Liposuction is a surgical procedure that uses a suction technique to remove fat from specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, arms, or neck. Liposuction also shapes (contours) these areas. Other names for liposuction include lipoplasty and body contouring.
Neck Liposuction removes excess fat to sculpt a more refined jawline. Liposuction allows Dr. Parker to remove fat from the subcutaneous tissue layer of the neck and sculpt a more youthful, contoured neck and jawline. Our practitioners are readily available
Types of neck liposuction
Tumescent liposuction is almost the same as super-wet liposuction. The difference is that the super-wet technique uses less fluid than tumescent liposuction. This type of liposuction is the most common, but it also takes more time.
Laser-assisted liposuction liquefies fat cells using lasers. The surgeon vacuums out the cells or the liquid drains through a series of tubes. This type of liposuction works best for acute areas like the face, chin, or neck.
Ultrasound-assisted liposuction liquefies fat in the same way as laser-assisted, but it does so with ultrasonic vibrations instead of lasers. It's perfect for adults who want to lose a bit of stubborn fat fast and can be used on all areas of the body such as the stomach, thighs, love handles, and neck. It's also a great route to take when treating gynecomastia (a feminine male chest), and safely collecting the good fats without damaging them when transferring fat to the buttocks or breasts.
We mainly use Vaser; minimally invasive, ultrasound-assisted liposuction. This is an advanced form of liposuction used to gently remove excess, unwanted fat from the body. This is more of a body sculpting procedure that helps tighten the skin at the same time as suctioning out the fat.
