I have a bothersome pocket of fat under my chin

Question:
I have a bothersome pocket of fat under my chin that no matter how much weight I lose it won’t diminish. I was told years ago that liposuction wasn’t indicated for such a small sensitive area. Can the new method called SlimLipo safely remove fat from those once too small areas like the face?

Answer:
The pocket of fat beneath your chin is an ideal location to have liposuction. The SlimLipo procedure has the added benefit of skin tightening along with fat removal. I am always very conservative in this area as too much fat removed can be problematic as you age.
