Neck liposuction is also called “submental liposuction” since it involves the removal of fat under the chin. Our patient was bothered by the appearance of her exercise-resistant neck fat that was causing a double-chin. We prefer neck liposuction to Kybella since it’s cost-effective with little downtime- leading to more predictable results.
These photos demonstrate the cumulative benefit of combining neck liposuction with chin implant surgery. In this instance, we used the largest chin implant available - a Flower’s Mandibular Glove, size XL. Surgery time is under an hour, and there is little downtime. His implant was placed through a one-inch incision under his chin.
Our lovely patient requested chin implant surgery to enhance her profile and jawline. In this case, an Extended Anatomical Medium implant was placed through a small incision under her chin. Downtime is around one week or less.
Sometimes the appearance of a retrusive chin may make someone’s nose appear larger than it is. In this example, rhinoplasty was performed with chin implant surgery for a more pleasing and balanced profile appearance. She received an Extended Anatomical Medium implant.
This is another example of rhinoplasty surgery combined with chin implant surgery for a balanced and pleasing facial profile appearance. Our patient had an Extended Anatomical Medium implant placed just before commencing rhinoplasty.
