chin fat

[D0017]

Does anyone else still have some seemingly extra chin fat? I'm down to at least a safe 10% bf and just shaved the beard. And now I feel I'll need to get to 5% or less to get a good jawline.


It's not like I was fat, I'm 6ft, never been over 218 @ 14-16% bf. So it's not like I have excess skin hanging down.
And I'm fAR to young to have a turkey neck. This is just an annoying fat pad under my face.
Suggestions to get rid of this?

Laser or cool sculpting will work, but it's not cheap and it takes multiple treatments. There's also an acid injection method, I forget the name. If you're really at 10%, now would be the time to do it, because those treatments will kill more fat cells when they are depleted and small than otherwise.

You could also just grow a beard. OR.. get a tat that makes it look like muscle : )

View media item 1747 sorry for the shotty edit job, I don't like to spend 1000 buck on the newest greatest phones, so this is the quality I get.
I could be more than 10%
I'm just going off of a doctor's guess@10%, a handheld @9.7, and my scale at home says 10.2
I will look into the sculpting procedures. Thank you for the info

There’s a good chance you’ll spend LESS removing “trouble spot fat” with formal liposuction
compared to the use of newer techniques, primarily bc the latter almost always require multiple treatments.

That’s not to suggest the newer techniques don’t work bc they often do when properly performed by trained HCPs.

The latter is important bc many untrained individuals are conducting “cold sculpting” often with less than desirable results.

In fact a FDA approved cold sculpting device is being sold to the lay public for personal use and the results pale in comparison to what is being used by plastic surgeons.

Once again you get what ya pay for!

Last spring I received a couple of "cool sculpting" sessions "free" as long as they could use the before and after pics in their ads. I happened to be just starting a cut at the time, so I was pretty ripped in the after pics six weeks later. They decided not to use the pics for any advertising, because they didn't think anyone would believe the results were that good. None of their other clients had remotely similar successes.

I had it done in a salon owned by a woman I met at a social function. The young girl who did the treatments confided in me she had been trained for exactly 2 hours before being turned loose on the general public. She was so clumsy positioning the applicators (with pillows!) I ended up holding them in place for the hour long treatment.

I haven't seen any personal devices that reach the required temperatures except on alibaba and similar sites, and those are definitely not FDA approved.

I basically got the same except my fat is on the back of my head.
Its really weird, i have a nice jawline visible and when i dont have my head in a weird forward position a roll of fat builds up on my neck, right above my throat on the lowest bit where my head ends at the back of my head.
But im really lean everywhere else and idk what to do about it

Thanks for the input and info, I'm going to try to find some place local to compare the lipo vs new treatments to see what they recomend, and what it costs.
