Risks? I either die or live and look pretty. It’s a win-win.
You can live regardless of your looks.
I am a 40yo female. I was very swollen for the first month, mostly on my left side. After the 5th week i started to see the swelling going down, and my skin feels tight and a bit sore. Then at around 6th week I started having breakout like pimples underneath my jawline. Now, that I am 3mths post op, my pimples has lessen, and drying up, and I am starting to see my jawline more define. I get a lot of compliments from friends n families and they are impressed with my result. I am still recovering, this experience was worth it for me. I hope u get the result you are looking for. No saggy skin for me.
It's been 1 month since I did my chin lipo and it still swollen and it looks like I still have a double chin how long did it take you to see the difference
@@moniquepena5234 Hi hun, I was very swollen the first 6 weeks. My left side was more swollen than my right and it was very sore and uneven. I have Lymphatic massage twice a day for about 10mins each time (doing it myself). It takes about 2mths for my friends to see the difference in my face. They said i look slimmer, they didn't know I had a chin lipo. I am 3.5mths now and I can still feel the tightness around my chin and jaw area and my swelling has gone down a lot. I would say I still have about 20% swelling. I am very happy with my result. Keep massaging your chin, I know is painful, but it helps with the healing process. Wait a little longer, u will see result. Good luck :)
I had Vaser chin lipo 3 weeks ago. Unfortunately can’t see any difference yet but the opposite, my double chin is lumpy, bumpy, uneven and my left side is bigger. I hope it’s just a swelling and not some fat left behind) and overall my chin is way bigger now than before. Freaks me out.
I massage it twice a day 15 mins each time and still wearing my face garment at night. (I wore it for 10 days straight 24/10 post op. & now only at night)
However comments like this putting me at ease knowing that I still need to wait patiently hoping my surgeon did a really good & even job.
Thank you so much for your feedback here. It helps a lot 🫶🏽
@@abayaa3213 Does the lump gone? Cause i had chin lipo 11 days ago and developed lump
I had chin lipo 2 weeks ago and it still feels sore and tight. Both left and right side look lumpy at the moment and I keep thinking something is wrong. Did any of you get lumps and if so how long till it went away?
CANNOT wait for my consultation with you!! ..Nervous but excited 🥳
After reading all of the comments, I have decided to not do it. It is too risky.
Great Informative video
great info!!!
Great insight thank you!
I had chin Lipo almost 4 weeks ago, so pleased with the results!! The only thing is, the skin is still numb and I really notice this when I have a wet shave. I thought the numbness would have gone by now, it’s reduced but still noticeable.
I had chin lipo 1 month ago and i can still see my double chin 😔😔😔
@@moniquepena5234 I had vaser Lipo which take the fat away straight away. Which version of Lipo did you have?
@@garyf.3328 Does the lump gone? Cause i had chin lipo 11 days ago and developed lump
@@Ayzed96 Yes it does go, I had a large lump which hung down at first. It reduces slowly over 2 to 3 months. My chin lipo was on 16th November the lump is almost gone now. Don’t worry it will be fine. My chin looks great now so much better!!
@@garyf.3328 appreciate your response, that’s very reassuring thank you very much and enjoy your good results
that's for sure. Oral surgeons should always take a patient's high blood pressure before any surgical treatment
I had chin liposuction six weeks ago by a dermatologist who also specializes in liposuction, and I wish I could turn back the clock and not get it done. I immediately started developing hard lumps and scar tissue. My doctor said this doesn’t happen very often and in all of his years of practice, I am only the third patient who had this. I do not fault the doctor because he has a good reputation and a friend who went to him had excellent results. My neck looks completely deformed. My doctor said that this is fibrosis and there are things he can do, but I hate leaving the house. My doctor said those other two patients ended up okay but this could take awhile. He had to go in and break up some of the fibrosis, which wasn’t pleasant. Apparently, I am one of the unfortunate people who overproduce collagen immediately after liposuction. He injected cortisone and also said he will do ultrasound. I called a plastic surgeon in my desperation, and he said after a year if I was still like this, he thought a lower face lift involving the neck would fix the issue. This means I have 10.5 months of waiting. My doctor said he does think this will resolve and to not give up hope, but it’s difficult when my neck looks this bad. I am not exaggerating when I say this is hideous. I would hesitate to discourage others from getting this because most people have wonderful results immediately. The problem is that you just don’t know if you are one of the rare people who react so badly to such a procedure, like me.
Thanks for sharing your experience. Hope it gets better for you.
Sorry that happened to you :( any updates?
@@Stupidfactory9, yes, thank you for asking. I am now 4 months post liposuction. In addition to him going in manually to break up the fibrosis and injecting cortisone, I have had one more cortisone shot and two Morpheus treatments to help resolve the fibrosis. The doctor also got his ultrasound machine back, and I have had twice weekly ultrasound treatments for the last three weeks or so. I will continue to get ultrasound twice weekly until mid July. On July 19th, he is going to do PDL to get rid of the redness and also do a dot laser treatment to tighten the skin, reduce the fibrosis further, and stimulate collagen in areas of ridges. My doctor is doing everything he can, and the Morpheus, PDL, and dot laser treatments would be very expensive if someone had to pay for their own. I no longer look deformed but my neck looks like it’s older than I am because there is still some lumpiness and ridges. My doctor assures me all will be fine in the end and to remain patient. Even if this turns out okay in the end, I still wish I would have taken the money spent on lipo and just had a lower face lift that includes the neck. I would be long healed by now. I’m happy for the majority of people who get great immediate results from lipo, but if I would have known of this complication, rare though it is, I wouldn’t have done it. Getting rid of the redness with the PDL is definitely going to make this a lot less noticeable so I can’t wait for July 19th to get here. Good luck to everyone else out there who have had similar problems. I hope everyone heals fine when all is said and done.
@@marlapate6034 Is he charging you for the repair process too? I'm guessing he is but very sorry to hear you're going through this.
@@cheddershredder, no, he is not charging me, thank heavens. To date, I have had one session at the very beginning when he had to go in with a needle and break up the thick fibrosis, then subsequently a total of 3 cortisone shots, 2 Morpheus treatments, and 18 ultrasound treatments since February 28th, the date of the liposuction. The thick lumps are gone, but I have a lot of redness and ridged columns that make my neck look older than it is. He says the redness signifies healing and that time is our friend. I will see him back in about a month, and I know he has other treatments planned for me. If I had to make a guess, I would say it’s going to take another six months until I have received maximum recovery. I’m crossing my fingers that my neck will be completely better by then. Apparently, it’s extremely rare for anyone to have such a bad reaction to liposuction. I’m happy for the people who have great results, but wish I had never done it. I’m just thankful I have a doctor who is doing everything he can to help.
Thank you for the video! Do you know if liposuction can affect the voice of a singer even in the slightest way?
Do you have Doctor recommendations for this procedure in Tampa Florida?
I spent 3 grand on Kybella and didn’t see any results. It was so painful too. Now another 3 grand for lipo 😓
I hear it's left many with no feeling
I’m so glad I didn’t go with kybella…the woman who did my consultation was honest, she told me I might as well spend it on lipo, and so I saved my money. I’m going in June 6, wish me luck. I’m really glad you were still able to get what you wanted but I’m sorry you had to spend twice as much.
@@MermaidMakeshow did it go?
@@MermaidMakes yeah! any update?
@@Crgb777 I forgot to update!! So- a little over 6 months in and I couldn’t be happier with the results! The cost was $2500, so way cheaper than the kybella would have been, by about $1,000.
I can actually look at my face in the mirror which is life changing, as vain as that may seem. And because of that I’ve been getting back into makeup again!! Unfortunately double chins run in my family and no matter how much weight I lost my face would still appear chubby.
As far as any advice I have for people- keep wearing the compression garment even a bit after they tell you to take it off. It really helps to keep swelling down, which will affect how it heals.
Another piece of advice I have- even when you think the incision is closed, don’t mess with it at all for a few months. I was using a face massager and my incision dehisced, and I had to go to the ER to get it closed again! But that was my own fault 😅. I also learned that Mederma is pretty miraculous for scarring!
Do you have recommendations on surgeons in Charleston, SC?
is it okay to have masseter botox and still get chin lipo months later?
what is really great and works within 3 months for really dissolving fat and tightening the jaw line is taking a rubber little football and placing it under the neck to do three series of 20 push downs when you wake up in the morning and 20 at night. That with a couple of light dumbbells that you move around in circles with lots of water and cutting out all wheat/sugar! Thanks
Another question I have is, in the calf there are many important arteries even closer to the neck, when sucking fat from the face and neck is there any risk of touching these arteries or nerves?
Hello, I would like to know if it is true that this operation gives you a lifting result and how does this happen? Because when you remove fat volume, the logical thing is that the skin will deflate and sag, or is that not the case?
I’m 40 and I am 1 week post op I think I have cobra chin… I’m devastated truly, wish I could turn back the clock 😢
Did it get better? I'm 5 weeks post op and my left side is bigger than my right. I hope it's just swelling that gets better overtime
What’s the cost
So many negative comments..it mean it is not safe ...so dnt do thiss... Natural is best ....
can it be done if the reading is 135/90
Arent there a bunch of nerves along the jawline? Isnt there a risk of facial paralysis!!????
Yes thats why you go to a board certified plastic surgeon not a med spa
Hi Dr! Great and informative video as usual. I was wondering if it’s possible to have chin liposuction through an intraoral incision because I have keloid prone skin and some keloids along my jawline and am really worried I could get a keloid from the incision under the chin.
I have the same condition and it’s also my concern 😢
This is such a great question; hope he’s able to respond soon. I’d like to know too.
I tend to keloid but I wasn't concerned about that when I got chin lipo because the incisions are tiny, right under your chin and below your ears. Im almost 8 weeks out and my scars are normal. To help prevent keloids, the Dr. can inject the incision sites with steroids and/ or you can use silicone gel sheets.
@smileyfacewithsunglasses7613 I'm 5 weeks post op and my skin still feels slight tender and numb. When did your skin feel normal to the touch?
My left side is also bigger but I'm hoping it's just swelling! It looks kind of lopsidesnand I'm scared. And just couple lumps but hopefully it all goes away
Doctor where is your practice located?
I highly regret doing my buccal fat. in my case it took me 8 months for the results and all Im doing now is fillers trying to fix and yes it made me age
im the exact same thats why im here looking to now need my jawline sorted to balance it out. Seriusley regret buccal removal, my face look disproportionate, old and manly
Did you have all your buccal fat removed? My doctor did me just 3cc each side so the aging hopefully won’t show
@@Mstar200 I'm not sure how much he took tbh, but I'm going to get filler this weekend to re balance my face 🙃
@@user-oq6bd5oy6n that’s so annoying for u omg surgeons actually need to be careful how much they take out as each face is different
@@Mstar200 exactly ! I do hope yours works out fine you tho ❤ no women needs to go through this I tell you!
I had it 3 months ago and my neck is exactly the same.
Another risk is the surgeon hitting a nerve leaving the patient with a crooked smile. It typically resolves itself, but it can certainly happen.
That's exactly what happened to me. I had my surgery almost two weeks ago and my smile is still crooked. Everything I read online says it will most likely correct itself, so I know it's just a waiting game at this point. My doctor gave me a steroid shot to "speed up the nerve healing process," so hopefully that'll help, but idk. I'm so scared it's permanent
Wear your compresion face strap as much as you can for at least 2 weeks. I was lazy about wearing mine and the results were okay but would have been better.
I am here because one of my friends did this suction and ended up with a crooked mouth. I want to find a way for her.
I got mine done last week. I'm only 3 days post op.. every doctor is different but I notice most doctors on TH-cam they mark along the jawline and they mark the end of your cheeks and do surgery along that. My doctor she only marked below my chin and neck on the side. I still see my chubby cheeks protruding out. I'm waiting a month to see what it looks like. Right now it's just swollen and still fluid inside.
How do your results look now??
@Foxleaf it looks somewhat better than before but I still see a little bit under my chin . Maybe after 6 months, Chin fillers will help .
@@tinale967 Does the lump gone? Cause i had chin lipo 11 days ago and developed lump
@aziiz abdulrahman yes it will go away . Keep massaging it everyday for 20 mins
@@tinale967 appreciate your response, thank you very much
How much does this procedure cost with you
I got mine done with laser and liposuction. Love my results but it’s affected the way I speak as my bottom lip seems to still be asleep. I don’t know if I injured a nerve or something. I’m so worried it’s permanent?
Is it permanent? Updates plz hope you are okay
update please?
Update?
Was the effect on your speech permanent? And did it change your pronounciation or would you say it changed your voice? Would love an update, i hope you’re doing well!
i am 2 weeks post op chin lipo it looks better but i am talking very weird my upper jaw is ok but the lower jaw is liitle bit stuck its hard to smile. feels like the lower jew moved little back i dont know what do to i know that i am still heeling but it dont feel ok at all
Did it get better?
If im at 5 weeks do you think my scar is already hardened? Im about to start massaging
Does the lump gone? Cause i had chin lipo 11 days ago and developed lump
@@Ayzed96 almost of the lumps left but after a month the ones I didn’t massage turned into small really hard lumps by week 7 I’ve been massaging it hard all week and it’s getting soft and smaller again wish I started massaging sooner
@@Ayzed96 the big lumps got smaller but when I stopped massaging after a month they turned like rock hard and had to massage them hard and compress them they are less hard now
@@karenalvarado12693hi dis the lumps and hard areas go away permanently? I'm at 5 weeks and just started massaging as well and have multiple hard little balls and one big hardened area. When did it go away for you?
How long until I notice results? I’m 6 weeks post op and barely getting my massages
3 months to 6 months
Does the lump gone? Cause i had chin lipo 11 days ago and developed lump
@@Ayzed96 yes!!! I actually did the massages myself and my dr was very impressed with my results. I made sure to massage for a few minutes every time I shower, I used gua sha and also bought suction cups off Amazon that helped me get rid of the fibrosis.
I got my chin lipo and it left my skin a little saggy, I am so sad about this. I’m 5 weeks post op and don’t see much of a difference. What else can I do to enhance my results?
@Will B another surgery? It’s not noticeable but I see it a little bit
I had the same! I just did J-Plasma and it's been great! My skin is healing so well!
5 weeks is too soon to see the result. Wait 3 to 6 months for final result
You may need to do some skin tightening they have a few different non surgical options you should look into it if you’re insecure about the skin
@@Noa_Lynn I am now 3 months post op and it’s gone!! 😊😊 thank you for your recommendation though. ❤️
I had chin & neck lipo 5 weeks ago, now i have lumps all over the chin & neck but i also cannot open my mouth fully. I can only open my mouth 2cm. Anybody have the same problem?
Hi, I hope you are doing better. Have you had any improvements over time?
I have the same problem. Any updates?
I m at my second week of chin lipo ,it still sore and hard when I touch this area as well that i see a little muscle in the middle of my neck that was never there before ,and i feel it tight when I elevate my chin…, are these things will last forever 😢
Sore and hard to touch is normal based on my own experience. It will get better.
@@kywong8053 how is yours looking now? Any issues ?
@@tinale967 i can still see little double chin. Not sure will it be gone after 6 months. I am 4 months post op.
@@kywong8053 you should go back to complain. I'm 6 days post op I still see chubby cheeks . I have to wait 6 weeks and massage after 2 weeks to see if it'll go going
@@tinale967 not complaining because it is much better than before. It can be loose skin there. If you are young then result will be good. If you are old, sure have some loose skin.
I want to get this done but some people say they get saggy skin after and look older is this true ?
I heard that the fat returns.
I have a co-worker who did it but his skin got saggy now ,he looks much more older now
@@ssentaayimahadi5537I heard that from many people as well.
You will have a little sagging. I did. It’s not noticeable but I can see it , my jaw and my chin looks great, very sharp and natural, but yes, I have a little bit of loose skin where my fat once was 🥲
Did you have j plasma or a skin tightening treatment after the Lipo? This is my main concern.m too because I’m older and for sure will have some sagging when I get this done.
Gosh... Why is he so handsome to me ☺️. Awwe. I wanna cuddle him!
Miss mam?? 🤨😳
@@luden13 look at him!
Where are you located??
In Los Angeles
Um now I’m scared haha
I had chin lipo almost 5 weeks ago and 3 days after my surgery I developed awful anxiety attacks which I still have. Could it because of the surgery another thing I did not drain not one bit after I went home. I’m scared it might be something serious from the surgery. Can you pleas guide me on what it could be Doctor? 🙏
How are you now? Maybe the anxiety attacks were from the anesthesia or did they give you pain medication? That can trigger anxiety as well.
I had lipo two weeks ago and in the tenth day I got an anxiety attack. I think it’s our body telling us it is going through trauma.
I'm just 26 years old. I have double this problem 😭😭😭😭😭
My face look like big
Not too late to start working out mate
I look worse, I am depressed and in dispare and the flap of skin that hungs down has only changed places..and it is longer flap than before, plus 2 more small flaps of skin...
And i wore the pressuee garment and my bite is off and my lower lip on the left side is hanging I have a goofy smile and I cannot sing now as the right side of the lip is not working and i have to be careful eating not to chew my lip off
I did not have any fat only a flap...and now I am screwed up horrible
It was done on Sept 22 2023 and it is oct 9 23, is there anything I can do, I have rubbed the scar and there is a hard knott on the long clavical on both sides, and tiny dots on my chin
Have you had any improvements? Hope you are well.
OMG! Please update!
Where are you Dr sagar?
Los Angeles
why the fuck is it so expensive in Canada and USA? People you can literally fly to Europe and do it there!!!
My bottom jaw was set to far off, i have a lisp now, my entrie attitude ib life has been broken, i do not go out for 31 days, i hate my look now, I was good looking and spoke fluently, now my lip drags and I used to love to smile and talk and sing, now i look goofy...i want to sue this doctor
What about when u miss your fat
I hope to put it there again
😅😅😅😅😅
You can, you can fat graft to cheeks and chin area. Just think about bbl , they transfer fat to your butt, it’s the same thing with your face. Makes you look younger.
But why not advising for a diet first. I don’t understand
I have always had a small figure, I’m a size 0, but I have a double chin and just a round face. Not everyone needs to lose weight
I'm 72 kg bro. No more weight loss is required.
Ugh! I want chin lipo so badly but I’m terrified. I was able to get lasik eye surgery but idk about this 🥹
Same ... Im afraid
same! ive heard horror stories of being left with lumps, ugly scars, 'holes' and saggy skin. It doesnt seem extremely invasive but im worried to be left with more physical issues that I will have to spend more money on down the line.
