As we grow older, some people tend to get what we call a double chin. This happens when skin becomes loose and excess fat accumulates and is deposited in the chin area. Even people who are fit and not overweight can get this unsightly appearance. It is proven that diet and exercise alone will not make this excess fat and skin disappear. Creams and lotions barely have any affect on it. We all want our chin to be well defined and tight.
We used to have to undergo surgery, in the form of a facelift. A revolutionary cosmetic procedure called double chin liposculture that is not only safe, but much less involved and complicated than face lifts that were used in the past. This cost effective procedure that is fairly quick with minimal risk to the patient. Using a local anesthesia for this procedure ensures the patient will be comfortable throughout the surgery. Small incisions are made in areas that are not noticeable and tiny tubes called cannula are smaller than 2mm in diameter are used to remove the fat. The fat is suctioned out of the chin and neck area into the tubes and removed. The small incisions are then closed up and a bandage is applied to the area to allow the skin to heal. This surgical procedure leaves virtually any scarring.
The double chin liposculpture procedure reduces the amount of damage to the nerves and capillaries. This procedure makes healing time much faster. Using the double chin liposculpture will ensure less bleeding and bruising is minimal. Because of the use of local anesthesia for this procedure, the patient is not sedated and therefore, can be mobile immediately after the surgery.
A chin strap is usually worn after the procedure to promote healing and a few days of light and moderate activity is all that is recommended. There are minimal risks for this surgery when done correctly. Always use only a trusted, qualified and reputable surgeon. Check credentials and ask about the risks associated with any surgery. Through initial consultations you can gather all the information you will need to determine if a double chin liposculpture would work for you.
