Submental liposuction
Achieve a defined, youthful contour with Submental Liposuction.
Submental liposuction targets the area beneath the chin to remove stubborn fat deposits that cause a double chin. This minimally invasive procedure involves a small incision under the chin, through which a cannula is used to suction out excess fat. Performed under local anesthesia or sedation, submental liposuction requires a short recovery time. The result is a smoother, more sculpted neck and jawline. Ideal for those with localized fat and minimal skin laxity, this procedure helps create a more youthful and refreshed facial appearance.
Transform your profile with Submental Liposuction.
A double chin is a common aesthetic concern, where excess fat accumulates beneath the chin, leading to a fuller, less defined neck and jawline. It can be caused by various factors, including genetics, aging, and weight fluctuations. While lifestyle changes may help manage fat levels, submental liposuction is an effective solution for those with persistent fat deposits that do not respond to diet or exercise. This procedure provides a permanent solution to reduce fat in the submental area and improve facial contours, offering a more youthful, sculpted profile.

Recovery after submental liposuction is typically quick, with most patients experiencing only mild swelling and bruising. You may need to wear a compression garment for a few days to help minimize swelling. Many patients can return to work and regular activities within a week, though it’s advised to avoid strenuous exercise for a few weeks to ensure proper healing.
The results of submental liposuction are permanent as long as you maintain a stable weight. The fat cells that are removed do not return, so once the contour is achieved, it will be long-lasting. However, if there is significant weight gain after the procedure, new fat deposits may form in the area, potentially affecting the results.
Good candidates for submental liposuction are individuals with localized fat deposits under the chin but who have good skin elasticity. This procedure is most effective for those who do not have significant skin sagging or loose skin, as it focuses on fat removal rather than skin tightening. A consultation will determine if it’s the best option for your aesthetic goals.
No, submental liposuction is typically performed under local anesthesia or sedation. This means that the procedure can be done on an outpatient basis with minimal downtime, making it a less invasive option compared to more extensive surgeries. General anesthesia is not necessary, and most patients find the procedure to be relatively comfortable.
