But does it work?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The only problem most of us face with our chins is the occasional&nbsp;hormonal spot, or &#8211; whisper it &#8211; the odd pesky whisker. Nothing a&nbsp;dab of tea tree oil, a pair of tweezers and a magnifying mirror can\u2019t&nbsp;solve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But what about the double chin? When no amount of cream, facial&nbsp;exercises or dieting helps, cosmetic surgeons come to the rescue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a decade, whenever property consultant Jamela Ahmed, 30,&nbsp;caught sight of her reflection she saw only one thing: her double&nbsp;chin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Once you notice something like a double chin, it becomes the bane&nbsp;of your life,\u2019 says Jamela, who lives in London with her husband and&nbsp;two children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018I was 20 when I became aware of it. They run in the family. My&nbsp;mother and grandmother have them, too. \u2018Nobody else commented&nbsp;on it but, gradually, my double chin depleted my confidence and made me feel and look older.\u2019 Jamela spent a decade&nbsp;trying everything to make her double chin disappear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018I massaged it, did facial exercises, used firming lotions and even&nbsp;dieted,\u2019 she recalls. \u2018But nothing made any difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Then I read a newspaper article last summer about a laser-assisted&nbsp;liposuction procedure called Smartlipo, for double chins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Even though I\u2019d been having Anti-Wrinkle Injections and fillers in my face, surgery&nbsp;frightened me. But I began researching the procedure.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jamela\u2019s saving grace came in the form of Dr Ayham Ayoubi, a cosmetic&nbsp;and plastic surgeon at the London Medical &amp; Aesthetic Clinic&nbsp;(LMA), who pioneered the treatment in the UK. In October she had&nbsp;a consultation at his Harley Street clinic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018The process uses technology designed to reduce fat and tighten&nbsp;the skin in delicate areas like the chin because it is non-aggressive&nbsp;unlike traditional methods of liposuction,\u2019 says Dr Ayoubi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Smartlipo can be used nearly anywhere &#8211; face, Jamela before, left,&nbsp;and after neck, chin, arms, hips and lovehandles, and the chest on men.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jamela returned to the clinic in November for the procedure. \u2018The only uncomfortable bit was when Dr Ayoubi injected&nbsp;the anaesthetic,\u2019 she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Amazingly, half an hour later the doctor announced he had removed 100 ml of fat. There was no bruising or stitches,&nbsp;just a little discomfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Although I felt well enough to go to work, the logical thing was to go home. \u2018Initially, I couldn\u2019t see much difference but,&nbsp;a week later, my chin had tightened significantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a month, it was gone. I was over the moon. I didn\u2019t tell anyone about the liposuction until after I\u2019d had it done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I approached it as a beauty treatment rather than surgery, even though \u00a32,000 isn\u2019t what you\u2019d pay in your average&nbsp;salon!\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eight months on, Jamela says she\u2019s the most confident she\u2019s ever been, and even wears tops with low-cut necklines&nbsp;and jewellery that draws attention to her neck area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Would I consider other surgery? Oh, yes!\u2019 she exclaims.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;Jamela says she is the most confident she has ever been, and even wears tops with low-cut necklines.<\/em><br><em>Thanks to Dr Ayham Al-Ayoubi who pioneered the Smartlipo treatment in the UK.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Author:<\/strong><br>Sadie Nicholas<br>Daily Mail<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>File:<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Smartlipo_1_0.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Smartlipo.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Jamela says she is the most confident she has ever been, and even wears tops with low-cut necklines.<br \/>\nThanks to Dr Ayham Al-Ayoubi who pioneered the Smartlipo treatment in the UK.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1348,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[17],"class_list":["post-1346","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-testimonials","tag-smartlipo","entry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Sadie Nicholas For Daily Mail - LMA Clinic<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lmaclinic.com\/lma\/testimonials\/sadie-nicholas-daily-mail\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Sadie Nicholas For Daily Mail - LMA Clinic\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"&quot;Jamela says she is the most confident she has ever been, and even wears tops with low-cut necklines.
