Do I qualify for face and neck liposuction?

Face and neck liposuction is suitable for those who have a natural excess of fat deposits under the chin, along the jawline, or in the neck. For older clients, it may be used together with other procedures to account for greater skin laxity in addition to fat deposit repositioning. Dr. Verma will be able to discuss this with you at your consultation.

Who is a good candidate for face and neck liposuction?

Ideal candidates for face and neck liposuction are those under 55 years, as the areas of the face and neck that are treated will naturally change with age, and the skin’s natural elasticity is needed to retract and conform to its newly contoured shape.

What to expect during the consultation?

During your consultation, Dr. Verma will discuss what it is you hope to achieve from face and neck liposuction and may recommend complementary surgical or non-surgical procedures to achieve the aesthetic goals you are seeking. When you come for your consultation, we ask that you please avoid wearing make-up or sunscreen to allow for a correct analysis of your face and skin.

It’s very useful for you to bring close-up photographs of a younger you to the appointment as this will assist Dr. Verma in understanding what you hope to achieve from your procedure.

Please note that Dr. Verma will take photographs during your consultation. Photography is vital in the cosmetic surgery experience and allows Dr. Verma to document and share with you your progress pre- and post-operatively. Such pre and post images help other potential patients like yourself to decide whether this is the right procedure for them.
