Sculpt a sharper, more defined profile without the long recovery of traditional surgery.
Neck and jawline contouring is one of the most requested facial sculpting procedures at Formation, and for good reason. A well-defined jawline communicates confidence, youth, and vitality. But for many people, especially men, genetics and the natural aging process create stubborn fat deposits under the chin, skin laxity along the neck, and a loss of separation between the jaw and the neck that no amount of diet or exercise can correct.
At Formation, we specialize in minimally invasive jawline sculpting and neck contouring procedures that sharpen your profile, tighten loose skin, and eliminate fullness beneath the chin. Our approach combines high definition neck liposuction with advanced skin tightening technology like FaceTite, and in select cases, MyEllevate permanent suspension threads for patients who need additional lift.
Whether you are a man in your 30s frustrated by a genetic double chin or someone in your 50s noticing that your neck no longer matches the rest of your physique, these treatments are tailored to your anatomy, your skin quality, and your goals. The result is a clean, natural jawline and a more athletic neck profile that looks like it has always been yours.
Formation’s main clinic is located in Tampa’s South Howard neighborhood, and we proudly serve patients from Bayside West and surrounding communities throughout the Tampa Bay area. If you have been considering neck and jawline contouring in Bayside West, FL, you are closer to a sharper profile than you think.
Choosing where to have facial contouring done is one of the most important decisions you will make. It is not just about the procedure. It is about the surgeon’s judgment, the philosophy behind the practice, and the quality of care you receive from consultation through recovery.
Formation was built around a simple idea: aesthetic procedures should be a catalyst for lasting confidence, not an isolated event. That philosophy is led by Dr. Gopal Grandhige, a board-certified surgeon who specializes in aesthetic surgery and brings over 15 years of surgical experience to every patient interaction. Dr. Grandhige trained at the University of Michigan Medical School and completed advanced fellowship training across complex surgical disciplines. He personally evaluates every patient, designs each surgical plan, and remains deeply involved before, during, and after every procedure. Formation also has Dr. Ahmad Saad, a board-certified plastic surgeon, on the team for patients who may benefit from more extensive surgical options such as a traditional facelift.
What makes Formation different from other practices offering jawline contouring near Bayside West is depth. Surgical volume is intentionally limited so every patient receives focused, unhurried care. Recovery is not treated as an afterthought. It is actively managed through structured follow-up, compression guidance, lymphatic support, and inflammation control. Dr. Grandhige has personally vetted every provider on the recovery team to ensure optimal outcomes.
Formation patients are not rushed through a system. They are educated, prepared, and supported at every step. That is why patients travel from across Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Orlando, Miami, and beyond for their care.
All surgical procedures are performed in fully accredited Quad A certified surgical facilities, meeting the highest national standards for outpatient surgical safety in accordance with Florida’s office surgery regulations. Dr. Grandhige works with the same anesthesia provider and surgical staff on every case, creating consistency, efficiency, and an added layer of safety.
You do not need to settle for a profile that does not match how you feel. Whether you are exploring neck liposuction, skin tightening, or a full jawline sculpting plan, Formation offers a personalized consultation designed to give you clarity, not pressure. Patients from Bayside West and across the Tampa Bay region trust Formation for results that look natural, hold up over time, and feel aligned with who they are.
Everyoneโs anatomy and aesthetic goals are uniqueโwhich is why a personalized assessment is key.

1 Month Post-Op Transformation! ๐ฅ
Fixing previous surgical outcomes requires precision, expertise, and a tailored approach.
Hereโs how Dr. Grandhige transformed this patientโs core and chest:
The Challenge:
Previous tummy tuck left uneven abdominal fat distribution
High scar placement creating a visible โshelfโ effect
The Solution:
HD Liposculpture to refine and sculpt a athletic, masculine core and chest
Scar Revision to eliminate the shelf-like appearance and create a smoother profile
Keep in mind, at just 1 month post-op, swelling is still settling and we are nowhere near final results! Canโt wait to see this shape mature over the next few months. ๐ฅ

Trust the process. ๐ค
This beautiful tummy tuck transformation is only 1 month post-op!
What makes this journey even more special is where it began. Two years ago, this patient came to us wanting change but wasnโt quite ready for the operating table. Instead of rushing, we partnered with her for the long haul. Through the strategic use of GLP-1 therapy, dedicated nutrition guidance, and mindset coaching, she completely transformed her health to get to where she is today.
While she is already looking incredible, itโs important to remember that residual swelling and inflammation are completely normal at this stage. Healing takes time, but the foundation for an amazing result is officially set!
We are so incredibly honored to be a part of every patient`s unique journey, and we are committed to being with you every single step of the way.
Drop a โค๏ธ to wish her a continued smooth recovery!

A physically active male patient and fellow physician trained regularly and maintained a disciplined diet but felt frustrated that his profile never reflected the effort he put in. Submental fullness and a soft neck blurred the strong jawline he knew was underneath. After a targeted neck liposuction and contouring procedure at Formation, his profile looked sharper, more athletic, and completely natural. Colleagues never suspected a procedure. He simply looked more like himself.
A professional in his 40s had always carried fullness under his chin and along his neck, regardless of his weight. It made him look heavier and more tired than he felt, especially on video calls and in photographs. After precise neck and jaw contouring that respected his natural angles, colleagues commented that he looked more rested and confident. He told our team that for the first time, his face matched the rest of his body.
Formation maintains a 5.0 rating with over 40 reviews. You can view before and after photos on our website. Our trust badges include affiliations with the University of Michigan, Yale New Haven Hospital, Johns Hopkins, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, and the American College of Surgeons.
If any of the following sound familiar, a consultation at Formation may be the right next step for you.
Formation’s clinic is located at 1315 South Howard Avenue in Tampa’s vibrant SoHo neighborhood, just a short drive from Bayside West. Residents of Bayside West enjoy a peaceful, waterfront lifestyle along Old Tampa Bay with easy access to Gandy Boulevard and Westshore Boulevard, making the trip to our Tampa office convenient and quick.
Whether you are coming from the shops near Britton Plaza, heading over after a morning at Picnic Island Beach, or simply making the short drive along the Gandy corridor, you will find that Formation is one of the closest specialized men’s aesthetic surgery practices to the Bayside West area.
We also welcome patients from South Tampa, Hyde Park, Davis Islands, Westchase, Carrollwood, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, and communities throughout Florida. Many patients travel from Miami, Orlando, Sarasota, and Atlanta specifically for Dr. Grandhige’s expertise in jawline refinement and male body contouring.
Most patients return to work and social activities within about one week. A compression garment is worn for the first few weeks to support healing. Liposuction results become apparent within two to four weeks, and final skin tightening results from FaceTite typically develop over three to six months as new collagen forms.
The fat cells removed through high definition neck liposuction do not regenerate, so that component of the result is permanent as long as you maintain a stable weight. Skin tightening results from FaceTite can last five to seven years or longer depending on your skin quality, sun exposure, and lifestyle habits.
Yes. Formation treats both men and women seeking a sharper, more defined jawline and neck profile. That said, the technique and aesthetic goals differ. Male contouring focuses on creating angular, masculine definition, while female contouring emphasizes a softer, elegant contour. Dr. Grandhige tailors every plan to the patient's individual anatomy and goals.
FaceTite is an FDA cleared device that uses radiofrequency energy delivered beneath the skin to stimulate collagen production and cause the skin to contract and tighten over time. It is the strongest minimally invasive skin tightening technology available and is often combined with neck liposuction to create the best possible jawline definition without the scars or recovery of a traditional facelift.
During your consultation, Dr. Grandhige will evaluate your skin elasticity, the amount of fat present, and the degree of skin laxity to determine the best approach. Many patients with mild to moderate concerns are excellent candidates for minimally invasive contouring. For patients with more significant laxity who may need a surgical facelift, Formation's board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ahmad Saad is available to help.
Your profile tells a story before you say a word. If you are ready to look as sharp, confident, and energized as you feel on the inside, Formation is here to help you get there.
Consultations are by appointment only and are designed to give you honest, expert guidance, not a sales pitch. Whether surgery is the right answer or not, you will leave with a clear understanding of your options and a realistic picture of what is possible.
Patients from Bayside West and across Tampa Bay choose Formation for neck and jawline contouring in Bayside West, FL because they want thoughtful care, natural results, and a surgeon whose judgment they can trust.
