Liposuction Of The Face

Liposuction is a technique that uses suction to improve body contour by removing excess fat from specific areas of the body.

Liposuction of excess fatty tissue of the face can be done at the same time as other procedures on the face, using the same incisions, or independently.

Liposuction is most often used on the face to remove a double chin and fatty deposits from the cheeks or neck. Fat is removed from the face under suction, through a narrow tube called a cannula, allowing the skin to lie flatter.
