A member asked:

Should i get a neck lift along with my chin liposuction? i have a double chin, so i'd like to get chin liposuction. i feel like my skin is also pretty loose, so i'm wondering if i'll also need a chin lift to get good results.

It : It is possible that in addition to removing excess fat from under your chin you may also need tightening of the neck tissues. Depending on your anatomy, skin elasticity and age you may also benefit from a facelift to furterh define and tighten the neck.

Yes: If you have loose neck skin, liposuction alone will probably make it worse. Combining liposuction with neck lift is agood combination for having a better neck contour.

Neck lift: Liposuction of the neck and chin area is a great procedure for patients that want more definition and just have excess fat. However, loose skin is not treated by liposuction, and would be better treated by a neck lift. You need a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon. http://www.dassmd.com/neck-lift-beverly-hills.html.

Depends: Submental liposuction (or microliposculpture) is a minimally invasive technique for removing excess deposits of fat under the chin. It can improve the look of a double chin, make the angle between your chin and neck more attractive, and define your jawline. It is not a neck lift, though, so it will not address extra loose skin, neck bands, or facial sagging. Discuss with your plastic surgeon.

Maybe: Chin liposuction is a great treatment for the neck. Whether or not you would need a neck lift depends on your present skin laxity, your age and skin condition, etc. SmartLipo is a wonderful addition to liposuction. The laser stimulate collagen production and can lead to some tightening as well. It's best to be evaluated in person to know for sure. http://www.omahacosmeticsurgery.com
