Patients in Cheshire can see Mr Reza Nassab for chin and neck liposuction at CLNQ, King Street, Knutsford, where treatment under local anaesthetic may also be carried out; if a general anaesthetic is needed, surgery takes place at Deansgate Hospital, Manchester. The procedure aims to reduce a double chin and sharpen the line between jaw and neck through a few tiny incisions. Many patients come from Knutsford, Wilmslow, Alderley Edge, Macclesfield and Altrincham, and aftercare is arranged locally.
How chin liposuction works
Fat beneath the chin is often inherited and can resist even a disciplined diet. During chin and neck liposuction, the area is first filled with dilute anaesthetic fluid to numb it and reduce bleeding. A slender cannula is then passed through small openings under the chin and behind the ears to remove fat in a smooth, even pattern, taking care along the jawline where a small facial nerve runs. The aim is a cleaner profile rather than maximum fat removal, preserving a natural layer beneath the skin.
Your appointment at CLNQ, King Street
Mr Nassab sees every patient personally. He will ask about your concerns, weight history and health, then assess your profile, skin tone, jowls and neck bands. This allows him to explain whether liposuction alone suits you or whether skin tightening, such as FaceTite, or a neck lift would serve you better. You will leave with a clear understanding of the plan, likely recovery and potential complications, plus a written quote. The consultation costs £150, which is separate from the surgical fee. Chin FaceTite combined with liposuction costs from £7,500 while liposuction alone is quoted at consultation.
Where treatment takes place
Chin liposuction is usually a day-case procedure. Many patients have the procedure under local anaesthetic, which may be carried out at CLNQ in Knutsford. If sedation or a general anaesthetic is appropriate, it is given by a consultant anaesthetist at Deansgate Hospital in Manchester city centre. On arrival you will meet the team and Mr Nassab for markings. After surgery a compression garment is applied and you will rest until you feel ready to leave. Arrange for someone to drive you home.
Healing at home in Cheshire
Expect bruising and swelling for around two to three weeks, with a firm, slightly tight feeling under the chin for a few weeks more. The chin strap is typically worn continuously for the first week, then at night. Most people return to office work after about a week. Follow-up is arranged locally, which keeps journeys short while you heal. See the chin liposuction recovery guide for a week-by-week outline.
Serving patients across Cheshire
People from Knutsford, Wilmslow, Alderley Edge, Macclesfield, Altrincham, Hale and neighbouring towns often choose to keep their care within Cheshire. For those who work in the city, consultations are also available at CLNQ, Deansgate Square; see chin and neck liposuction in Manchester.
Is it the right procedure for you?
You may be suitable if you are an adult aged 18 or over, close to a stable, healthy weight, with a well-defined fat pocket under the chin and good skin elasticity. It is less suitable if loose skin or prominent neck bands are the main issue, or if you plan to lose a lot of weight soon. The chin liposuction vs neck lift comparison may help you think through the options before your appointment.
Preparing for your procedure
In the weeks before surgery, aim to keep your weight steady, since fluctuations can change the result. Stop smoking and nicotine products at least six weeks beforehand, and tell the team about all medicines and supplements, as some affect bleeding. Buy a few soft, loose-necked tops and a spare pillow so you can sleep with your head raised. If you work locally in Wilmslow or Knutsford, plan around a week away from the office, and schedule social events and photographs for at least three to four weeks after surgery, when bruising and most swelling have usually settled.
Safety and support after surgery
You will have a 24-hour contact number. Contact the team the same day for fever, a red or discharging incision, or worsening pain, and urgently for rapid swelling on one side of the neck. Call 999 for breathing difficulty, chest pain or breathlessness, and seek same-day advice from your GP or NHS 111 for sudden calf pain or leg swelling. The risks guide explains potential complications in detail.
