Facts About Chin Liposuction

By Fred Turman

Cosmectic surgery is fast becoming the most popular method to help people acheive their desired level of beauty. Many women and beleive it or not a significant amount of men are now getting these procedures done as well. Cosmetic surgery is a procedure that is being done by women of all ages and a growing number of men who want to look their absolute best. Among the many cosmetic procedures being performed chin liposuction is one of the simplest cosmetic procedures that you can have done.

When seeking to have chin liposuction done you need to make sure that the plastic surgeon that you have chosen is board certified. Chin liposuction is a way that many have decided to remove the pocket of fat that is located under the chin and jawline. Chin liposuction can eliminate excess fat or sagging skin of the upper neck to create a sleek defined attractive jawline. Most people workout endlessly trying to decrease that fat pocket under the chin so that they can have that chiseled look that comes with good bone structure. A method that is being used to help many people acheive this desired look is the tumescent technique. This is a method that requires a small incision under the chin located where it is almost undetected.

The tumescent technique pumps a saline solution below the skin in the area to be suctioned. This solution is a salt saline and a local anestetic is used to numb the area that is being suctioned, and the fat deposits are removed through small tubes called microcannulas. This procedure can be performed with other asthetic procedures. Because of the relatively safe method of removing fat under the chin, the tumescent is becoming a highly pouplar method; however no surgery is without risk and one should always make sure the cosmetic surgeon is licensed and board certified.

When the patient is undergoing this procedure they are given a local anesthetic, when the procedure is completed a plastic wrap is given to put around the face for a few days. There is minimal bruising, recovery is relatively quick and the patient should be ready to resume regular duties within a few days. - 16083
