Chin liposuction, also called submental liposuction, removes stubborn fat beneath the chin to sharpen the jawline and profile. Through two or three tiny incisions, a surgeon passes a thin cannula under the skin to suction fat and contour the area. It is usually done under local anaesthetic with light sedation and takes about 45 to 90 minutes.
Good candidates have a defined pocket of submental fat and reasonably firm skin, because liposuction removes volume but does not tighten laxity. If the fat is modest and you would rather avoid surgery, an injectable treatment such as Belkyra dissolves fat under the chin over several sessions instead of one procedure. Most people are back at a desk job within about three days, and the final contour appears once swelling settles over several weeks. Cost and results vary by patient and surgeon, so a consultation is the right next step, and Beautifi can help you compare qualified providers and financing options.
Also called submental liposuction, it removes a portion of fat under the chin/upper neck through pin-sized incisions using a thin cannula to refine the neck–jaw angle. It’s a one-time, minimally invasive contouring procedure.
To reduce a “double chin,” sharpen the jawline, and balance facial proportions when weight loss hasn’t changed the area. It can be paired with skin-tightening or a neck lift if laxity is significant.
Adults with persistent fullness under the chin, good skin elasticity, and a stable weight. Smokers or those with bleeding disorders may need special clearance; significant laxity may call for combined procedures.
After tumescent local anesthesia, your provider makes tiny access points, loosens fat with the cannula, and suctions it away in thin layers for even contour. A compression strap supports the area during early healing.
See Quick Facts for timing. What affects it: the amount of fat, whether the jawline is included, and technique (traditional, power-assisted, laser-assisted).
You’ll notice debulking once swelling settles—often 2–4 weeks, with refinement through 3–6 months as tissues contract.
Expect swelling, bruising, and temporary numbness. Most people resume desk work in 1–3 days; keep the compression garment on as directed and sleep with your head elevated for the first week to reduce swelling.
If skin quality is good, mild contraction usually occurs as swelling resolves. If laxity is moderate to marked, your provider may recommend adding radiofrequency tightening or a neck lift for best definition.
Fat cells removed don’t regrow; maintaining a steady weight helps the outcome last. Ageing and skin elasticity continue to evolve naturally.
Common: swelling, bruising, firmness, temporary numbness. Less common: contour irregularities, asymmetry, infection, hematoma, or nerve irritation. Following after-care and choosing an experienced provider reduce risks.
Fees vary by clinic, location, and add-ons. Many quotes fall around $2,500–$6,500+ CAD; you’ll get an exact plan and price at consultation.
