Chin Liposuction Recovery Photos
View male and female recovery photos after chin lipo.
Chin liposuction is a simple procedure that could be done under local anesthesia.
The recovery is much shorter compared to more invasive procedures.
The swelling and bruising is somehow limited, and few medications could be taken to help with the bruising.
As for any procedure, this could vary between different individuals.
Liposuction of the chin and neck has really no down time.
Most patients have liposuction of the neck (with or without the laser) under local anesthesia. They walk in, have the procedure, and drive themselves home.
They can return to work immediately although there might be some explaining to do in that there is a pressure garment over the treated area and possible some bruising.
Recovery from chin liposuction is quick with mild bruising and exercise restriction for 1 week. Many men will have the procedure in the winter to use turtlenecks or scarves but many men will also grow a beard to hide the bruising.
Other things you can do to reduce your chance of bruising and recovery include head elevation after the procedure, cool compresses, avoiding things that can make you bleed more such as herbal supplements, ibuprofen, aspirin, fish oil, etc., and trying recommended herbal supplements such as Arnica Montana and Bromelain.
Most people want to get back to doing the things they want to do but you also should want a good long term result.
Sculpting the chin, jaw and face
The real issue with the recovery from chin and jaw liposuction is the fact that you have to wear the goofy garment for a few days. Surgeons ask patients to wear it 24hrs/day for AT LEAST 3 days.
Then at night thereafter. This decreases swelling and bruising while helping the skin to scar into the correct position. The bruising is typically minimal and with the right post treatment protocols patients do very well.
