Double Chin Liposuction in London
Double chin liposuction in London — also known as submental liposuction — removes the soft fat pad beneath the jawline to restore a clean, defined chin and neck angle. The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic through tiny, almost-invisible incisions and recovery is rapid.

Double chin liposuction in London — who it suits
Ideal for patients with localised submental fat and reasonable skin elasticity. A consultation will assess whether liposuction alone is sufficient or whether skin tightening would complement the result.
How the procedure is performed
A single 2–3 mm incision is made beneath the chin. Tumescent local anaesthetic is infiltrated and a microcannula is used to gently remove the submental fat, sculpting the jawline contour in real time.
Recovery and aftercare
A chin strap is worn for the first week to support the tissues. Mild bruising and swelling resolve within 7–10 days; the final jawline definition emerges over two to three months.

When can I return to work after double chin liposuction?
Most patients return within two to three days. Swelling and bruising under the jaw usually settle within one to two weeks.
