Liposuction of the Face

    /24-7PressRelease/ - March 01, 2008 - Facial or sub-mental liposuction is the removal of fat from the problem areas in and around your face. The surgery also tightens your skin for a smooth, youthful appearance. Facial liposuction can be used alone or in conjunction with other procedures, like a chin implant, to complete your new look.

A highly trained and artistic plastic surgeon will use a special tube called a cannula and insert it into a subtle incision on your neck or face. Using suction, he'll remove the fat from your desired areas. Many of these facial liposuction procedures remove small amounts of fat, but produce remarkable results.
The fat loss during this procedure is permanent. Your body will not produce many more facial fat cells in your lifetime, so it is uncommon that you will regain weight in your treated areas.

While the procedure is usually performed in less than an hour, recovery time is often several weeks. During healing, your diet may also be modified or restricted to reduce your risk of post-operative complications.
