What is it for?
Improves the contour of the neck, reducing the amount of fat
What does it mean?
Liposuction, as the name indicates, corresponds to a surgical procedure with fat suction through the insertion of cannulas in small holes in the skin. It thus allows reducing the volume of neck fat provided that it is in a moderate amount, because the setback is the excess skin and subsequent sagging if too much fat is removed. In such cases, the association of a neck lift with additional liposuction gives a much more harmonious and balanced result
