Visual attractiveness is important in modern world. Thus, many patients seek services of cosmetic surgery centres that provide facial contour shaping, including chin liposuction. This is mainstream procedure, that helps remove excess fat from chin and cheeks, and reconstructs facial skin turgor and texture.
Double chin is a widespread phenomenon among men and women regardless of age. If this issue disturbs the patient, it can usually be easily removed by the means of chin liposuction, given it is not too grave and does not require excess skin removal.
Another option is mentoplasty, which is suitable for all age groups, and involves more invasive correction of chin with application of skin reconstruction and chin implant. This is a relatively simple cosmetic surgery procedure, which provides astonishing results, reshaping face geometry and incresing atractiveness. This option is widely used by patients suffering from skewed chin due to trauma or congenial features.
Before the procedure a thorough examination takes place, as surgeon assesses manipulation zone and nature, and excludes any contraindications. Chin liposuction takes place under local anaesthesia and typically lasts 30-60 minutes. Into chin area a mini-cannule is inserted through an incision no larger than 3mm. Then this cannula is used to carefully evacuate excess fat tissue. After this, stitches are placed, which are removed in three days.
This is a painless and safe manipulation with a significantly short recovery period – just in a week rehabilitation is over and the patinets returns to normal life.
Rehabilitation is a complex of interventions an rules directed at acceleration of recovery, avoidance of complications and reduction of post-operative stress phenomena, like haematomas and swelling. Typically recovery takes up to a week, though final results of surgery become visible over the course of a month or two, as residual fat debris are removed and skin tension is returned to normal.
