Liposuction Surgery (Lipoplasty) Before and After Pictures by Michelle Hardaway, MD

Every surgeon uses different liposuction techniques to get rid of body fat permanently. Power assisted liposuction (PAL) is one of the most innovative fat removal procedures available in the United States and is often chosen by board-certified cosmetic and plastic surgeons to remove large volumes of body fat with ease. The procedure is less traumatic than traditional liposuction procedures, and offers a number of body contouring benefits.

Excess fat and skin under the chin and around the jawline can add years to your appearance and make you appear much heavier than you already are. Many people who have a “double chin” find that losing weight with diet and exercise doesn’t resolve the problem. The extra fat accumulated in this area could be a result of genetics so the only answer really is plastic surgery. Many plastic surgeons offer facial liposuction procedures to get rid of the double chin, but there are now a variety of techniques that can help to not only get rid of the extra fat but also create a youthful and sculpted appearance.
