Neck Liposuction

Neck liposuction is the process of removing fat cells from the neck region of the body. The process is supposed to help create a firm, trim looking neck that offers a more youthful look over other products. The procedure is performed in the crease that is located just under the chin and behind the ear lobes. A thin tube is placed into the fatty area. The tube, also called a cannual, is then used to break up the fatty deposits that are located in this area. It is also used to sculpt the area to give the desired look. Once the unwanted fat is removed using a high pressure vacuum, the skin, muscles, blood vessels and nerves are left intact and untouched.
