Chin & Neck
Liposuction
Lower face sculpting
The face isn’t the first area people think of when they hear “liposuction,” but stubborn fat deposits around the chin and neck can lead to a less defined jawline and make you look heavier than you are. If you’ve tried addressing these concerns with diet and exercise but haven’t seen the results you want, chin and neck liposuction can help you achieve your aesthetic goals.
What is Chin & Neck Liposuction?
Many consider liposuction to be a body procedure, but it has great capabilities for the face as well. Lower facial liposuction is one of the most effective ways to eliminate unwanted fat from the chin, neck and jawline, helping you achieve a more contoured and youthful appearance. Depending on your needs and goals, it can even produce a more natural result than a facelift.
Chin and neck liposuction is often used to address the following concerns:
- Submental fat, otherwise called a “double chin”
- Neck fullness, which can create a bulky appearance
- Fat deposits along the jawline, leading to jowls
- Contour irregularities and asymmetry
- The appearance of a “turkey neck”
Unwanted fat in the chin, neck and lower face often doesn’t respond well to diet or exercise, but by precisely targeting these areas with specialized liposuction techniques, you can dramatically improve your facial contours to create a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Benefits of Chin & Neck Liposuction
- Creates more sculpted and defined facial contours
- Small incisions result in little to no visible scarring
- Quick procedure often performed under local anesthesia
- Effective for treating a variety of concerns
- Lasting results when combined with a healthy lifestyle
- Minimal recovery time following the procedure (a few days to a week)
Ideal candidates for
Chin & Neck Liposuction
If you’ve noticed the skin beneath your jaw has begun to sag or you’ve always had extra fat in the lower facial area that’s bothered you, chin and neck liposuction may be right for you. Ideal candidates for this procedure should be healthy and have good skin elasticity, which helps ensure your new contours will remain firm and smooth after the fat removal process.
Additionally, candidates for chin and neck liposuction should have realistic expectations about their potential results. While this procedure can significantly enhance your facial contours, it doesn’t effectively address issues like severe skin laxity, which may respond better to a face or neck lift. By consulting with a skilled provider, you can determine if this procedure aligns with your goals and receive a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

What to expect during treatment
Chin and neck liposuction can be performed by itself or in combination with a facelift and other liposuction procedures. During your initial consultation with our team, we will thoroughly evaluate your concerns to recommend the best approach for achieving your aesthetic goals.
On the day of your procedure, you’ll be welcomed into our comfortable state-of-the-art surgical facility in Miami, Florida. Depending on your preferences and how much fat is being removed either general or local anesthesia will be used to keep you comfortable during surgery. Once the anesthesia has taken effect, your surgeon will insert a cannula through small incisions in the treatment area, carefully moving it back and forth to dislodge fat cells and suction them away.
This surgery takes less than an hour to complete in total. Afterward, you’ll be able to return home and begin the recovery process. To ensure your safety, a trusted friend or family member will need to drive you home and stay with you for the first 24 hours after your procedure.

recovery
Following your chin and neck liposuction, you will be fitted with a compression garment to help promote quick healing. The total recovery time for this procedure is about four to six weeks, but most patients feel comfortable returning to work within a few days. For the best results, wear your compression garments as directed and refrain from strenuous activities until cleared by your surgeon. You can expect swelling, bruising and redness in the treated area, but these side effects are normal and temporary, and should subside over the following days or weeks.
Attending follow-up appointments with your surgeon is critical to monitor your progress, allowing us to check that you are healing properly and achieving your expected results. If you have questions at any point during your recovery, we encourage you to contact our office — our team is dedicated to ensuring that you feel comfortable and supported through the entire process.

Chin & Neck Liposuction results
Chin and neck liposuction offers transformative results that can enhance your facial contours and improve your overall appearance. Right after your procedure, you will likely notice an immediate reduction in the amount of fat in the treated areas. However, due to swelling and bruising, the initial results might not fully reflect the final outcome. The compression garment you wear will help control swelling and support the new contours as your body heals.
Over the following weeks, the enhanced contours of your chin and neck will be gradually revealed. You’ll notice a more sharply defined jawline, smoother facial contours and improved symmetry, as well as a remarkable reduction in the appearance of a double chin or jowls. Once your final results develop, you can expect them to be long-lasting with a healthy lifestyle.
