People who are concerned about their appearance rely on plastic surgery to correct flaws. A sagging, wrinkled neck and heavy chin are common aesthetic concerns that prompt people to get neck liposuction in Manhattan.
Aging or weight gain are the common reasons why fat tends to get deposited around the lower face, jaw and neck, resulting in the dreaded double chin. Neck liposuction can address this concern. The treatment also tightens the neck and the jawline and provides a more youthful facial appearance.
With age fat accumulates along the jawline and below the chin, creating a double chin effect and it also leads the neck to lose its natural curve as extra fat is deposited in this area. It’s usually difficult to lose that extra fat from the neck area through exercise and dieting. Neck liposuction is an ideal option to get rid of that extra flab from the neck area and achieve a well-defined jawline.
Neck Liposuction Using Laser-assisted Smartlipo
Neck liposuction using the Smartlipo Triplex device is a minimally-invasive procedure that can improve the neck profile and restore definition – without surgery.
The SmartLipo Triplex uses laser lipolysis technology to break up and dissolve fat cells in the neck area without damaging the surrounding tissue. It uses three separate laser wavelengths (1440, 1064 and 1320 nm) that allow for much more precise targeting of stubborn fat deposits in the neck area. The heat from the laser energy also encourages growth of new collagen and elastin proteins, and tightens the skin.
The procedure can be performed under local anesthesia. Small incisions are made under the earlobe to access the fatty deposits. The surgeon will insert the tiny laser-assisted cannula to target and liquefy the fat deposits, which allows them to be easily suctioned off.
There may be some bruising, swelling or discomfort in the neck area, but these side effects get resolved within a few days. After the surgery, you will be advised to wear a chin strap during the day and at night for the first three days. This allows the skin to reattach to the underlying tissues without interference of any fluid buildup. This helps reduce swelling and relieves pain, and also promotes good outcomes.
Most patients get back to their daily routine quickly. You will be instructed to avoid strenuous activities and heavy exercises like running or weightlifting for the first few weeks. Be sure to follow the surgeon’s post treatment guidelines to recover quickly and you will be able to see the impressive outcomes of the procedure a few weeks later. It is important to maintain and healthy lifestyle to maintain the results of the treatment.
Neck liposuction in Manhattan is a safe and effective option to address aesthetic concerns related to the chin and neck and improve your overall facial profile. Make sure that you choose an experienced liposuction surgeon and have your procedure performed in an AAAASF-accredited plastic surgery practice.
