Double Chin Liposuction

At our clinic in Cairo, the appearance of the double chin and neck fat is one of the most common complaints we often see from both men and women. Even though there are some non-surgical options now widely available yet liposuction is the the best option available to the time to get rid of the fat, tighten the skin and define the jawline.

Who’s a good candidate for chin liposuction

Patients suffering from excess neck fat yet retaining good skin elasticity as the skin will redrape naturally after the procedure. It’s always good to know that double chin and neck fat are not always due to weight gain but most of the times it runs in the families as a hereditary trait so liposuction is usually the only option.

Patient should be healthy and fit with no debilitating illness at the time of the procedure.

Also liposuction is a relatively safe cosmetic procedure with an extremely rare side-effects and complications. However other modalities like fat dissolving injectables or HIFU machine although they offer no down time yet you need many sessions sometimes more than 20 to see any mild improvement.
