Submental Liposuction

Submental liposuction, also known as chin liposuction, is a procedure designed to remove excess fat from the chin and neck to create a more defined jawline and facial profile. Even in individuals with a healthy body weight, fat in the submental area can persist due to genetics or aging. This treatment is popular among patients in Salt Lake City, Utah seeking sharper facial contours.

Submental liposuction may help improve:

  • Excess fat beneath the chin
  • A soft or poorly defined jawline
  • Fullness in the neck area
  • Overall facial balance and profile

The procedure typically takes less than one hour and may be performed under local or general anesthesia. During your consultation, Dr. Vincent will determine if submental liposuction is the right option for your goals.

Submental Liposuction FAQs

  • The neck is numbed with local anesthetic and the area is infiltrated (filled) with saline using an approach called the tumescence technique. This technique helps “lift” the skin off of the underlying tissue so that the liposuction cannula can reach all areas of the neck and chin. Very small incisions (5 mm or less than a half of an inch) are made just under the chin and under the ears. The thin liposuction cannula is inserted in these areas and uses high-frequency oscillations to liquefy the fat and then suck it out through something like a vacuum. The surgeon’s goal is to sculpt the fat in this area, not to remove it all. If the cheeks need to have fat removed from them, additional small incisions may be needed.

Treatment overview

At Vincent Surgical Arts, several plastic and reconstructive surgeons offer face lift surgery. The most common technique used involves an SMAS face lift (a submuscular aponeurotic system face lift). This tightens up the underlying muscular layer as well as the skin, providing an increase in tone that is longer lasting.
