Facial Plastic Surgery: Neck Liposuction

Neck Liposuction

A person’s overall appearance is enhanced by a smooth and graceful neckline. It makes one appear more refined. Neck liposuction body contouring procedure can help patients achieve the beautiful neckline they deserve in a natural manner.

Neck Liposuction Surgery Benefits

Neck liposuction helps in creating a smoother, firmer, and more refined appearance to the chin and neck. You can dramatically change your appearance by improving a wrinkled, thick, or sagging neck even if you don’t make any other changes to your face. The surgery can help patients appear younger and as if they have lost weight.

Neck liposuction plastic surgery procedure can help provide balance to facial features. It can give you a better jawline that enhances the rest of your face.

Candidates for Neck Liposuction

Do you feel that you have a double chin or an excessively full chin even though you are at a healthy weight? Neck liposuction can help you achieve a more graceful and defined neckline permanently. Ideal candidates would be in the 20 to early-50s age group.

This is because liposuction can remove surplus fat but cannot improve sagging skin. Younger patients have better skin elasticity which is necessary for making the skin contract evenly and smoothly following the surgery.

Basics of Neck Liposuction Procedure

Neck liposuction plastic surgery is a quick and safe procedure for most patients. It can be performed under local anesthesia by making just 1 to 2 tiny incisions. These incisions will be concealed behind ears or beneath the chin. Your cosmetic surgeon will insert a liposuction cannula for extracting surplus fat. They will also sculpt the chin and neck to a more natural contour.

Patients are typically recommended to wear special supportive chin strap for 3 to 4 days. You will be able to resume work within 7 days and cleared for full activity after 14 days. Swelling and bruising are typical following neck liposuction. This will resolve on its own in the first 10 to 14 days of the surgery.

Goals and Considerations of Neck Liposuction
