Sculpt and Refine with Precision Liposuction in Pasadena

A well-defined neck and jawline can dramatically enhance overall facial balance. However, stubborn fat beneath the chin—often referred to as a “double chin”—does not always respond to diet and exercise. At Athēnix Advanced Plastic Surgery in Pasadena, our board-certified surgeons use advanced liposuction techniques to precisely contour the neck and under-chin area. The result is a slimmer, more sculpted profile that restores confidence and facial harmony.

What Is Neck & Submental Liposuction?

Neck and submental liposuction is a minimally invasive surgical procedure designed to remove excess fat deposits under the chin and along the neck. Using tiny incisions and a fine cannula, our surgeons carefully sculpt the area, enhancing definition while preserving natural contours.

This procedure is often chosen to:

Eliminate the appearance of a double chin
Improve jawline sharpness and definition
Restore balance between the face and neck
Enhance youthful proportions without the need for more invasive surgery

Benefits of Neck & Submental Liposuction

Patients at Athēnix Pasadena choose this procedure for its many advantages:

Precise fat removal for a more defined jawline
Minimally invasive with small, discreet incisions
Short recovery time compared to larger surgeries
Long-lasting results with stable weight
Can be combined with a facelift, neck lift, or chin implant for enhanced outcomes
Boosts self-confidence with subtle yet impactful refinement

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be a strong candidate for neck and submental liposuction in Pasadena if you:

Have excess fat beneath the chin or along the neck that resists diet and exercise
Desire a sharper, more youthful jawline without major surgery
Have good skin elasticity to allow smooth redraping after fat removal
Are in good overall health and a non-smoker
Have realistic expectations about results and recovery

During your consultation at Athēnix Pasadena, your surgeon will assess your anatomy and goals to determine if liposuction alone will deliver your best results.

What to Expect During Surgery

Neck and submental liposuction is performed in our AAAHC-accredited Pasadena facility under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on your needs.

Incisions: Tiny, well-hidden incisions are placed beneath the chin or behind the ears.
Fat Removal: A fine cannula is used to gently suction excess fat deposits.
Shaping: The surgeon sculpts the area for a smooth, natural transition between the jawline and neck.

The procedure typically takes one to two hours, and most patients return home the same day.

Recovery and Results

Recovery from neck and submental liposuction is generally quick and straightforward:

Mild swelling and bruising are common during the first week.
A compression garment may be recommended to support healing and enhance results.
Most patients return to work and light activities within 5–7 days.
Final results become visible within several weeks as swelling resolves, revealing a slimmer, more defined profile.

With proper care and weight stability, results are long-lasting and continue to enhance your overall appearance for years to come.
