chin and neck area. She stated even when she lost weight, she did not loose it in the chin area. This is a very difficult area to loose weight once the body chooses to store fat in this area. More

Front View

The scar is a very thin, short line (approximately 1/4 - 1/2 inch) under the chin are and typically heals and can not be seen. More

Side View

The profile view shows the contoured postoperative view. Most patients state that people ask if they have lost weight, simply because the fat under the chin makes the face appear fuller and once the submental fat is removed the face is contoured and appears thinner. More
