Chin & Neck Liposuction

Liposuction is the gold standard for removing unwanted fat, and Dr. Jason Bloom’s artistic eye and expertise make him one of the most sought-after facial plastic surgeons in the Bryn Mawr and Philadelphia area for this procedure.

Chin and neck liposuction from Dr. Bloom

Many individuals are bothered by the fullness under their chin and at the neck. Excess fat in this area can often add age or weight to a person’s entire appearance. Dr. Bloom is able to meticulously sculpt the neck and the area beneath the chin using neck and chin liposuction. This facial liposuction treatment refines the profile and brings facial features into proportion.

For enhanced results, Dr. Bloom may recommend additional procedures such as a neck lift or non-invasive treatments to help tighten loose skin after liposuction, because although liposuction is ideal for improving a double chin and enhancing jawline definition, it’s important to understand that this procedure does not address sagging or excess skin.

Is neck liposuction right for you?

If you’re in the Bryn Mawr and Philadelphia area and you’re considering chin liposuction, neck liposuction, or any kind of facial liposuction, you may be the perfect candidate. The best patients for this procedure are those who:

Are younger, with firm skin tone and localized fat
Dislike the excess fat around their neck
Are in good physical, mental, and emotional health
Have realistic expectations about what neck and chin liposuction can accomplish

Before & After

Chin and neck liposuction procedure details, and what to expect afterward

Neck and chin liposuction can be performed under local or twilight anesthesia, with recovery as little as a few days. The procedure requires tiny incisions that are placed in the natural creases of the skin beneath the chin (and possibly behind the earlobes). Dr. Bloom will carefully excise the skin away from the underlying structures of the area and effectively remove the fat. Once healed, the incisions are essentially invisible. The recovery period for facial liposuction such as neck and chin liposuction is about one week.

As with any invasive procedure, you can expect mild bruising, swelling, tenderness, and bleeding. Be sure to refrain from intense physical activity to get the best results.

Early results can be seen at about two weeks, and your skin will continue to contour around the jawline over the course of approximately three months. Final results are typically apparent at six months.

FAQ

Will neck liposuction get rid of my turkey neck?

No. Chin and neck liposuction only removes fat, not excess loose skin. To remove a turkey wattle neck, we recommend a neck lift.

What other procedures go well with facial liposuction?

A neck lift or a facelift are often performed with chin and neck liposuction for an overall rejuvenated appearance.
