Neck Liposuction Guide 0

May28

Neck liposuction is a cosmetic surgical procedure that targets the fats that have been deposited under a person’s chin. This is a very effective facial contouring solution especially for patients with tight skin and fatty deposit that is not deep.

Currently, there are a number of different procedures that a patient can consider.

The traditional approach is called tumescent liposuction. This procedure will first inject a chemical solution that comprise anesthesia and a blood vessel narrowing compound. Surgeons will then used hollow mini cannulas to extract the fats from the patient’s body. This procedure has proven to be effective but might cause injuries to the patient’s nerves and tissues if the surgeon is inexperienced.

A newer technique that is less damaging is called laser liposuction. It uses high heat from the laser to first liquidify the fats before removing using the cannulas. Due to the fats being melted, they are easier to extract and patients have less risk in suffering from internal injuries. This procedure is very ideal for neck lipo because of the precise nature of the laser which makes it well suited for a smaller  area like the neck.

Another new technique is called zerona laser liposuction. It is a non surgical procedure that uses a zerona machine to first stimulate the fatty acids in a patient’s body into moving into the empty spaces between the body cells. After which, the fatty acid can be removed from the body via sweating or through waste discharge.  It is a totally non invasive procedure but the results on its effectiveness is still being debated among surgeons.

In terms of prices, the cost of neck liposuction will depend on the type of procedures being chosen. Traditional and laser lipo will average around USD5,600 while the cost of zerona laser will be around USD2,5000.

Before selecting the procedure, it is advisable to consider all factors including effectiveness and costs.
