Neck Lipo-Contouring

Sometimes the lifting of tissues with a facelift or necklift is not necessary to achieve the appearance of a more youthful and attractive neck and jawline. If you are concerned about excess fatty tissue in your neck or a “double chin” without excessive skin laxity or sun damage, Lipo-Contouring of the neck may be an excellent solution for you.

What is Neck Lipo-Contouring?

In addition to his facelift and necklift procedures, Dr. Pruitt may offer his Dallas clients Lipo-Contouring or Liposculpture of the neck, either as an enhancement to one of these other procedures or as a stand-alone option. Sometimes younger patients with genetic fullness or a “double chin” but good skin quality are ideal candidates for precision liposuction or liposculpture alone. In other cases, with more advanced aging, micro-liposuction of some targeted areas of facial fat may enhance the neck or jawline to complete a more comprehensive rejuvenation plan. With his extensive experience and eye for beauty, Dr. Pruitt can make specific recommendations for your neck anatomy and individual goals.

How the Lipo-Contouring Procedure Works

Precision Liposuction or Lipo-Contouring is an effective method to target specific treatment areas like the neck, chin, and jawline in younger patients. Many patients are under the impression that diet and exercise will be sufficient to address these issues and are dismayed to notice that excess areas of fat remain in the chin or neck despite their best efforts at the gym. In addition, some patients have already tried Kybella injections or Cool Sculpt before being referred to Dr. Pruitt for chin or neck contouring.

The techniques that Dr. Pruitt can utilize are varied depending upon your unique anatomical needs. Some procedures only require tiny incisions behind the earlobes and under the chin to achieve an improved shape and contour to your neck. These procedures can be performed alone or sometimes are combined with other aesthetic surgical procedures.

Recovery and Results

One of the most popular aspects of the Lipo-Contouring or Precision Liposuction procedure is that it comes with a relatively brief recovery period. You will be able to recover quickly, but you will still need to give your body the rest it deserves.

During your recovery period, you will usually experience at least some swelling in the treatment area. You may be asked to wear a compression garment to help you keep the area smooth during the first few days. Dr. Pruitt will follow you closely to evaluate your progress. You may be able to return to most normal activities in a few days.
