At The Cohen Clinic for Plastic Surgery in McLean, Virginia, we offer neck liposuction as one of our premier body contouring services. This procedure is designed to remove excess fat from the neck area, creating a more defined jawline and a sleeker profile. Neck liposuction is a minimally invasive solution that helps you achieve a more sculpted appearance while maintaining the natural harmony of your facial features.
Neck liposuction is a cosmetic procedure that removes stubborn fat deposits from the neck and under the chin. This excess fat can contribute to a “double chin” or thicker neck appearance, which may be undesirable for those seeking a more slender, youthful profile. Removing these fat pockets makes the neck slimmer, and the jawline becomes more defined. The procedure is minimally invasive and provides long-lasting results, enhancing your overall facial contours.
Ideal candidates for neck liposuction are individuals with excess fat in the neck or under the chin and who want a more defined and contoured neckline. This procedure is best suited for those in good health, non-smokers, and with realistic expectations about the results. It is an excellent option for patients close to their ideal body weight but struggle with fat deposits in the neck area that do not respond to diet or exercise. During a consultation, Dr. Cohen will assess your anatomy to determine if neck liposuction is right for you.
Neck liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure performed typically under local anesthesia or light sedation. Dr. Cohen will make a small incision beneath the chin or behind the ears to access and remove the excess fat. The incisions are discreet and strategically placed to ensure minimal visible scarring. The procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the patient’s needs, and patients can return home the same day, making it a convenient option for neck contouring with minimal downtime.
Recovery from neck liposuction is short-term, with most patients experiencing mild swelling, bruising, or discomfort in the days following the procedure. Dr. Cohen will provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. Most swelling subsides within one to two weeks, revealing a more defined and contoured neck and jawline. Patients can expect to see the full results of the procedure within a few months as the area continues to heal and the neck settles into its new shape. Neck liposuction offers long-lasting results, enhancing your confidence and appearance.
At The Cohen Clinic patients receive more than just rejuvenating surgical and cosmetic treatments. Dr. Justin Cohen takes the time to truly understand his patients and their unique goals. He gives honest recommendations and believes every result should be natural and personalized.
