What is Chin & Neck Liposuction?

Chin and neck liposuction, or submental liposuction, is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that removes localized fat deposits from the neck and jawline. This procedure can improve the neck contour for a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance.

The procedure is performed using a very small cannula inserted under the skin, with a unique laser fiber inside the tube delivering laser energy directly beneath the skin. The precise laser liposuction energy improves the quality of patients’ skin while simultaneously disrupting and eliminating fat cells in selected areas of the face, including under the chin, neck, and lower face.

The combination of fat melting, fat removal, and skin tightening produces amazing results that can be both subtle and dramatic, depending on the needs of the patient.

How to Begin Your Chin & Neck Liposuction Journey

Your chin and neck liposuction journey entails several key steps, where our team supports you the entire way through. The beginning of the journey will look like the following:

  1. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Baldenhofer at our office in Manhattan, Long Island (Huntington and Massapequa), and the Tri-State Area
  2. Review your medical history and aesthetic goals for your chin and neck
  3. Go over the procedure in detail to establish expectations
  4. Get a comprehensive evaluation of your chin, neck, skin quality, and the surrounding areas so that Dr. Baldenhofer can determine your candidacy.
  5. Build a treatment plan with Dr. Baldenhofer that includes the procedures you get alongside the cost, pre-operative instructions, and recovery steps.

What to Expect on the Day of Chin & Neck Liposuction Surgery

On the day of your procedure, you can expect a warm welcome into our office and the opportunity to ask any questions or raise concerns you may have. We strive to make the experience as comfortable and supportive as possible.

When you are ready to begin the procedure, you will be given local anesthesia to ensure the procedure is completely painless. Dr. Baldenhofer will make discreet, strategic incisions under the chin and behind the earlobes, where he will insert a cannula to suction out fat and sculpt your neck to achieve your desired contours.

Once he has removed the excess fat, he will carefully close the incisions with sutures to complete the procedure.

Combining My Chin & Neck Liposuction with Other Procedures

Many of our New York patients combine their chin and neck liposuction with another procedure to enhance their results in the neck and chin, address other aesthetic concerns, and eliminate the need for multiple recovery periods.

While the liposuction removes excess fat, the neck lift helps tighten the muscles and trim loose skin for a more dramatic, structural change.

Chin & Neck Liposuction Recovery

Your Guide to Post-Chin & Neck Liposuction Care

Patients may experience mild bruising and swelling and will be required to wear a compression garment to aid healing and support the treated areas. Patients will be able to return to normal activities within a day or two. However, you should avoid strenuous exercise and activities that involve sweating for at least a couple of weeks to avoid straining your neck and interfering with the healing process.

Patients are also prescribed pain medication to help alleviate the discomfort from the swelling and incisions. You will need to attend several appointments after your surgery to have your sutures removed and your healing monitored, so you should stay in the Manhattan, Long Island, or Massapequa area and wait until Dr. Baldenhofer approves your travel.

How Much Does Chin & Neck Liposuction Cost in New York?

The cost of chin and neck liposuction in Manhattan, Long Island, and the Tri-State Area varies based on several patient-specific factors. Each procedure is tailored to the patient’s unique goals and anatomy, resulting in a one-of-a-kind price.
