Neck Liposuction/Lift involves the insertion of a fine ultrasound probe 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 basically eliminates the need for a lift surgery, as the neckline is picked up and smoothed.

This new technology involves the use of an ultra-thin fibre that is placed just below the surface of the skin. The laser 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.

Neck Liposuction/Lift takes about 1 hour and is carried out under twilight sedation. Consequently, because general anaesthesia isn’t used, the procedure is considered more safe with minimal side effects or pain. After the treatment, patients can usually get back to their routine activities within a day or two. 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.

Results are generally seen after 6 weeks once all swelling has subsided.

There are inherent risks and complications as there are with any surgery. You should be aware of the potential risks and discuss any concerns you may have with your doctor before your surgery is performed.
