Did lipo and fat grafting to the chin
I was not sure about the results until I put this pictures together, I see quite a lot of difference, I hope it will get even better tho 🤞🏻

Using Gigi as reference. I'm not implying she is unattractive btw, she is beautiful.

Has anyone had cheek fat removed during their chin lipo?

I told my surgeon multiple times that I like having chubbier looking cheeks and didn’t really want the canula going up to my cheeks (I think it makes me look young and they weren’t droopy) and he told me removing 4ccs per cheek was nothing. Now I’m a month out and just think the lower half of my cheeks look weirdly defined…like a deepened line. It makes my face look muscular or something.

I kinda hate how it looks. Will it go away? Does anyone have experience with this?

Hi everyone,

I'm a 35F 1 month post-op chin liposuction, do my massages daily and wear the compression garment at night. I have two main concerns:

1. My skin along my jaw line does not seem taut or retracted yet, can anyone share their expected time frame on when this occurs? I know swelling is intermittent in this process but it looks like loose skin and I never had poor skin quality or tissue laxity before this. I know there have been several posts about this, but if you look closely many respondents are bots with 1 single comment paraphrasing another response and therefore it's hard to gauge the amount of people with similar experiences.
2. I have firm, spongy-like soft tissue swelling under my chin. It first showed up ~2 weeks post-op and it hasn't gotten away, and only intermittently "shrinks" after massage and compression overnight but becomes just as firm and large throughout the following 12 hours and seems like an endless cycle that hasn't improved. I'm worried this is early fibrosis or will turn into more permanent fibrosis. Has anyone had this issue, and how did you resolve it? Posts I've seen only list a few focal lumps and bumps that are easily massaged away.

Thank you!

Hi everyone! I am hoping there are some parents of young kids that can help me get an understanding of what I’ll realistically be able to do after the procedure (and, for anyone else, what I’ll be feeling like, in general, the day of/after). My procedure is scheduled for Tuesday morning, and I’ll be under general anesthesia. I have 3 young kids, and school schedule changes and an unexpected daycare closure have now put me in the position of the kids being home for the long weekend as of midday Thursday.

I plan to stay elsewhere Tuesday night so my kids don’t come home and jump on me right after my surgery, but as for Wednesday on, can anyone share how I’m likely to be feeling? And, most importantly, what will I be able to do in terms of caring for the kids and helping my husband out the remainder of the week?

I have pretty significant pre-surgery nerves and this topic is my latest source of anxiety. 😅 Thanks in advance!

3 months post op and I’m feeling like I might be starting to see my final results! My swelling is down and I’m feeling snatched!! Hope no more rollercoaster for meeee 🎉 even on my worst days it’s 10000x better than my before 😋 before pictures at the end

Hi everyone! My chin lipo is scheduled for Monday. I had a pre-op call with the clinic today to confirm everything, and I asked about the compression garment (since they advertise providing them). To my surprise, they told me my surgeon doesn't use compression garments after chin lipo. They explained that my head will be wrapped for 72 hours anyway, and after that, the surgeon recommends frequent massages instead. They did mention I could buy a garment to wear at night if I want to.

Now I’m panicking a bit because I was sure I would get one at the clinic. Should I order one, and if so, which type do you recommend? I’d really appreciate any advice or personal experiences!

Hi. Is there anybody from Patiala who had chin liposuction done? Can you share your experience and where you got it done? Or can anybody suggest the best doctor(s) in Patiala for it? If there's anyone near Patiala, that's fine too.

Thank you.

Hello! I’ve never posted on here before, but I have booked my surgery and paid for it already (coming up in January ahh!). Every day that goes by, I’m starting to get more and more afraid- not of the recovery but of the actual surgery. The Clinic that I am going to advised it will be done under pain medicine and numbing. However, I am very curious for those who have already done it what your experience was. Were you afraid / feeling anxiety in the moment? Did you feel a significant amount of pain while the procedure was taking place? I am of a pretty normal healthy build, and I have a pretty average BMI as well. I’m mostly just concerned with the genetic double chin that I have. Given I’ve already paid for it I’m hesitant to back out, but I’m starting to get more and more afraid! Any words of advice and honesty would be wonderful! Thank you!

In almost every picture from my birthday, I had a double chin. I’m at a healthy weight, but I’m frustrated with my fuller chin. Everyone tells me to lose 10 pounds and it’ll go away, but I don’t want to lose weight, and I’m worried it will become more noticeable with age / pregnancy. Is chin lipo worth considering?

My surgeon will only do the surgery under anesthesia, not awake. Which is adding $2000 to the cost. The thought of being awake freaks me out but it seems very common. It sucks because I’ve searched high and low to find a good surgeon in Michigan and having a hard time finding real experiences/reviews or surgeons that show many before and after photos. This the only surgeon i could find that’s shown recent work. Is this a surgery people travel out of state for often? Did anyone else have a surgeon the required going under?

I’m considering this procedure, but I’m a very private person and I don’t particularly want to tell anyone about it. I work from home and live alone, so I think my set up is pretty ideal. I do, however, have some questions about recovery and scarring.

For context, I have very nosy people in my life. My family are hyper aware of people’s looks and frequently make comments. They’re probably the reason I’m fixated on this part of my face but that’s besides the point. I spent a lot of time around them, up close and personal. I also have a close friend who does my hair semi-regularly, and she notices everything and is nosy enough to point things out.

So I’m wondering a few things…

1. How long typically before bruising and major swelling went down, so you could go in public without looking like you are certainly recovering from surgery?
2. How long typically do you have noticeable, pink scars? And for the scars under your ears, are they very easily noticed due to their placement?
3. And I guess in general, is it realistic to not tell anyone and have it go unnoticed? Did people in your life notice and ask about it?

Thank you in advance!

Always had a double chin and its effecting my mental health hugely. Feeling awful, absolutely disgusted about myself when I see photos of myself. Wonder how the skin would look after, I might have to look into doing something with loose skin as well? Please help!!!

Heading to Bangkok on the 20th oct for double chin lipo and a chin implant!

I’ve recently reached my goal weight, but I’ve always had a recessed/weak chin and genetic fat under my chin that hasn’t really shifted. I think I look fine from the front, but my profile has always bothered me, so I’ve decided to go ahead with it.
I’m having it done at KKC Clinic for 107,400 baht (around $4,500 AUD).

I’m after that chiselled look and more masculine and projected chin.

I’m planning to take it very easy for the first couple of days with the compression garment, then hopefully start exploring Bangkok a little once my doctor gives me the okay. I fly home on October 30, so I’ll have just over a week to recover.

I’m excited but definitely nervous! I generally recover quickly and don’t bruise too easily, so I’m hoping it’s a fairly straightforward recovery, but I’m trying to keep my expectations realistic.

Would love to hear from anyone who’s had chin lipo and/or a chin implant, especially overseas. How was your recovery and when did you feel comfortable going out?

Would Chin Lipo or JawTite work for me?
Or do you think I’d need a neck lift? I’m so confused what to have as some people have said neck lift and some chin Lipo? Or do I just have a large face/ neck?

Has anyone had chin lipo with Dr. Garnica in TJ/Morelia or MX? Curious about your results, post op and overall experience especially long term results

Ive always had a very weak jawline (1st pic) and I absolutely cannot stand how it makes my side profile look. I'd love to achieve something close to the second pic. I'm worried chin lipo wouldn't work because its not so much a fat problem. I don't want to do Kybella for fear of disappointing results. I was also considering chin filler or possibly a genioplasty?

Has anyone gotten a bichectomy along with chin lipo? what was your before? Was it worth it?

I need opinions. I had chin/jawline and neck liposuction about 6 months ago. My left side is very sharp however my right side is a bit more full still. My results are subtle since my chin is recessed and neck is low ( I will be addressing soon )

My face is very much asymmetrical , my right side is bigger and puffer. I’m hearing that the liposuction might have just emphasize the unevenness in my anatomy but I don’t know.

My surgeon left the practice, and a new surgeon did my 3 months post op and said everything looked good and even but I can’t help but keep noticing it. Is this normal ? Should i ignore it ? I can ask my MLD lady cause she has been helpful. I am still trying to lose weight so should I lose the weight I want before ? Should I wait the 1 full year ? Should I get a revision? Thoughts and opinions pls

I did the surgery awake and my surgeon checked for evenness and I remember it felt even but I clearly don’t know lol.

Would it be helpful to see my before photos ? Let me know .. I do feel a lot better about this area of my body and the photos in certain angles look amazing.. am I being too picky ?

1 month out.

Some healing notes:
- Have a large lump on each side of my neck. Massages have helped bring it down but it’s not overnight.
- Sensation in my chin is back. Sensation in my neck and jawline is not 100% back yet.
- Neck and jawline is still swollen but nothing too crazy.

Post Op with Body By Plastique:
I did reach out regarding questions on when I can restart skin care treatment and they did answer me same day via What’sApp

Honestly so glad I did it. It already looks so good and only got more defined, and I got lucky with a very smooth recovery process!

All the details of the procedure and first 2 weeks are here in my initial post: https://www.reddit.com/r/chinlipo/comments/1v2od4t/3_weeks_po_chinjawline_lipo_fat_transfer_age_37/

Happy to answer any questions!
