More about the procedure
Chin liposuction effectively addresses the aesthetic problem of a double chin. This is often a problem even for otherwise slim women or men. The surgical procedure safely and painlessly removes excess fat in a matter of minutes. The result is a visible slimming of the face and sharper chin contours, which corresponds to current beauty standards. For a more pronounced effect, we recommend laser chin liposuction , which also tightens loose neck skin. The procedure is usually performed under local anaesthesia.
- The operation usually takes about 30 minutes
- It is performed under local anaesthesia
- Does not require hospitalization in the clinic
- Return to normal activities within a few days
- Wearing compression underwear for 2 weeks
- You will see the final result after approximately 2 months
For whom is chin reduction suitable
Conservative methods such as diet or exercise are often not enough as a solution to the aesthetic problem of a double chin. Surgical chin removal is suitable for women and men who are bothered by more or less excess fat in this area. The painless procedure harmonizes the face permanently and without fear of visible scars. In addition to slimming, laser chin liposuction also stimulates the tightening of loose skin.

Consultation
Our experienced surgeons will advise you whether liposuction of the second chin is the right solution for you. We will first invite you for a consultation, during which the doctor will listen to your wishes, measure the amount of fat and assess the quality of your skin. You will also tell the attending physician anything important about your medical condition, medications or dietary supplements you are taking.
If the doctor feels the procedure is appropriate for you, he or she will suggest a specific method of liposuction and inform you about the procedure and recovery. After that, you can schedule your surgery together.
Preparing for the procedure
Liposuction of the chin is performed under local anaesthesia. It does not require any complicated preparation, only a basic blood test is needed, which is included in the price of the procedure at MEDICOM Clinic.
Chin liposuction can be combined well with other aesthetic facial procedures under local anaesthesia, such as facelift, necklift or eyelid surgery.
Procedure
Liposuction of the second chin is painless. We use an anaesthetic to numb the treatment area. Once it has taken effect, the doctor will suction the fat from the designated area using a thin cannula from a small puncture under the chin, or from two inlets under the earlobes.
In the case of laser liposuction, before the actual suctioning, a special micro-cannula with a laser fiber is used to stimulate the subcutaneous tissue to produce collagen and elastin, which gradually tightens the skin. This liposuction method is gentler and shortens the healing time.
There are almost no risks involved in suctioning fat from the chin. Transient swelling, bruising or reduced sensitivity in the operated area may occur and these are normal phenomena that will subside within a few days to weeks.
Healing time
In the case of chin liposuction, the postoperative healing and overall recovery is very fast. However, we recommend sleeping on your back for the first 2 weeks. Within a few days you can return to normal activities, wait approximately 4 weeks for sports and other more strenuous physical activities as recommended by your doctor. Skip the sauna and solarium for 2 months. Protect the operated area from the sun's rays for the following months and use products with a high SPF factor.
A special compression halter is an important aid for perfect healing after liposuction. This should be worn continuously for 2 weeks for proper tissue healing.
Gentle manual massage to reduce swelling and promote healing is recommended about 2 to 3 weeks after the procedure. For effectiveness, you can use small rollers designed for facial massage.
Enjoying the result
Small scars from cannula entry are usually easy to heal. It is advisable to protect them from the sun, ideally with a high SPF (50+) cream.
The first effects of suctioning the second chin appear almost immediately. Initially they are slightly distorted by swelling, but over the next 2 to 3 months the final result is achieved.

You often wonder
Taking a blood thinner is unfortunately a contraindication to the procedure. This medication should not be taken as early as one week before the planned procedure. Thus, it is up to your hematologist to authorize discontinuation of this medication for at least 14 days (one week before and one week after the procedure) without putting you at risk.
Basically, yes. Only if your skin is too loose from the weight of the fatty tissue, the extra skin may make it more difficult to attach to the bottom of the chin. If this is the case, transverse "varhans" or skin overhangs will sometimes appear on the lower part of the chin. Before the procedure, however, the doctor will evaluate the condition of the skin and inform you of the possible risk of complications or recommend another type of procedure.
