Frequently Asked Questions
Who is a candidate for liposuction of the neck and jowls?
Patients with stubborn fatty deposits under the chin or along the jawline that cause sagging are typically good candidates.
How does the procedure work?
The targeted area is heated with a laser, then fatty tissue is removed with a syringe, tightening the skin as a result.
How does this compare to a neck lift?
Liposuction alone offers dramatic improvement for fat-related fullness with a shorter procedure. A neck lift addresses more advanced skin laxity and may be recommended together with liposuction for some patients.
What is recovery like?
Recovery is generally quicker than a full neck lift since it’s a shorter surgical procedure, though your surgeon can give you a personalized timeline.
