Facial liposuction is a surgical procedure which the goal is to remove the fat deposits that form in the neck, under the chin and jaw. It is also like the traditional body liposuction, only it is performed on a smaller scale and removes only few ounces of fat. It can remove double chin, jowls and turtle neck. Sometimes, the surgeon may insert implants along with liposuction to restore symmetry and harmony in one’s face. The buccal fat, which is responsiblefor chubby cheeks, can also be removed as well.
If you are already considering facial liposuction, better think more about it and make sure you are in good health. You should try first to shed fat by reduced diet and exercise, consider surgery only if anything else fails. But you must postpone surgery if you are planning to reduce weight because weight loss can alter the look of your face after surgery. You should thoroughly know the surgical process; any questions must be discussed with your surgeon.
The best in this type of surgery that can give maximum results are the board-certified plastic and facial plastic surgeons with extensive experience in this procedure. They will subject you to a series of medical and physical examinations, also they will take before and after photos so you have a better idea of the changes yourself. Be relaxed and consult any fears and worries to your doctor.
A two to four incision is made beneath your chin after anesthesia and mild sedation. A cannula is inserted into incision and moved back and forth to loosen fats, or ultrasound, jets of water or laser can be employed in this method. Then fat is vacuumed and the incision is closed with stitches.
Procedure takes about 45 minutes and can cost from $2,500 to $5,000. Financing for liposuction can be discussed with your doctor if available.
