As we age, gravity takes over and localized fat deposits rob us of that well-defined look, especially in the neck. The neck liposuction procedure, also known as submental liposuction or chin liposuction, slims and reshapes the area by removing excess fat and restoring contour, proportion, and improved self-image—ultimately turning back the clock. This procedure is a key component of facial plastic surgery in Virginia Beach, helping to rejuvenate your appearance and boost your confidence. At The Choe Center, we specialize in facial plastic surgery procedures to provide our patients with exceptional results and a renewed sense of self.
Today being and “looking” fit is very important for men and women alike in this career competitive, anti-aging era. A contoured, well-defined neckline is a characteristic of that more youthful appearance we all want.
If you are very self-conscious of that excess fat under your chin and you see virtually little to no definition in your neck or jawline – liposuction can offer you many benefits.

Neck Liposuction Surgery Frequently Asked Questions
No. Our patients tell us they get remarks like “Gee you look great” or, “did you change your hairstyle,” or “Have you been on vacation?” Neck Liposuction does not alter your looks so that you don’t look like you – rather – it enhances your overall appearance.
No. There is very little discomfort associated with Neck Liposuction. You will have swelling, bruising, some numbness and a “pulling sensation.” These are normal, are managed with pain medication and diminish daily. All symptoms are totally gone within a few weeks.
We normally use an IV sedation and local anesthetic – so you are asleep during your surgery – do not hear or feel anything and are totally comfortable.
You should be presentable to return to work within 3-4 days.
No. Dr. Choe will make the incisions very inconspicuous. They are made in “natural crease lines” so they are barely visible and heal very well. They are not noticeable at all after a few weeks.
Many of our patients choose to have a neck lift, facelift and/or chin augmentation at the same time. This is done very frequently – and offers the “optimum” results for a “renewed”- more youthful look.
Healing varies with each patient, but most of our patients are getting back to normal within 2 -3 weeks and look great within 6 weeks. Within 6 months – your recovery is nearly complete. It takes a few months for the body to totally heal and for expressions to become “natural.”
When considering any facial plastic surgical procedure – remember that Board Certified surgeons are the most skilled and qualified. Dr. Choe is a board certified facial plastic surgeon, certified by the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
