Introduction

Introduction to Male Submental Liposuction (Chin Liposuction)

One of the most common markers of attractiveness in men is a sculpted, well-defined jawline. However, fullness beneath the chin can be difficult to combat with dieting and exercise alone, as it is often due to genetics or the natural aging process. When performed with precision and artistry by double-board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Rajendra R. Shah in Chicago, submental liposuction can restore a taut, youthful profile, enhancing your confidence and peace of mind.

What Is Male Submental Liposuction?

Liposuction is a popular and effective cosmetic procedure, thanks to its ability to dramatically sculpt and reshape areas affected by stubborn fat. While many of our male patients in Chicago follow a strict diet and exercise regimen, it doesn’t always help them to achieve the lean, youthful profile they desire. Submental liposuction, also referred to as chin or neck liposuction, can improve the lower facial contours, restoring balance and natural attractiveness.

Who Are the Best Candidates For Male Submental Liposuction?

Ideal candidates for submental liposuction in Chicago may be frustrated by fat buildup beneath the chin and may not have been able to achieve their desired contouring results through dieting and gym workouts. As with any cosmetic procedure, it is critical that patients pursuing submental liposuction are in good health, don’t smoke, and have realistic expectations for their results. Additionally, it is important for patients to recognize that submental liposuction is not a weight loss procedure. Good candidates are at a healthy, stable weight and have a fair degree of skin elasticity present. Dr. Shah will provide a thorough consultation to ensure the surgery is safe, rewarding, and effective for you.

What Are the Benefits of Male Submental Liposuction?

Submental liposuction can combat a double chin, ending the hold that genetics and aging have over your appearance. Benefits of the procedure include:

  • Slims and streamlines the profile
  • Permanently removes stubborn, excess fat cells from beneath the chin
  • Enhances definition and balance
  • Sharpens a lax jawline
  • Boosts confidence
  • Lasting, natural-looking results
  • Minimal scarring or downtime

What’s the First Step?

To get started along your journey toward a sharper jawline and a more youthful-looking profile with submental liposuction, you will sit down with Dr. Shah and his knowledgeable team for a private consultation. This first visit will entail a frank discussion of your goals, a response to all your questions and concerns, and an in-depth physical and medical assessment. Dr. Shah will go over the risks, benefits, recovery time, costs, and potential outcomes of submental liposuction, ensuring your expectations are grounded and realistic. Once your candidacy has been confirmed, we will book your treatment date and provide you with individualized instructions on how to best prepare for your surgery.

What to Expect on the Day of Male Submental Liposuction Surgery

On the day of your procedure, we will escort you to one of our comfortable treatment rooms and briefly go over your surgical plan one last time. The entire submental liposuction process usually takes about one hour. We will use local anesthesia to numb the treatment area and place you under light sedation, allowing you to relax and experience a seamless, painless aesthetic journey.

Dr. Shah will create tiny incisions beneath the chin, using a slender tube called a cannula to suction out excess fat and create a more sculpted, refined jawline. Dr. Shah takes great pains to ensure that your results are balanced, natural-looking, and symmetrical. Once all changes have been completed, your incisions will be closed with fine sutures, and you will be fitted with a compression garment to support your healing process.

Male Submental Liposuction Recovery

Common side effects after submental liposuction in Chicago include swelling, bruising, and tenderness in the targeted areas. These side effects typically fade within a few days and are not significant enough to prevent patients from quickly resuming their normal schedules. Dr. Shah will instruct you to wait 2 to 3 weeks before resuming your normal workout schedule. Swelling will gradually resolve over time, with your final results emerging within a month or two. To achieve your best outcome, make sure to follow Dr. Shah’s instructions carefully and get plenty of rest.
