Dr.Lee column - Double chin after facial contouring

Topic - Double chin after facial contouring

Why double chin symptom is happened after facial contouring?

There is two cases (Jaw reduction & Zygoma reduction) to compare the result.

Both of patients underwent same procedures; Jaw reduction and Zygoma reduction.
However as shown above two pictures, result is different. 

The reason is that each of patient has different body condition. Patient, in CASE 1 has thin skin and no much fat on face. 
On the other hands, CASE 2 patient has thick skin and fatty face. 
CASE 1 patient even did not undergo face life procedure, she just underwent facial contouring only. Although CASE 2 patient underwent face lift before having facial contouring, the reason patient still feel double chin is she had much more fat and soft tissue on her face.

This is not only reason which caused double chin, however this is main reason.
(White area - Skin which cover bone / Yellow area - Skin which not cover bone, only soft tissue & fat & muscle)

After facial contouring, White area would more tightly attached with bone. However, yellow area would be sagged. 
So this case is required extra face lift procedure such as Acculift, thread lift and etc to prevent skin sagging in future.
Also it is needed to be minimize a bone osteotomy as well.

To sum up, patient need to choose right surgery and surgeon to minimize any risk of problem. And if it needed, extra procedures would be recommended.
