Before and after liposuction of the neck in a 35-year-old woman. She felt self-conscious about the fat under her neck which had accumulated after she became a mother. She hated taking family photos and was always self-critical about photos that showed her neck.
Liposuction was performed awake, under local anesthesia, with inhaled laughing gas and an oral anti-anxiety medication. Three incisions were required to reach all the areas under her chin - whereas other patients need one or two incisions, depending on their anatomy and their fat deposition area.
While she was initially worried about feeling pain during the procedure, after the numbing was injected and the area to be treated was completely numb, she actually laughed and carried on a lively conversation with us during surgery. She chose upbeat music and had a positive experience, expressing it was actually fun!
Follow up photos are shown 10 months after surgery, with mature scars and her final results. She now surprises her family, offering to take group photos without a second thought! She loves her results and is so happy she found us (and we are too). :)
