Double chin removal with Liposuction
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that can remove fat from the chin and neck area. According to Dr. Liland, “Chin liposuction is the most common plastic surgery technique used to reduce the appearance of the double chin.” The double chin removal with liposuction involves small incisions typically in areas that are not noticeable/ less noticeable. A thin tube, called a cannula, is then inserted by the surgeon to disrupt the fat in the area. Suction is used with the cannula to remove the fat. Following the chin lipo procedure, your neck and chin will be wrapped in bandaging.
A good candidate for double chin removal is someone who is in good health, living a healthy lifestyle, and ready to commit to a surgical procedure. There is some downtime and side effects associated with chin liposuction. Some lingering sensations could remain for a few months. You will most likely wear bandaging for several weeks. Results can last for many years so long as you remain living a healthy lifestyle and using good skincare.

Double chin removal with CoolSculpting
CoolSculpting is the world’s leading non-surgical fat reduction procedure. The chin is a very popular area for Cool Sculpting. CoolSculpting uses a cold technology, called Cryolipolysis, to freeze your fat cells to death. Over time, the dead fat cells will naturally flush out of your body. Within those weeks you will gradually start to see the reduction in the area that was treated. Full results can take up to 3 months to achieve.
A good candidate for someone looking for double chin removal with CoolSculpting is in good health, living a healthy lifestyle and not wanting to/ or cannot undergo a surgical procedure. There is no down time associated with CoolSculpting, however some lingering side effects such as bruising and numbness can occur. You can resume normal activities as soon as possible following your COOLSCULPTING procedure.
Which double chin removal procedure is the best fit for me?
