Neck Liposculpture

Neck Liposculpture is an effective minor procedure to treat sagging neck. It removes fat and tightens the skin around the neck to restore efficiently neck contour. Neck Liposculpture is also known as microliposuction. It is performed without making incisions. The surgeon usually make three small punctures at the back of earlobes and beneath the chin. The execution of the procedure takes about thirty minutes.

Procedure

The patient who is supposed to undergo the surgery is rendered unconscious with an anesthesia. A local anesthesia may be administered to the patient. The very delicate incisions are made at the back of each earlobe and underneath the chin. The surgeon applies an anesthetic solution of dilute lidocaine on the fatty areas of the neck. The effects of the solution come to the surface after about thirty minutes. This advanced technique of anesthesia eliminates the pain during and even after the procedure.

The surgeon meticulously cuts off the fat and removes it by using small instruments attached to suction. No fluid flows out of the portion under treatment. And so, no tube is used. The incision points are closed and dressed lightly with sterile bandage for three days. It is recommended to wear loose and soft garment for a few days after the surgery.

Recovery

The patient soon returns to the normal walk of daily life after the treatment. The patient experiences least pain and minimal discomfort at the postoperative stage. In case, pain arises, the surgeon prescribes pain-killing medications. Swelling at the operative part of the neck is mild and disappears rapidly within two or three weeks. No lack of energy is felt. The doctor removes the stitches on the third day after the operation. The only restriction for the patient is to wear loose garment.

Advantages

The best advantage of Neck Liposculpture is the neck with no once of flab. The operation removes the sagging skin and fatty tissues of the neck. As a result, the neck appears well structured and well developed with a nice outline. In case of this procedure, the recovery is faster and shorter. Almost no discomfort after the surgery is another advantage of the procedure. The patient is kept under no restriction regarding food and movement. Above all, the operation turns up successfully.

Disadvantages

The unavoidable disadvantages of neck Liposculpture are persistent swelling and skin laxity around the neck. This method of neck treatment involves a risk of unevenness. In case of loose or sagging skin after the operation, gentle massage of skin-tanning oil will help. Otherwise, the patient may be required to undergo the treatment again.
