Double chin correction

For some people, the chin is a big aesthetic problem. Regardless of the loss of body weight, that part of many people does not take on a satisfactory appearance even then. Namely, the chin still creates an aesthetic problem due to the effect of excess skin, which hangs limply. In other people, fatty deposits can be accentuated in that region, which results in the loss of the natural neck line.

The method of removing a stepbrother at the Bagatin Polyclinic depends on whether the person is younger or older, which also determines the nature of the problem. In the case of young people in whom fatty tissue accumulates in that area, and the effect of dieting is not achieved, liposuction is the best choice. At Bagatin Polyclinic, we most often recommend VASER Lipo ultrasonic liposuction , which is considered the most modern technology in the world of liposuction, because unlike traditional liposuction, it has a shorter recovery time, better results and complications are reduced to a minimum, which means that blood vessels, capillaries, nerves and collagen in the tissue remain intact. With VASER Lipo ultrasonic liposuction, you can achieve noticeable results in just one visit, and in addition, this type of liposuction is clinically proven to improve skin tightness on the treated parts of the body.

In older people, in addition to the accumulation of fat tissue, there is also the problem of loose structures, so the neck “hangs” and it is necessary to perform additional tightening correction. The surgery is possible under local or general anesthesia, depending on the extent of the procedure.

People of all ages may need liposuction of the double chin. Both women and men undergo liposuction at the Bagatin Polyclinic, and the scope of the procedure varies depending on the condition of the neck and double chin. People of different ages also frequently request minimal correction of the double chin, which achieves a significantly better condition of the neck and a younger and fresher appearance.

However, the candidates are mostly middle-aged and elderly people, when weight gain and fat accumulation often occur, as well as loss of skin tone and sagging, which is most pronounced in this region for many people. Likewise, people with a very pronounced double chin. In such cases, a relatively large amount of fat tissue is removed, so the result of the operation is extremely noticeable.

As with other surgical procedures performed under general anesthesia at the Bagatin Polyclinic, certain preparations are necessary:

• undergo diagnostic tests that your doctor will refer you to during your consultation, and the results of which must not be older than a month;
• It is necessary to avoid taking pills that affect blood coagulation, as they can increase bleeding and the appearance of hematomas;
• It is necessary to stop smoking 10-14 days before surgery;
• A few days before the surgery, you will undergo an anesthesiology examination with all the necessary findings. If you are taking any medication continuously, you should inform our doctor and follow her instructions regarding this;
• It is important to remember that you should not eat or drink anything 8 hours before the surgery;
• In the morning or the evening before, depending on the time of the scheduled surgery, you will receive injectable thromboprophylaxis at our Polyclinic;
• It is important that you follow all necessary instructions, which we will inform you about in a timely manner.

Sliding genioplasty / osteotomy / chin surgery

After administering anesthesia, the surgeon will make an incision in the oral cavity to free the chin, then cut into the bone on both sides of the cheek, being careful not to damage the nerve. This will allow him to pull the chin bone forward, thus placing the chin in the desired position.

The new position of the chin is secured with titanium plates and screws that will not need to be removed later. Over time, the bone will grow and fill the space where the bone was cut and moved forward.

The procedure lasts approximately 90-120 minutes and is performed under general anesthesia. The patient stays at the Polyclinic for a few hours, and then goes to home care, with the note that he cannot drive himself, so transportation home needs to be organized.

Implant placement

This procedure is performed under general anesthesia and takes about an hour and a half. Through a small incision under the chin, the surgeon creates a space for positioning the silicone implant in the desired position. If necessary, the implant is secured with sutures to the periosteum. Sometimes the implant is firmly in place where it was inserted, so additional fixation is not necessary.

Volux dermal fillers for the beard

Dermal Volux fillers for the chin are injected with very thin needles directly on the facial bone, with local anesthesia that will alleviate the stinging sensation itself. The preparation itself has an anesthetic, so the anesthesia will start to work when we start applying the filler.

The application is made along the chin and the entire lower jaw. Dermal filler in some way does myomodulation, that is, it blocks the function of the target muscles when we put it in the right region. If we put the preparation above the chin, it will lower our chin and prevent muscle function, i.e. change muscle function.

No recovery period is required – after this method, you can immediately resume your regular daily activities.

Radiesse dermal fillers for chin and jaw

Radiesse dermal fillers are the safest fillers in the world, and are injected with thin needles under the skin of the chin and along the entire lower jaw. Local anesthesia will relieve the stinging sensation.

Due to its exceptional cohesion, Radiesse stays firmly in the place where it is applied, thus creating support and structure. By applying linear rows of this dermal filler, the lines of the jaw and cheeks are clearly and sharply defined. Over time, they get better and better because the cross-linking of the resulting collagen fibers provides additional support to the resulting contour, thus strengthening the desired shape.

No recovery period is required – after this method, you can immediately resume your regular daily activities.

Minor to moderate pain can be expected after jaw surgery, which is controlled by prescribing analgesics by the surgeon.

To avoid damage and strain to the newly operated chin, it is recommended to eat softer foods that do not require chewing.

It’s important not to put pressure on your chin when sleeping – that’s why it’s ideal to sleep on your back, with your head elevated to prevent facial swelling. Hot drinks and food can contribute to swelling, so avoid them – as well as going out in the sun or in too hot rooms.

After an osteotomy, a plaster is worn for 5-7 days, and the stitches are removed after 7 to 14 days. It is not unusual for some minimal swelling or bruising to occur, but this is nothing to worry about. These are temporary symptoms and will usually resolve within two weeks.

When installing the implant, the stitches are removed between the fifth and seventh day after the operation, and the recovery is quick and easy. Similar instructions should be followed as in the case of osteotomy.

Injection of hyaluronic fillers does not require recovery and usually has no side effects, while the application of hydroxyapatite fillers activates the immune system, so mild swelling, redness, and transient irregularities can be expected within 24 to 48 hours after injection.

After the dermal filler procedure, you can immediately resume your daily activities.

Complications from osteotomy and implant surgery are extremely rare. Sometimes, mild swelling, hematoma formation, a feeling of weakness or numbness of the lower lip may occur, which may make it harder for the patient to smile or speak – but all of this is harmless and passes quickly.

As with all procedures, there is always a risk of infection, so it is necessary to take antibiotics and adhere to hygiene rules. In order for the bone to heal in the best possible way, it is important to follow the doctor’s instructions on diet, sleeping habits and any other instructions the doctor gives after discharge from the Polyclinic.
