Neck Liposuction

What is Neck Liposuction?

Neck liposuction is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to remove excess fat from the neck and under the chin, creating a sleeker, more defined jawline. It is ideal for patients who struggle with a double chin or excess fullness in the neck area. Unlike more invasive surgeries, neck liposuction provides quick recovery, minimal scarring, and long-lasting results, making it a highly effective solution for facial contouring.

How is the Procedure Performed?

Neck liposuction is a quick outpatient procedure, typically completed in under an hour. The steps include:

1. Anesthesia:
   • Local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia ensures patient comfort.
2. Tiny Incisions:
   • Small, discreet incisions (usually under the chin or behind the ears) allow access for fat removal.
3. Fat Removal:
   • A thin cannula (hollow tube) is inserted to gently break up and suction out excess fat.
   • The procedure is performed strategically to ensure a smooth, natural contour.
4. Closure & Compression Garment:
   • Incisions are so small that stitches may not be required.
   • A compression garment is applied to minimize swelling and support healing.

Who is a Good Candidate?

You may be a good candidate for neck liposuction if you:

• Have stubborn fat under the chin or on the neck that does not respond to diet and exercise.
• Want a more defined jawline and a slimmer, youthful neck contour.
• Have good skin elasticity to ensure smooth tightening after fat removal.
• Are in good overall health with realistic expectations about the results.

Recovery & Results

• Swelling & Bruising: Most swelling and bruising subside within 7-10 days.
• Return to Work: Patients can usually return to work within 3-5 days, depending on individual healing.
• Final Results: Visible improvements appear within a few weeks, with full results in 3-6 months.
• Longevity: Results are long-lasting as fat cells are permanently removed, though a healthy lifestyle helps maintain the outcome.

Risks & Considerations

Neck liposuction is safe and effective, but as with any procedure, potential risks include:

• Temporary swelling, bruising, or mild discomfort.
• Minor scarring (usually minimal and well-hidden).
• Irregular contours (rare, minimized with expert technique).
• Infection or fluid buildup (uncommon with proper post-op care).
