Do you have excess fat and skin on your chin and jaw? Are you tired of feeling like you have a double chin in all of your pictures? Unfortunately, these can be the natural effects of aging, genetics, and weight changes typically occurring in your 30s and 40s. Rather than being self-conscious and struggling with your self-esteem, consider neck liposuction in Nashville.
Neck liposuction is an ideal solution for removing stubborn chin fat that does not respond to diet or exercise. Neck liposuction removes excess fat and tightens your skin, creating a more contoured, youthful appearance. Our qualified plastic surgeon, Dr. Olivia MaDan, is committed to restoring your confidence through safe and effective neck surgery procedures.
Neck Liposuction Is a Simple Procedure
Neck liposuction is less invasive than other types of neck surgery and can be completed in less than an hour. Under oral sedation, your neck is numbed with local anesthetic. Three small incisions (1 – 2 mm) are made behind your ears and under your chin. A fine, precision cannula is then used to remove the excess fat.
Removing excess fat in precise areas allows for a sculpted and contoured jawline and neck. After completing the procedure, supportive foam and compression garments are applied.
Ideal Candidates for Neck Liposuction
An ideal candidate for in-office neck liposuction is one who has good skin quality and elasticity. Typically, patients in their 20s to 40s fall into this category. The skin will tighten ~ 5 – 10 % after the liposuction procedure. Older women (60s years and up) may not have sufficient skin tightening after liposuction. A neck lift may be the best option for patients with significant skin laxity and poor elasticity.
Your overall health is another consideration when deciding whether to undergo neck liposuction in Nashville. You should be healthy and free from neck or jaw conditions that could prevent proper healing. You should also have adequate fat deposits on your neck.
You may consider neck liposuction for the following reasons:
- You desire a more youthful appearance
- You want to improve a double chin
- You desire a thinner and more contoured face, neck, and jawline
- You want to boost your confidence and self-esteem with a more symmetrical appearance
