Double Chin Surgery

Double chin surgery — like a chin tuck, neck lift, or liposuction — can help improve the shape of your jawline, remove extra fat, and make your face look slimmer and more youthful. These procedures can smooth and tighten the area under your chin. However, like any surgery, they have some risks. It’s important to talk to your doctor or a plastic surgeon to find out if this option is right for you.

What is Double Chin Surgery?

Double chin surgery helps remove extra fat and loose skin from your chin and neck area. A plastic surgeon may use different types of surgery depending on your needs:

  • Chin Liposuction: Removes fat from under the skin using suction.

  • Chin Tuck (Submentoplasty): Tightens the skin and removes fat from the chin and upper neck.

  • Neck Lift: A more detailed procedure that removes loose skin and tightens muscles in the entire neck and chin area.

  • Kybella® Injections: A non-surgical option that breaks down fat using an injectable medicine, best for mild fat and no loose skin.

Why Do People Choose These Surgeries?

As we age or lose weight, the skin around our chin and neck can sag or look wrinkled. Some people are also naturally more likely to have a double chin.

These surgeries can:

  • Remove a double chin.

  • Make you look slimmer or younger.

  • Reduce wrinkles.

  • Tighten sagging skin.

What Happens Before Double Chin Surgery?

Before the surgery, you’ll have a consultation with a plastic surgeon to:

  • Talk about your goals and what results you’re expecting.

  • Share your medical history, including any conditions, allergies, or past surgeries.

  • List any medications, supplements, or over-the-counter drugs you take.

  • Discuss your use of alcohol, tobacco, or drugs.

The surgeon will also:

  • Examine and measure your face and neck.

  • Mark the treatment area.

  • Take photos for reference.

  • Explain your surgical options and give suggestions.

  • Talk to you about anesthesia and the risks involved.

If you’re a good candidate and decide to move forward, you’ll sign a consent form giving permission for the surgery and confirming you understand the risks and benefits.

You may also need to:

  • Get a blood test or a physical exam.

  • Stop smoking.

  • Avoid certain medications (like aspirin, NSAIDs, or herbal supplements).

What Happens During Double Chin Surgery?

The surgery usually takes place in a clinic, surgical center, or hospital. It lasts about 45 minutes to a few hours, depending on the procedure.

During the surgery, the medical team will:

  • Give you a surgical gown.

  • Position you on the table.

  • Administer anesthesia to keep you comfortable.

  • Clean the area and mark it again if needed.

  • Make small cuts (incisions), usually near your ear or under the chin.

  • Remove or reshape fat using liposuction.

  • Tighten muscles and remove any loose skin.

  • Close the incisions with stitches or skin glue.

  • Apply bandages or a chin strap for support.

What Happens After the Surgery?

Most people go home the same day. You’ll need someone to drive you and stay with you overnight.

You may have a small drain tube placed near the incision to remove fluid and reduce swelling.

Your recovery instructions may include:

  • Avoid using ice near the surgical area.

  • Take care of the drains and change bandages as advised.

  • Keep your head elevated (even while sleeping).

  • Limit neck movement—don’t pull clothes over your head or turn suddenly.

  • Stay out of the sun.

  • Take prescribed medications to manage pain and prevent infection.

  • Watch for any unusual swelling, pain, or bleeding and report it to your doctor.

What Are the Risks of Double Chin Removal Surgery?

Double chin or neck contouring surgeries are generally safe, but like any surgery, they carry some risks. These may include:

  • Facial asymmetry (both sides may not look the same)

  • Bleeding or blood clots

  • Reactions to anesthesia (like nausea, vomiting, or slow recovery)

  • Nerve damage, which may cause numbness or weakness

  • Injury to blood vessels, muscles, or nearby organs

  • Hair loss near the incision area

  • Hematoma (a build-up of blood under the skin that may need draining)

  • Slow or poor healing of the incision

  • Infection

  • Lingering pain or swelling

  • Heart or lung complications (rare but possible)

  • Unwanted results, which may require a second surgery

  • Scarring or skin changes (ripples, discoloration, or irregular texture)

Always consult a board-certified plastic surgeon and discuss your concerns and expectations to reduce risks.
