You can now remove that excess fat from the neck that has been resistant to diet and exercise. This minimally invasive surgery utilizes small liposuction cannulas and three small incisions, one under the chin and one behind each earlobe. This procedure may be performed by itself or combined with a chin implant to enhance the profile or a facelift to help eradicate that “turkey wattle.”

How Neck Liposuction Works

Dr. Davis' neck liposuction procedure in Houston is performed with local anesthesia and may also include intravenous sedation. This is done to keep you at ease during the procedure. First, three small incisions will be made. Two will be made behind the earlobes and one beneath the chin. Using a cannula, which is a thin metal tube, the fat will be removed.

Dr. Davis will contour the area beneath the chin and the neck to reveal a more sculpted neck. The procedure usually takes about 30 minutes to perform, and patients can be discharged to their homes shortly after the procedure is completed.

Benefits of Neck Liposuction

The fat beneath the neck can be challenging to target using diet and exercise. Because of this, neck liposuction is a great way to target the fat in the area. Your results from neck liposuction will be a slimmer and more contoured neck. The results will be permanent, so there will not be any repeat procedures required unless you can fat in the area at a later date.

Neck Lift VS Neck Liposuction

Neck Liposuction is different from a neck lift. In a neck liposuction procedure, the excess fat is removed from the area. This may also be done in a neck lift but also includes the tightening of the muscles beneath the neck and tissue redistribution. If you have sagging skin in addition to excess fat, you may be better suited to a neck lift. If you are only concerned with excess fat, then neck liposuction is a great treatment option.

Recovery from Neck Liposuction

After your neck liposuction in Houston with Dr. Davis, you will be able to recover at home. Most patients are able to return to their regular activities, including exercise, within two weeks of their procedure. You may experience some swelling and bruising as you’re healing. Dr. Davis may also have you wear a compression garment to help with swelling. For those interested in neck liposuction, contact us today to schedule a consultation
