Submental liposuction is a delicate form that extracts excess fat from beneath the chin and upper neck, resculpting the facial profile. A slimmer, toned profile restores a youthful appearance and elongates the neck. Like all liposuction procedures, once the fat cells are removed from a particular area, they cannot grow back, making this procedure permanent and maintenance-free.

Another option for a double chin might be a neck lift, depending on the profile and skin elasticity. A neck lift treats excess skin on the neck by separating the skin from underlying tissues and creating tighter, more youthful contours by carefully lifting and draping the skin. A neck lift can help eliminate the look of prominent jowls, loose neck skin, and fat accumulation under the chin. It will also diminish age-related wrinkling and creasing in this area and increase contour definition along the jawline.
