SlimLipos new laser technology which targets and melts fat and tightens skin has made it possible to remove a double chin without the recovery or possible scaring you would expect with regular liposuction. The procedure is done with a tiny laser fibre which is inserted beneath the chin skin and can be done with local anaesthesia using 924nm and 924/975nm laser wavelengths that specifically target fat and loose skin. A supportive garment called a chin strap is worn for 4-5 days after the procedure to help keep the skin tight during recovery.

SlimLipo new laser technology melts the fat beneath the chin into a liquid which is then moved with little effort or risk to the patient. Unlike regular liposuction, laser liposuction also tightens the skin as the fat is melting. This skin tightening draws the skin back into a nice contour beneath the chin.

Why is Laser Liposuction Different from Regular Liposuction?

In laser liposuction a small laser fibre is placed beneath the skin and the laser beam heats the fat and skin. This heat not only dissolves the fat but the skin tightens in response to being heated. Thus unlike after normal liposuction, the skin is tightened and not left loose. Laser liposuction melts the fat into a thin liquid that is easy to remove. Regular liposuction is more traumatic as larger fat particles are pulled out by suction. Laser liposuction is also ideal for laser body sculpting and liposculpture.

The laser liposuction double chin elimination procedure can be done in less than an hour. Elimination of the double chin with laser liposuction is done with a local anaesthetic and is easily tolerated. A chin strap is placed over the double chin area which has to be worn for 2 or 3 days. If you are comfortable wearing it you can go back to work. If you have the procedure on Friday you certainly can take the chin strap off on Monday and go back to work.
