What is it?

Double-chin liposuction removes fat stored under the chin through very small incisions. It can be combined with jawline contouring, which treats the fat along the edge of the jaw to better define the angle between the neck and the face. The goal is a sharper profile that still looks natural.

    • Who is it for?

  • People with fat under the chin that does not go away with diet or exercise.
  • Those who want a more defined jawline.
  • Patients with good skin elasticity (if there is a lot of sagging, the doctor may suggest combining it with another procedure).
  • People in good general health with realistic expectations.

    • What does the procedure involve?

  • 1AssessmentThe doctor evaluates the amount of fat, skin quality and your facial proportions to define the plan.
  • 2ProcedureThrough tiny, barely visible incisions, fat is suctioned from under the chin and along the jawline. It is done under local anesthesia, with or without sedation depending on the case.
  • 3Bandage or chin strapA compression garment is placed at the end to help the skin adapt to the new contour.
  • 4Follow-upThe doctor checks your progress at follow-up visits until the final result.

    • Recovery

    Swelling and some bruising during the first days are normal. The chin strap is worn as long as the doctor indicates, usually one to two weeks. Most people return to their activities within a few days, and the final contour shows as swelling goes down over the following weeks and months.

    Frequently asked questions

    Does it leave scars?

    The incisions are very small and placed in discreet areas, such as under the chin, so they are usually barely visible.

    Is the result permanent?

    The fat cells removed do not grow back. Keeping a stable weight helps maintain the result.

    When will I see the result?

    A change is noticeable within the first weeks, but the final contour shows once the swelling has fully gone down.

    How much does it cost?

    It depends on each case. After the assessment, the clinic will confirm the cost of your treatment.
