Neck Liposuction in Plano, TX
What is neck liposuction?
When fat resides in the neck, it can give an individual a “double chin” appearance. Dr. Yaker and Dr. Haidenberg are Plano, TX cosmetic surgeons offering patients the opportunity to have a slimmer, sleeker neck, accomplished with liposuction. This procedure has the ability to garner excellent improvements to the appearance of the neck and profile. Patients with loose and sagging skin may require a neck lift, while those born with limited bone support may be better candidates for a chin implant or genioplasty. Dr. Haidenberg and Dr. Yaker will provide a thorough assessment to determine if neck liposuction will be enough to attain the desired results.

Contact UsHow does neck liposuction work?
During liposuction, a small incision will be made just below the chin and excess fat will be removed from the neck through a cannula. Most surgeons prefer to use the tumescent (“superwet”) liposuction technique. During this approach at our Plano, TX office, a liquid made up of saline, a numbing agent and a substance that controls bleeding will be injected. This procedure may be a stand-alone procedure but, in most cases, it used in unison with the neck lift.
Can I add a neck lift?
Once the fat has been removed from the neck, incisions are made under the chin and near the ears to allow the surgeon access to the neck muscles. At this time, the muscles will be pulled tight and the overlying skin will be stretched and re-draped over the neck so the desired definition and contour is attained. A drain may be placed under the skin to help collect fluid and blood, but this drain is usually removed within 24-48 hours. If a combination procedure is taking place, such as a facelift, the neck lift will most likely occur after the facelift has been completed.

What is recovery from neck liposuction like?
All neck liposuction procedures are performed in an accredited surgical facility under general anesthesia. Following surgery, patients will wear a compression garment to control swelling. Patients who have a combined surgery of neck liposuction plus a lift will have a longer recovery period. During the first follow-up visit, when all bandages are removed, patients will be able to see the results immediately.

About UsNeck Liposuction FAQs
Does neck liposuction leave a scar?
Scarring with liposuction is very minimal. The incisions will range from keyhole punch marks to very small lines and usually are not an issue with this procedure.
How much fat is removed?
Liposuction removes both small and large amounts of fat. Patients that have a small, yet distinct bulge residing just under the chin will benefit greatly from this procedure. The removal of this fatty bulge should be fairly straightforward.
Does the fat grow back?
The fat cells removed during liposuction do not come back. However, patients that gain weight after surgery are at risk of regaining fat because the remaining cells left behind can expand and become larger. Patients that adhere to a healthy diet and exercise program will continue to see results years after their surgery.
