Liposuction for Delicate Areas

Liposuction on the face and neck can be seen as delicate procedures because of the thinner skin and abundance of veins near the surface of your skin. Although this is only one of several areas that men and women rely on to show off youth and beauty, it is the one that is most noticeable. They require even results in these areas because it is how they communicate with and feel confident in the world around them. Therefore, special, thin tools and gentler procedures that combine liquefying fat with skin tightening are used in a surgery procedure to achieve maximum results with minimum effort.

The skin in the face and neck is very susceptible to tear and significant damage and bruising; therefore, laser and ultrasonic applications are very common instead of traditional cannula use. Lasers and ultrasonic tools and techniques offer more even fat removal because it is capable of heating the fat. They often accompany the many facelift procedures in order to provide a dramatically rejuvenated appearance for the patient who believes they suffer from 'double' chin. The improved elasticity to the skin in those areas is an added benefit of performing liposuction in these areas, so they compliment facial muscle lift for a longer lasting effect.

The laser and ultrasonic techniques and tools are similar but provide two separate applications for the patients they are used upon. First of all, both applications make use of the insertion of a small amount of local anesthetic to numb the area as well as minimize bleed out. Second, several small incisions are made into the fat pockets. With the laser application, low levels of ultraviolet light are introduced to the area. It heats the fat to a liquid state. With the ultrasonic application, sound waves are used to gradually break up the fat and heat it until it becomes liquid as well. Lastly, once it is liquefied it will begin to drain from the tiny incisions made throughout the desired area. Tiny cannulas can be used to assist in the fluid removal from the site. Overall, these two methods work to tighten the skin by way of the massage from the laser and ultrasonic waves through the skin. You will be able to see quicker results as well due to the lack of jarring movement and the absence of large incisions.

Neck and face liposuction can be performed alone or in conjunction with a partial or full facelift procedure. Whether you are completing a full weight loss transformation or just aiming to slim and tone the addition of fat from your jawline that has developed over the years, these procedures have benefited many. They are minimally evasive liposuction techniques that sculpt your face shape and shrink your neck in the matter of one session.
