Chin Lift. Prices, Reviews, Ratings
General information
Lifting is relevant for patients who have lost weight dramatically. Chin lift also helps those who have never had problems with their body weight. The cause of the appearance of a double chin is considered to be the formation of a skin fold in the lower part of the jaw.
Procedure
Preparation
Before the procedure, the doctor examines the patient, studies his medical history and selects a method for correcting the chin.
Correction becomes possible only after the patient has undergone the necessary tests (ECG, blood and urine tests, others at the discretion of the doctor). Based on their results, the plastic surgeon decides whether this operation can be performed in a particular case.
Chin lift procedure
To remove defects of the chin or its second "tier" use:
- local lifting - pumping out excess fat using punctures in the skin;
- surgical lifting - lifting the lower third of the face, circular tightening of the skin around the chin;
- classical lifting - standard tightening of the skin on the chin using excision of excess skin.
Recently, lifting with mesothreads has become especially popular. The threads are made of natural materials (mainly polydioxanone) and coated with a special acid. They are inserted under the patient's skin using a thin needle and smooth out the necessary part of the chin, correcting its contour. This type of lifting helps to get rid of a double chin, rejuvenates the skin and makes it firm and elastic. Complete absorption of the threads occurs on average in 240 days. After that, the thread effect maintains the chin in shape for about 1.5-2 years. This procedure is painless.
Rehabilitation period
After the operation, the patient should:
- avoid intense facial expressions;
- be sure to wear an elastic bandage as recommended by the doctor;
- perform other procedures as prescribed by the specialist.
For a speedy recovery, the plastic surgeon can apply:
- ozone therapy;
- meso- or microcurrent therapy;
- oxygen procedures;
- lymphatic drainage.
The procedure can be combined with other facial corrections. In general cases, these are:
- laser skin resurfacing;
- facial contouring.
Only a plastic surgeon can give advice on additional facial correction.

- violation of the contour of the face;
- the appearance of depressions, pits or tubercles;
- necrosis of the skin.
With the right approach to the operation and the professionalism of the doctor, compaction, contraction and unevenness on the skin of the face will not arise. However, in some cases they can be felt. Such irregularities can be eliminated or masked if the patient's surface layer of fat cells is not damaged. Otherwise, you will face another cosmetic problem.
