THE RESULTS
This technology involves the use of ultrasound placed just below the surface of the skin. to melt the fat cells and tighten the skin. The eultrasound energy heats up the all-important “collagen and elastin” fibres and causes them to contract. Simultaneously, the probe melts small fatty deposits and suctions it out of the body as a form of fat removal. Results of the surgery continue to improve over the following 6 to 12 weeks post-surgery. You will also see a significant improvement to the overall skin quality.
THE PROCEDURE
Neck Liposuction/Lift involves the insertion of a fine ultrasound probe (vaser) under the skin. The Vaser probe uses ultrasound energy to melt fat cells and tighten the collagen fibres underneath the skin. This results in an improvement in the jawline and neck area – removing excess fat and tightening sagging skin. The major advantage of this Neck Liposuction/Lift treatment is that it eliminates fat deposits whilst tightening your skin at the very same time. This tightening effect can eliminates the need for a lift surgery, in those with thick skin.
Neck Liposuction/Lift treatment prices vary depending on your overall situation and expectations.
Your initial Neck Liposuction/Lift consultation and subsequent procedure can be undertaken at one of our cosmetic clinics in Australia. We also treat many interstate and overseas patients each year at Cosmos Clinic. Therefore, we have set procedures in place for those travelling to our clinics for treatment. For travelling patients please use the contact form located at the bottom of this page to send us images of the areas you wish to have treated, which Cosmos Clinic you’d like treatment at, and where you’re located in the description so our staff can include all the appropriate information for travelling patients as part of your personalised quote.
The procedure takes about 1 hour and is carried out under twilight sedation. After the treatment, patients can usually get back to their routine activities within a day or two. The pain can be controlled with panadol. You will have swelling for about 3 to 7 days post-op with minimal bruising (although this may vary from patient to patient). You will also need to wear a compression garment for 3 days full time, and then another 7 days part time. This treatment will result in a permanent change in your neck shape so that when you put on weight it is less likely to reaaccumulate in the neck.
The complications include temporary (3-6 months) nerve injury which will effect your smile in less than one percent of cases and skin irregularities.

A double chin is often genetically acquired. If your father or mother have a double chin you are more likely to have one. As we age, the skin tends to lose collagen fibres and the skin begins to sag. The result is often a heavy-looking neck and the appearance of an undefined jawline and double chin. If this is of concern to you, Vaser liposuction ican help tighten the skin and remove the fat cells
At Cosmos Clinic, we use Vaser technology for all of our liposuction procedures. This offers a number of benefits over traditional liposuction, including:
Since neck liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure, no hospital stay is required, and you can return home within a few hours after surgery. Mild pain and discomfort are common after neck liposuction, however, your doctor will prescribe medications to help relieve this. To minimise swelling and promote healing, you will need to wear a compression garment full time for around three days and then nightly for another week. We also recommend that you sleep with your head elevated for at least one weeks after surgery to help reduce the swelling.
Ultimately, recovery from liposuction to the neck is relatively quick, and most patients can return to work after 3-5 days. To optimise healing, become familiar with the do’s of liposuction recovery:
We understand that cost plays a major role in your decision to have cosmetic surgery. However, every patient is different, and the cost of your neck liposuction procedure can vary depending on factors such as:
At Cosmos Clinic, our neck liposuction procedures start at $5,500. However, if you wish to treat other areas of the face, such as the cheeks or chin, or combine your procedure with body liposuction, you can expect this price to increase. If you would like a more accurate neck liposuction quote, please get in touch to organise a consultation with one of our Cosmos Clinic doctors.
At Cosmos Clinic, we’re all about liposuction. In the last ten years, we’ve performed over 20,000 liposuction and fat transfer procedures Australia-wide. We were even the first practice in New South Wales to own a Vaser Liposuction machine, which we now use to reduce excess fat and reverse signs of age in the neck.
Vaser is an advanced method of liposuction that offers a gentler approach than traditional liposuction techniques. This technique uses ultrasound energy to break apart fat cells and tighten the skin. During the procedure, an ultrasound probe is inserted into the fat layer to heat and liquefy fat cells, which makes them easier to remove from the neck. With Vaser liposuction, patients can expect less pain and faster recovery times.
You will be placed under twilight sedation during your neck liposuction procedure. To further numb the neck and prevent bleeding during surgery, your Cosmos Clinic doctor will inject a saline solution mixed with a local anaesthetic into the treatment area. Once you are numb, your doctor insert the Vaser probe, which is moved back and forth to heat and liquefy the unwanted fat cells. The generated heat will also contract collagen fibres to tighten any lax skin. Once your fat cells are liquified, your doctor will use a cannula to suction the fat out of your neck.
If you fit the following criteria, you may be a potential candidate for liposuction to the neck:
Ultimately, the best way to determine whether you are suitable for this procedure is to organise a consultation with our Cosmos Clinic doctors.
When you come in for a consultation, your Cosmos Clinic doctor will provide clear pre-operative instructions. To avoid surgical complications, such as bleeding and prolonged healing, you will be asked to avoid certain medications and supplements. We also recommend taking steps before surgery to ensure your recovery is as smooth as possible. This could include purchasing some comfortable clothing, and arranging for someone to pick you up from the hospital after surgery.
Your neck liposuction procedure will be performed under twilight sedation and local anaesthesia, so you should not feel any pain or discomfort. While post-operative discomfort is to be expected, you can alleviate this with medications prescribed by your doctor.
Swelling after liposuction to the neck is very common, even if you wear your compression garment correctly. While you will notice a slimmer neck after around a week, it can take several weeks for swelling to fully subside. The swelling settles rather quickly because the neck is above the heart. Over time, your results will gradually improve, with your final result being visible at around six months.
Once fat cells are removed, they will not return. Its harder to gain weight in the treated area. However, your remaining fat cells can still expand, which is why we recommend maintaining your post-lipo weight after surgery. You should also keep in mind that liposuction does not prevent further ageing, so you will likely experience further sagging skin and neck bands over time.
Vaser liposuction uses ultrasound heat to melt fat cells, which has the added advantage of stimulating new collagen. As such, sagging skin is rare after neck liposuction, as the procedure actually promotes tighter, firmer skin. We consider vaser liposuction to be the ultimate neck rejuvenation procedure, as it both reduces stubborn fat and tightens lax skin.
Neck liposuction has a much quicker recovery than body liposuction for two reasons. Firstly, their is less fat that removed during the procedure and secondly the swelling in the neck subsides faster as the neck sits above the heart. Your doctor will only remove a few ounces of fat during your neck liposuction procedure, while body liposuction usually removes several litres.
Overall, Vaser liposuction is associated with fewer complications than traditional liposuction. However, there are still some potential risks to be aware of, including:
