Chin Lipo

How Invasive is Neck Liposuction?

The lower portion of our face is one of the first places to show visible signs of aging and changes in weight. A little extra fat below the chin can adversely affect every aspect of how we look from frontal view to our profile. What’s worse, under-chin fat is nearly impossible to treat with diet and exercise alone. But there is hope! Neck liposuction remains the gold standard for patients looking to improve the contours of their neck and under-chin area. Patients can achieve instant, long-lasting results with a one-time procedure. However, liposuction is considered a surgical procedure that requires time for recovery. The good news is, liposuction has come a long way since it’s initial conception. So, how invasive is it?

Pinchable fat below the chin is removed, and collagen is stimulated for added skin tightening effects. Three very small incisions are made in the [...]

What’s the Best Way to Remove Neck Fat and Define the Jawline?

Have you noticed extra skin and fat under your chin or along your neck? According to the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery, submental fullness, also known as a double chin, is an issue that affects nearly 68% of all Americans. You’re not alone! While double chins are common in conjunction with weight gain, they also affect people who are at their ideal weight. A well-defined jaw and slim neckline can shave years off your appearance and make you appear younger and slimmer. There are three great procedures that remove neck fat and define the jawline. Kybella Kybella was approved by the FDA in 2015 and is the only non-surgical way to contour the chin. Kybella is injected into targeted fat areas behind the chin. It works by destroying and absorbing fat cells and preventing future fat accumulation. The body naturally removes the fat. Kybella requires several injections spaced a month apart.

Kybella or Chin Lipo: Which Should I Choose?

It seems to be a tale as old as time: No matter how hard you work out or how clean you eat, the fat tissue underneath your chin refuses to bulge.  In fact, it’s making it tough for you to show off all your hard work, simply because that double chin makes you seem like you’re carrying excessive weight. Excess submental fat – otherwise known as a double chin – happens for a variety of reasons.  One of the most obvious is weight gain; however, some people are genetically prone to developing excess submental fat.  To make matters worse, this area can be notoriously difficult to treat, as facial fat is typically lost as a result of larger weight loss. For people struggling to lose their chin fat, there are two fantastic options available at Laser Skin Care Center in Long Beach, CA – Kybella and chin liposuction.  Both treatments have been shown to significantly reduce excess underchin fat.  Both can lead to permanent results with proper diet and exercise. But when it comes down to it, which treatment is [...]
