Facial liposuction is a cosmetic procedure designed to improve the face and neck’s contours by removing small quantities of excess fat tissue, providing a more defined and youthful appearance. At The Ocean Clinic Dermatology & Plastic Surgery in Newport Beach, facial liposuction is expertly performed by double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. David R. Reinstadler.
Benefits of Facial Liposuction
Using facial liposuction, Dr. Reinstadler can remove excess fat deposits from targeted areas of the face, such as the cheeks, chin, jawline, and neck. In many cases, facial liposuction is combined with other cosmetic treatments, like a facelift or neck lift, to further enhance those results.
Some of the key benefits of the facial liposuction procedure are:
- Slims and contours the lower and middle face in specific areas
- Enhances jawline definition and reduces the appearance of a double chin
- Improves overall facial symmetry and balance
- Targets fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise
- Minimally invasive with well-hidden incisions
- Can be combined with other procedures like a facelift or neck lift for more comprehensive results
- Provides long-lasting improvements with proper aftercare
Am I a Good Candidate for Facial Liposuction?
The ideal candidate for facial liposuction is someone who has good skin elasticity and is dealing with excess fat in the face or neck that hasn’t responded to weight loss efforts. Patients should be in good overall health, be non-smokers, and have realistic expectations about the results.
It is also important to discuss your medications (if applicable) during your consultation, as some might increase bleeding or swelling during surgery.
The Procedure
If your facial liposuction treatment in Orange County is being performed as a standalone procedure, we will likely utilize local anesthesia. A small incision is made under the chin and possibly one just behind the ear lobe. From those incisions, a small cannula is introduced, and the fat is selectively removed from these areas of concern.
After Facial Liposuction Surgery
During recovery, you will have an elastic strap around your head and neck to compress the swelling. You’ll wear this continuously for the first few days, then on and off for the next week or so. Any sutures are removed about a week later.
It takes a few months for the skin of the neck to “shrink wrap” back around the now smaller neck structure, so improvements will occur gradually over the next six months or so. Patients are usually able to return to work and normal daily activities within a week, but full recovery can take several weeks.
How Much Does Facial Liposuction Cost?
The cost of your treatment plan will depend on whether you are just receiving facial liposuction therapy or if it is being combined with another plastic surgery procedure. Factors influencing the price of facial contouring typically include the number of areas being treated and the exact techniques performed by Dr. Reinstadler.
