Neck Liposuction near Orange County, CA

A double chin, also known as submental fat, is a common condition created by excess fat in the neck. During neck liposuction surgery at Dr. Corbin Plastic Surgery, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Frederic Corbin removes unwanted fat from the neck. This helps to address jowls and the appearance of a double chin. Neck liposuction helps to create a more defined jawline, throat, and smooth appearance by strengthening muscles and reducing soft tissue. Neck liposuction can extract small or large pockets of fat or large treatment areas. It's a great alternative for women and men who desire a slimmer neckline.

The ideal candidates for neck liposuction at Dr. Corbin Plastic Surgery are those looking to remove unwanted fat from their neck and jawline to create a thinner appearance. Large and small pockets of fats can generally be successfully removed. Patients who maintain a healthy routine with good diet and exercise are most likely to maintain lasting results. If you also have excess or sagging skin on your neck, you may be a candidate for skin tightening surgery either alone or in conjunction with neck lipo.

Neck liposuction surgery at Dr. Corbin Plastic Surgery is an outpatient procedure using general anesthesia and can be performed rather quickly. For neck lipo, Dr. Corbin will use a cannula to remove the excess fat after making a tiny incision beneath the jawline. In some cases, he will employ the tumescent, or "superwet" technique, in which a numbing solution is combined with another substance and used during the surgery to help minimize bleeding. The incision will then be carefully sewn closed. Neck lipo can be performed on its own, but many patients choose to have it completed alongside another surgery, such as a facelift or neck lift, to enhance their aesthetic results.

You may be required to wear compression garments after surgery to help control swelling. Downtime varies and may be lengthened if other plastic surgeries were performed simultaneously. Final results will be visible a few months after surgery. We may advise you not to put weight on the surgery site for the first week. Due to the small incision site, scarring tends to be minimal and easily concealable.

Dr. Corbin is pleased to offer neck liposuction to help you gain more confidence in your overall appearance. This personalized cosmetic procedure can be a wonderful way to address difficult pockets of fat in the neck, chiseling the neckline to improve the appearance of a double chin.
