Submental Liposuction

Submental liposuction, often called double chin surgery, is a cosmetic procedure that targets excess fat under the chin. At Peak Dental Implants & Oral Surgery, we understand the desire for your outward appearance to match how youthful you feel inside. We’re here to provide expert care to help you achieve a more refined neck contour.

Benefits of Submental Liposuction

This procedure offers a way to reshape the area under your chin for a more youthful and defined appearance. One of the primary benefits is an improved neck contour, as the removal of excess fat enhances the jawline. For many patients, this procedure can also help tighten the neck skin, creating a smoother look. With small incisions and a straightforward recovery, submental liposuction provides lasting results with minimal downtime.

The Submental Liposuction Procedure

Your journey begins with a private consultation where we listen to your goals and assess your chin and neck. This allows us to create a customized treatment plan just for you.

The procedure is typically performed with local anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Your surgeon will make a small, discreet incision under the chin to gently remove the unwanted fat cells. The process is precise and focused on creating a natural contour. After the procedure, you can expect some mild bruising and swelling, which usually subsides within a few days. Most patients are able to return to their normal activities in about a week.

Is Submental Liposuction Right for You?

This procedure may be a wonderful choice if you are bothered by the appearance of a double chin.

Ideal candidates for submental liposuction often have:

Excess fat located under the chin
A desire for a more defined jawline and neck
Good skin elasticity for the best contouring results

During your consultation, we can also discuss non-surgical alternatives, like injections with deoxycholic acid, to determine the best path forward for your specific needs and goals.
