Stubborn fat under the chin and around the neck can be difficult to eliminate, even with a healthy lifestyle. Submental liposuction offers a precise solution to contour and redefine these areas, enhancing your natural profile and restoring facial harmony.
At ARCmd in Weston, we specialize in submental liposuction, helping patients achieve a more sculpted and youthful appearance through advanced, minimally invasive techniques.
During the procedure, a saline solution with local anesthesia is introduced to the target area, minimizing discomfort and reducing bleeding. A thin cannula is then inserted through small incisions under the chin or behind the ears to gently remove excess fat.
This precise technique ensures a smoother, more contoured jawline and neck, with most procedures completed in under an hour.
Following submental liposuction, patients typically experience a streamlined recovery:
Ideal candidates for submental liposuction are individuals seeking a more defined jawline and neck who have localized fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise. Candidates should be in good overall health, have good skin elasticity, and maintain realistic expectations about the procedure’s outcomes.
How soon will I see results?
Initial results are visible as swelling decreases, with full results typically seen within three to six months.
Can submental liposuction improve sagging skin?
Submental liposuction primarily removes fat. Patients with significant skin laxity may benefit from additional skin-tightening treatments.
Is the fat removal permanent?
Yes, the removed fat cells will not return; however, maintaining a stable weight is essential to preserve results.
Are there risks involved?
As with any procedure, there are risks, but complications are rare when performed by our experienced, board-certified surgeons.
What is the recovery time?
Most patients can return to light activities within a few days, with full recovery expected in a few weeks.
