A.A double-chin mini lift can help improve a double chin, sagging jawline, jowls, and lower-face sagging. It corrects the platysma beneath the chin, lifts sagging lower-face and jawline tissue, and removes excess skin to create a more defined jawline and smoother face-to-neck line.

A.A small 1–3 cm incision is made beneath the chin for double-chin muscle tightening, and an incision extending from in front of the ear to behind the ear is made to lift the jawline and lower face. Incisions are designed with consideration for natural creases and contours.

A.The surgery is performed under sedation anesthesia, so you will feel little to no pain during the procedure. A pulling sensation, stiffness, or swelling may occur afterward depending on the individual, but gradually improves over time.

A.You will visit the clinic the day after surgery for a progress check. Sutures are generally removed in two stages on days 7 and 9. Depending on the incision and recovery, staples may be used on the neck or from the neck to the scalp to stabilize the tissue and support recovery. An additional visit is recommended at one month to assess recovery.

A.The incision beneath the chin is small, approximately 1–3 cm, and is placed where it is relatively inconspicuous from the front or side. Scars around the ears also gradually fade during recovery, although visibility varies by skin condition and melanin level. Most scars improve significantly over 3–6 months, and laser scar treatment may be considered if necessary.
