Your Submental Liposuction Procedure

To begin your procedure, Dr. Augenstein will administer local anesthesia to ensure you do not feel anything during your submental liposuction. Next, he will make small incisions under the chin and behind the ears to access the fat deposits. These incisions are usually less than half an inch long and strategically placed to minimize visible scarring. Dr. Augenstein will then use a small cannula to gently suction the excess fat from the submental area. Last, he will carefully close the incisions with surgical glue.
