Submental Liposuction Overview

Submental Liposuction for Double Chin Reduction

Commonly referred to as a "double chin”, these localized pockets of fat can create an imbalance in facial contours and detract from an otherwise elegant profile. At our Manhattan practice, Dr. Klausner carefully removes excess fat, sculpting the submental region and redefining your lower face. With her meticulous technique and dedication to personalized treatment, Dr. Klausner helps patients regain confidence by restoring a lovely facial silhouette and achieving a rejuvenated aesthetic.

The Benefits of Submental Liposuction

The typical effects of aging or weight gain may often result in undesirable fat just below the chin.

At the Klausner Institute in Manhattan, Dr. Klausner performs submental liposuction to address stubborn fat under the chin and help refine the neck and jawline, offering several noticeable benefits, including:

Minimizes a double-chin
Adds definition to the jawline and chin
Enhances your profile
Obtains a more vibrant appearance
Eradicates difficult, unwelcome fat on the neck and chin zones
Can be grouped with other facial plastic surgeries or a chin implant
Quick recovery period
Nominal and practically imperceptible scarring

How Does Submental Liposuction Work?

Submental liposuction, performed with precision by Dr. Lee Ann M. Klausner, involves a process that targets and removes excess fat beneath the chin and neck area. Through small incisions, a thin cannula is inserted to gently suction out unwanted fat deposits, sculpting the submental region for a more contoured and defined profile. Dr. Klausner's expertise ensures that the procedure is customized to fit each patient's unique anatomy, resulting in natural-looking results that enhance the face's overall appearance. This minimally invasive approach can significantly improve your overall look and provide lasting aesthetic benefits, allowing patients to enjoy a more youthful and refined neck and jawline contour.

Candidacy: Who Should Consider Submental Liposuction?

Our neck liposuction in New York City & Manhattan is ideal for patients with stubborn fat under the chin and around the neck that does not respond to exercise or a healthy diet. Some patients can achieve a more defined, sculpted look with submental liposuction alone; however, for others, it may worsen the appearance of sagging skin. For these patients, Dr. Klausner combines submental liposuction with FaceTite by InMode, a minimally invasive alternative to a facelift. FaceTite is a facial contouring device that uses radiofrequency to contract and tighten the skin. You can visit the FaceTite page on our website for more information on this highly effective additional procedure.

Neck Liposuction Recovery

Recovery following submental liposuction at our Manhattan practice is typically quick, with most patients experiencing minimal disruption to their daily routine. For the first few days, mild swelling, tightness, and localized bruising around the chin and upper neck are normal and expected as your tissue heals. Dr. Klausner recommends wearing a supportive chin compression garment during the initial recovery window to minimize swelling, support tissue adaptation, and help define your new jawline contours.

Most patients feel comfortable returning to desk work and social activities within 3 to 5 days, with minor residual swelling settling over the following weeks. Finally, beautifully contoured results emerge as the tissues settle, revealing a more refined chin and neck silhouette. Dr. Klausner will provide you with personalized aftercare guidelines to ensure a seamless recovery after your procedure.

Does submental liposuction hurt?

Some patients report mild discomfort during and after the procedure. Dr. Klausner will numb the area before starting submental liposuction to help minimize any pain. We also provide detailed post-operative instructions to help ensure a smooth recovery. We aim to ensure you are as comfortable as possible throughout the process.

Is submental liposuction safe?

Yes, submental liposuction is a safe and effective cosmetic procedure when performed by a trusted professional. Dr. Klausner is a highly experienced plastic surgeon who has performed countless successful treatments with spectacular results. Patients with concerns or questions are encouraged to discuss them in full with our team.

Do results from submental liposuction look natural?

Dr. Klausner takes great care in creating natural-looking results that complement your overall appearance. Submental liposuction can help you achieve a more youthful, refreshed look without anyone knowing you’ve had work done. Additionally, since we combine submental liposuction with FaceTite by InMode, you can also enjoy tighter submental skin.

Are the results of submental liposuction permanent?

Yes, the fat cells removed during the procedure are permanently eliminated. Maintaining a stable weight will ensure your newly contoured jawline and sleek neck profile remain long-lasting.
