Can liposuction remove a double chin?
Yes! Double chin liposuction offers a solution for reducing stubborn fat from the face and neck with proven and effective results. The team at ICCM with clinics in both Sydney and Campbelltown, can help patients increase self-confidence by removing excess fat cells from the chin area and lower face.
The procedure is minimally invasive and requires only a small incision to remove any unwanted fat, which is often resistant to diet and exercise. Patients can book a consultation with one of our cosmetic doctors to discuss if this procedure is well-suited to their needs.
How long does double chin lipo take to heal?
Double chin liposuction does not take long to heal; however, this timeframe will vary for each patient. You can expect to experience swelling and inflammation, however, this should subside within a few days.

What are the benefits of double chin lipo?
The primary benefits of double chin liposuction stem from the fact that this procedure is both safe and effective. It is a very popular option for many patients due to the following reasons:
- Only mild sedation is required, avoiding the use of general anaesthesia
- There will be minimal downtime and recovery
- You can leave the clinic on the same day as the procedure
- There will be minimal scarring
- You will see long-lasting results
- An easy way to tone and reshape the face while removing excess fat
- Increased self-confidence
The primary goals of this procedure are visual and mental improvements for the patient. The double chin can cause a lack of self-confidence, and this procedure removes that obstacle to boost how positive you feel in front of the mirror.
What is the process for double chin liposuction?
As part of ICCM’s wide range of cosmetic medical procedures, we target the double chin with a tumescent liposculpture. This surgical technique will permanently remove fat cells, creating a smooth, more youthful contour. This option is less invasive, with no requirement for general anaesthetic.
The process involves local anaesthesia injected into the double chin, mixed with tumescent fluid. The excess fat is then removed with a small cannula to create a more desirable look.
Why choose double chin tumescent liposculpture
While being less invasive, double chin liposculpture allows our doctors to target and remove specific fat cells with minimal downtime and bruising. This form of liposuction offers a precise fat-removing method that:
- Lessens the risk of removing too much or too little fat
- Minimises the chances of scarring
- Offers lower recovery times
- Requires only a local anaesthetic
- Encourages increased skin tightening as it stimulates collagen production

Frequently Asked Questions
We will create your ideal look by removing fat layers with a small cannula. This method allows us to target troublesome areas of your face and neck that are unaffected by exercise and a healthy diet.
This procedure is very safe, especially in the experienced hands of the team at ICCM, who perform this treatment regularly. Choosing an experienced cosmetic doctor makes your procedure much safer, and our skilled and experienced team will ensure a result that provides a great look and high levels of safety.
The results technically last forever as the fat cells removed will not return; however, weight gain after treatment can mean that a new chin may form. The fat pocket in this area is small, however, so it is unlikely that our patients will develop a new double chin.
No, double chin liposuction is not a treatment method for weight loss. This cosmetic treatment exists to help areas that are hard to target with exercise. An active, healthy lifestyle is still required for weight loss, with this treatment offering a method of contouring and toning specific areas of the body.
Risks and complications of cosmetic surgery
These risks, while concerning, are generally rare and can be mitigated through careful planning, following pre- and post-operative care instructions, and working with qualified and experienced medical practitioners, like those at ICCM. But it can still be beneficial to understand potential risks that can occur, so you can discuss these risks before proceeding with any treatment.
Scarring
Scarring is a common risk with any surgery that involves making incisions in the skin. While practitioners take care to place incisions in discreet areas and close them carefully to minimise scars, the body’s healing process varies from person to person. Some individuals may develop thicker, more noticeable scars, known as hypertrophic scars or keloids, which can be difficult to treat and may require additional procedures.
Bruising and Swelling
Bruising and swelling are common side effects of surgery as the body responds to tissue trauma. While these symptoms typically subside within a few weeks, severe bruising can cause discomfort and prolong recovery. In some cases, significant swelling might indicate underlying issues such as fluid accumulation or infection, requiring further medical attention.
Bleeding
Bleeding during surgery is controlled by the surgical team, but there is always a risk of excessive bleeding either during the procedure or postoperatively. This can lead to complications like hematomas, where blood pools under the skin, potentially requiring surgical drainage. Severe bleeding can also lead to shock, which is a medical emergency.
Infection
Infection is a risk whenever the skin is broken, as it provides a pathway for bacteria to enter the body. Surgical sites are particularly vulnerable, especially if the wound care instructions are not followed closely. Infections can range from minor skin infections to more serious, deep-tissue infections that might require antibiotics, drainage, or even additional surgery to resolve.
Pain
Pain is an expected part of recovery from any surgery, but its intensity and duration can vary. While most pain can be managed with prescribed medications, some patients may experience prolonged or severe pain, which could indicate complications such as nerve damage or infection. Chronic pain is a less common, but more serious, concern that might persist long after the typical recovery period.
Undesirable Cosmetic Outcome
An undesirable cosmetic outcome occurs when the results of the surgery do not meet the patient’s expectations, or the aesthetic goals outlined before the procedure. This could be due to asymmetry, unnatural appearance, or a failure to achieve the desired contour or shape. In some cases, additional procedures, known as revision surgeries, may be needed to correct these issues.
Nerve Damage
Nerve damage is a risk in many cosmetic procedures, especially those that involve cutting near nerves. This can lead to numbness, tingling, or even loss of sensation in the affected area. While some nerve damage may be temporary and improve over time, permanent nerve injury can result in lasting changes in sensation or function.
Seroma
A seroma is a pocket of clear fluid that can build up under the skin after surgery. It often occurs when the surgical area is not fully drained, leading to swelling and discomfort. Seromas are usually treated by draining the fluid with a needle, but if left untreated, they can increase the risk of infection or contribute to poor wound healing.
Anaesthetic Complications
Anaesthetic complications can arise from both general and local anaesthesia. These risks include allergic reactions, respiratory issues, and, in rare cases, more severe reactions such as malignant hyperthermia. Patients with pre-existing health conditions or those undergoing lengthy procedures are at a higher risk. Complications can range from temporary disorientation or nausea to more serious outcomes like heart attack or stroke.
Death
Death is the most severe and rare risk associated with cosmetic surgery. It can result from complications related to anaesthesia, excessive bleeding, severe infection, or an adverse reaction during the procedure. While the overall risk is low, it underscores the importance of a thorough preoperative assessment and choosing an experienced, qualified medical practitioner to minimise risks.
