Chin Liposuction Specialist
in Fort Lee, NJ
Cross Hudson Plastic Surgery welcomes patients seeking awake chin lipo in Fort Lee, NJ who want a more defined profile without general anesthesia. This procedure uses local anesthesia and the tumescent technique to remove stubborn fat beneath the chin and along the jawline while you stay comfortable and awake. It is a contouring treatment rather than a weight loss solution, designed to reveal the natural structure of your face. Our Fort Lee, NJ location makes it convenient for local residents to plan care close to home.
Facial Treatments That Complement Awake Chin Lipo
Jawline Filler
Jawline filler adds structure and definition along the jaw for patients who want a sharper lower face. After fat is removed beneath the chin, filler can refine the jaw angle and create a cleaner transition from face to neck.
Cheek Filler
Cheek filler restores volume to the midface and helps balance the proportions of the face. Patients who refine their chin and jawline often find that subtle cheek support creates a more harmonious overall look.
PDO Thread Lift
A PDO thread lift uses dissolvable threads placed beneath the skin to provide gentle lift and support. It can be a helpful option for patients who want added firmness in the lower face alongside a slimmer chin profile.
Facial Skin Tightening
Facial skin tightening focuses on improving the firmness and texture of skin on the face. It can support a smoother, more lifted appearance for patients who want their contouring results to look polished.
Non-Surgical Skin Tightening
Non-surgical skin tightening is designed for patients who prefer a treatment without incisions. It aims to encourage firmer looking skin and may be considered for those with mild laxity around the jaw and chin.
Lip Filler
Lip filler enhances lip shape, fullness, and definition for a balanced facial appearance. Because the lips and chin work together in your profile, some patients choose to address both for a cohesive result.
Sculptra
Sculptra is offered through our medspa as a gradual approach to restoring facial volume. It works over time to support a natural looking fullness that can complement a more sculpted lower face.

Why Choose Our Compassionate Care?
Personalized Treatment Plans
Every chin is different, so each plan is built around your specific anatomy and aesthetic goals. Dr. Mordkovich evaluates your profile carefully to determine how much fat to remove and where.
Comfort With Local Anesthesia
Avoiding general anesthesia means many patients feel more at ease and recover from the procedure day more quickly. Most patients return home the same day, and the procedure typically takes 45 to 60 minutes.
Focus on Natural Results
The goal is a sculpted lower face that suits your features rather than an overdone look. Careful fat removal through tiny, strategically placed incisions helps create a smooth, balanced profile.
Support From Start to Finish
Care continues well beyond the procedure day with compassionate post-operative guidance. You will receive clear recovery instructions, including how and when to wear your compression garment, so you feel confident as you heal.

FAQ About Awake Chin Lipo in Fort Lee, NJ
What does it mean that chin lipo is done awake?
Awake chin lipo is performed using local anesthesia rather than general anesthesia, so you stay awake while the treatment area is numbed. A tumescent solution is used to keep you comfortable as fat is removed with a specialized cannula.
Who is a good candidate for Awake Chin Lipo?
Good candidates are near their ideal body weight, have good skin elasticity, and are in overall good health. Non-smokers with realistic expectations who are bothered by fat beneath the chin tend to be well suited for this procedure.
How long until I see my final results?
Many patients resume light daily activities within 3 to 5 days and notice meaningful improvement by about one month. Full results are typically visible within three to six months and can be long lasting with a stable weight.
How much does Awake Chin Lipo cost?
Chin liposuction generally ranges from $3,500 to $6,500, depending on your anatomy, the extent of fat removal, and your treatment plan. Financing options are available, and a personalized quote is provided after your consultation.
