A double chin can be had by anyone—even people who aren’t overweight. Even the fittest of men and women can have excess fat under their chins. This is because genetics can make it so that a person stores more fat in that area than other parts of the body. Though diet and exercise can help an overweight person reduce fat under the chin and around the neck, people of ideal weight must sometimes turn to liposuction to resolve this cosmetic problem.
As you may know, muscles can be exercised, fat cannot. Although chin exercises can tone the muscles in and around the area of the chin, the fat will remain. Chin straps worn at night during sleep are also ineffective in eliminating fat. For this reason, chin liposuction is often times the only way to eliminate excess fat from under the chin.
It used to be that the most effective options for reducing a double chin were a chin tuck or a facelift. But now chin liposuction is the preferred method of treatment for eliminating excess fat from the area of the chin. With fewer side effects and quick recovery, more patients are opting to have this cosmetic procedure.
Chin liposuction is very popular these days and commonly requested of patients seeking to eliminate the appearance of a double chin. There are several ways to carry out chin liposuction. One popular method is tumescent liposuction. This procedure uses a solution of local anesthic to numb the chin and break up the fat. This makes suctioning the fat from the area a lot easier. Because the solution numbs the area of treatment, patients are able to remain awake as the procedure is carried out.
Because the skin incisions made during a chin liposuction procedure are very small, many patients prefer this method of fat removal over a chin tuck. With the many advancements made over the years in the field of liposuction, the small instruments used during the procedure require very tiny incisions for insertion under the skin. The tubes used to suction fat from the chin are no larger than the lead of a pencil. These tiny incisions are also easily hidden where they are less noticeable.
Diet and exercise can be very effective in reducing a double chin. But if your double chin is not due to being overweight, then chin liposuction can be an excellent alternative.
