What are the benefits of Chin Liposculpture?
You will give yourself a more youthful appearance with AdvanceLipo chin liposculpture. By removing fat from under the jaw line, we can highlight the mandible and shrink the jowls, significantly lessening the appearance of a double chin. Some of our patients see immediate improvement, for others they must wait until the swelling subsides to see the dramatic change. For both patients, the effects will be permanent without scarring or stitches.
What areas of the chin can be treated?
Fat can be removed from below the chin, in the lower cheeks, and the jowls. Dr. Calhoun performs the treatment in the manner that will give the patient the best possible appearance. The AdvanceLipo process will help correct skin flabbiness and laxity in most of our patients. The result will be a more sculpted and youthful appearance.
What is the procedure like for chin liposculpture?
Unlike traditional surgery, liposculpture for your chin area is quick, easy, and virtually painless. The procedure takes about an hour and is performed by our AdvanceLipo experts.
- Patients are first analyzed in detail for the best possible results.
- After the analysis, patients are diagramed using a marker so that the doctor can custom shape your chin area in the most ideal fashion.
- Patients are then given lidocaine to numb the skin. There is no general anesthesia or IV sedation required. Our patients will walk out of the operation just as they walked in. You can chat with the doctor or assistants during the procedure or simply relax and listen to music, it is your choice.
- During the process he will use small puncture holes and small tube called a cannula, which is just a little bigger than the size of a ball point pen tip, in the areas selected for treatment. A solution is pushed into the fat to help break it up, numb and prepare fat cells for removal.
- After the local numbing takes place, Dr. Calhoun will typically use a combination of power assisted liposuction, laser assisted lipolysis, and/or ultrasound assisted lipolysis with the ultra small suction cannulas to produce not only the best results, but the quickest recovery time possible.
What results can I expect?
No doctor can guarantee perfection with liposculpture, but improvement can be depended on. Most of our patients look more sculpted, thinner, and more youthful following the procedure. In many cases, chin liposculpture produces the most dramatic change to appearance as any of our procedures. Even though minimal fat is removed compared to larger areas such as the abdomen, the profound effect on appearance is most noticeable in the face.
Will I need skin tightening?
Skin tightening depends on how well your body produces collagen fibers. Using our AdvanceLipo technique, your skin will be tightened with a special laser, ultrasound, or power assisted liposuction during the procedure. Results will vary patient to patient and depend on many factors such as age, past weight loss, and skin laxativity. If you are interested in additional tightening, please bring it to our attention during your consultation.
How do I care for my chin area after the procedure?
After the procedure you will wear a small compression garment that will assist in the absorption of fluid that may leak from the small holes used to remove the fat during the procedure. The garment is a bit like an ace bandage and somewhat unsightly, but it must be worn for 48 hours to minimize bruising and swelling. Small pads will sit between the garment and your skin to absorb the fluid for the 2-4 days following the procedure. At our facility we notice swelling typically lasts for a few days, but the majority of swelling is resolved in the first 24 hours. No stitches are required after the procedure; the small holes will heal quickly on their own.
It’s a good idea not to shower for about 24 hours after the procedure and full immersion such as swimming or sitting in a hot tub should be avoided for about a week.
How long does it take to heal?
Age, health, and scope of the procedure are all determining factors in the recovery. For the typical patient to completely heal and be free of soreness it usually takes about a week, however it varies greatly from patient to patient.
When can I go back to work?
Some of our patients return to work immediately following the procedure or simply take the rest of the day off and return the following day. However, most patients typically take about 2 days off before returning to work, usually because they have to wear the somewhat unsightly compression garment.
Can I combine chin liposculpture with other procedures?
Of course! Plus, our simple and affordable pricing structure means that additional areas cost less.
Many patients combine chin liposculpture with the thighs, arms, or abdomen liposculpture. Whatever areas you choose, it is recommended to treat as many areas as safe in one procedure. However, there is a limit on how many procedures can be done in one treatment. Only a consultation with our qualified staff will let you know for sure.
