Facial liposuction is a popular procedure that is performed on a daily basis for a total of 258,558 procedures in 2018 alone, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. And the reason is that everyone has unwanted pockets of fat in the cheeks, chin and neck that often will not go away even with a good diet and regular exercise.
One of the most visible areas is the double chin, which can be caused by weight, hereditary factors, or airway positioning. Even thin individuals can experience drooping skin around the jawline. People feel self-conscious about their neckline and being stuck with a turkey neck. Submental liposuction takes fat away from beneath your skin and sculpts your chin and neck contour. It goes a long way to helping people feel better about how they look.
Facial liposuction is a common procedure in large part because our face is how others see us, and consequently, how we see ourselves. It makes sense to want a more naturally sculpted and refined facial appearance. By reducing areas of fullness, it contours your face and gives you a more youthful appearance. When it comes to facial liposuction in Miami, Zuri Plastic Surgery can provide you with a more sculpted neck and a rejuvenated appearance.
If you are looking to get rid of your double chin, jowls or “turkey-wattle” neck, you are definitely a good candidate for facial liposuction. You should be in good physical health, be a non-smoker, have good skin elasticity and enough fat deposits. You should have realistic expectations about what a facial liposuction may or may not be able to do for you.
Yes, facial liposuction can be combined with other procedures such as chin or cheek augmentation, fat grafting, blepharoplasty and neck lift.
The results are immediate, and since those fat cells will not grow back if you maintain a stable weight this procedure is considered long-lasting. Your final results can take several months while your skin tightens and heals up. But it will be worth it as your incisions should be barely visible and your facial profile will appear slimmer and rejuvenated.
Facial liposuctions are routinely done safely every day. It is true that no surgery is risk-free and some potential complications can include a bad reaction to anesthesia, bleeding, bruising, hematoma, infection, loose skin, numbness, seroma, small scars, and swelling. There is a very minor risk of change in pigmentation, nerve damage or loss of sensation. The complications from facial liposuction are lower than those of liposuction of the body and many other surgical procedures.
