Double chin liposuction with Bodytite is a procedure suitable for people who want to reduce excess fat in the submental area and achieve a firmer contouring of the neck, with better contracted skin. This technique is recommended for those who have a moderate double chin, with skin elasticity still sufficient to benefit from contraction through radiofrequency.
The procedure consists of the extraction of fat through submental liposuction, performed with a fine cannula introduced through small, almost invisible incisions. Subsequently, the area is treated with Bodytite radiofrequency, which heats the tissues, favouring the contraction of the skin and a firmer contouring of the neck. This combination allows not only the reduction of volume, but also the improvement of the appearance of the skin, without the need for large incisions or invasive lifts.
The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia with sedation or light general anesthesia, depending on the patient’s preferences and the doctor’s recommendation. The duration of the procedure is generally 60-90 minutes, varying depending on the extent of the treated area.
Wearing a compressive band is recommended in order to support the treated area and reduce swelling. Bruising and moderate discomfort may occur, which improve within a few days.
The inflammation begins to decrease, and most patients can resume light daily activities. Intense physical effort and prolonged sun exposure are avoided.
The tissues continue to adapt, and the skin becomes progressively firmer. The results become increasingly visible, although the remodelling process may continue.
The final results are generally appreciable after 3-6 months, when the inflammation has completely subsided and the skin has regained its optimal tone.
These risks are minimised through careful preoperative evaluation, strict adherence to the surgical technique and adequate postoperative monitoring.
During the procedure, the anesthesia ensures the patient’s comfort, so that the pain is minimal or absent. During the recovery period, moderate discomfort may occur, which can be managed with prescribed analgesics.
We usually recommend wearing the compressive band for 1-2 weeks, especially in the first days, in order to support the tissues and limit swelling.
Light activities can be resumed after a few days, but intense physical effort and exercises that strain the neck must be avoided for at least 3-4 weeks for optimal healing.
The results can be long-lasting if a healthy lifestyle is maintained. However, significant weight gain after the procedure may affect the achieved appearance.
