This is because skin elasticity is a major factor which determines the success of the surgery. The doctor usually checks beforehand if the patient s skin is elastic enough to contract after the excess fat is removed. If the skin does not contract then your skin will not be smooth after the surgery. Check beforehand the elasticity of your skin to avoid disproportionate contours after surgery.

Chin liposuction is also known by the name of Submental liposuction. The procedure is meant to remove the excess fat that has formed below the chin and sometimes in the neck and jowls.

It is true that chin liposuction is not very invasive. Tumescent local anesthesia (TLA) is used for the surgery. With the assistance of the surgical staff, a TLA solution is prepared when you go for the surgery. This solution contains 1-2% concentration of Lidocaine and this is present along with saline. A minute canula is inserted in the position where you want the chin reduction and the fat is sucked out through it. Don t opt for chin reduction surgery at once and try other measures before.
