What is Double Chin Lipo LA?
Double-chin liposuction under local anaesthesia is a minimally invasive way to permanently eliminate submental fat and sculpt a defined jawline. The area is numbed with local anaesthetic and light sedation keeps you relaxed throughout, allowing a quicker recovery and same-day return to your hotel.
How Does Double Chin Lipo LA Work?
- 1Video consultation with chin-profile assessment and confirmation that local anaesthesia is suitable
- 2On the day, local anaesthetic with tumescent solution is injected into the submental fat pad
- 3A small 2-3 mm incision is made under the chin
- 4A thin cannula is used to break up and suction out the excess fat while you remain awake but relaxed
- 5The incision is closed with a single suture and a compression chin strap is applied immediately
Who is a Good Candidate for Double Chin Lipo LA?
- Patients with a localised double chin caused by excess fat rather than loose skin
- Adults with good skin elasticity for smooth post-lipo contraction
- Those who prefer to avoid general anaesthesia or have medical reasons to choose local
- Individuals at or near their target body weight
- Patients seeking a standalone chin-contouring procedure with minimal downtime
Why Choose Double Chin Lipo LA at MedProper?
No General Anaesthesia
Local numbing with light sedation means faster recovery, no intubation, and reduced anaesthesia-related risks.
Permanent Fat Removal
Liposuction removes fat cells permanently — the double chin will not return as long as weight remains stable.
Same-Day Discharge
Most patients walk out of the clinic within an hour and enjoy dinner at the hotel the same evening.
All-Inclusive Package
The €1,522 package covers the procedure, local anaesthesia, clinic care, hotel, transfers, medications, and 12-month aftercare.
What is the Recovery Timeline?
Day 1
Procedure & Discharge
The procedure takes 30-45 minutes. You rest briefly at the clinic and return to the hotel the same day.
Day 2-3
Mild Swelling
Moderate swelling and light bruising under the chin are expected. Continue wearing the compression strap.
Day 4-5
Resuming Activities
Many patients feel comfortable going out socially. Swelling is noticeably decreasing.
Week 2
Visible Improvement
Bruising has resolved and the jawline is already looking sharper. The strap is worn at night only.
Month 1-3
Final Result
All residual swelling settles and the refined chin-to-neck profile is fully visible.

Frequently Asked Questions
The submental area is thoroughly numbed with local anaesthetic before any work begins. You may feel mild pressure or a tugging sensation, but it should not be painful. Light sedation keeps you relaxed.
Local anaesthesia avoids the risks and grogginess associated with general anaesthesia, allows faster discharge, and costs the same. It is ideal for patients who only need chin liposuction without additional procedures.
Yes. The liposuction technique and fat removal are identical. The only difference is how you are sedated during the procedure.
The compression strap is worn continuously for the first 5-7 days, then at night only for another 1-2 weeks. It helps reduce swelling and encourages the skin to contract smoothly.
The package covers the liposuction procedure, local anaesthesia and sedation, clinic care, compression garment, medications, 5-star hotel accommodation, VIP airport transfers, and 12 months of remote follow-up.
