Double chin surgery
There are a number of different ways to permanently remove fat deposits in the neck and chin area. Depending on the amount of fat deposits, treatment with fat injection or liposuction is appropriate for permanent results. In the case of fat injection, the result does not appear until after a few days, as the dissolved fat cells are only slowly broken down.
For liposuction, the swelling solution is injected into the cells using very fine cannulas. This relaxes the fat cells and allows them to be suctioned out in the next step. The small incisions needed for cannulation are made in a hidden way, for example behind the ears or under the chin.
Because fat cells do not grow back in adulthood, the result is permanent. Liposuction is often combined with other procedures such as a face lift or chin correction.
One of the most common signs of aging is sagging skin and loss of firmness in the neck and chin area.

Lumbar liposuction, is an operation to remove fatty tissue from the problem area of the chin. Before the operation, the adipose tissue incision is made with ultrasound or special preparations. Chin liposuction surgery takes from 30 minutes to several hours (depending on the degree of need for surgical intervention), and is performed under local or general anesthesia. Thanks to modern technologies, chin liposuction is considered to be of low risk. The incisions are made in hidden places, in the area of the ears or in the area under the lower jaw. In some cases, liposuction is done through incisions in the mouth.
The liposuction procedure applied in the jaw area begins to heal in as short a time as a week. The use of a chin lift after the operation will reduce the recovery time and provide a better result at the end of this period. At the end of the first week period, spontaneous dilation begins due to the operation performed in the jaw area. Over time, this stretch makes the jaw look better and in shape.
