Jowl Liposuction Our Treatment
What is Jowl Liposuction?
A sagging appearance occurs due to the accumulation of fat under the chin due to aging or losing too much weight. Some people may have jowls, even if they are weak. It is not possible to burn/eliminate the fat in the jowl by exercising or dieting. Doctors recommend the jowl liposuction procedure to eliminate the fat in the jowl. Anyone who has fat in jowl can have this procedure done.
How Is Jowl Liposuction Performed?
Patients who plan to have jowl liposuction should maintain a stable weight for at least six months. In addition, that the patient is at his/her ideal weight ensures a more positive outcome for the surgery. The doctor measures the skin thickness, tension and the thickness of the adipose tissue of the patient's jowl before the operation. If the patient has significant sagging, neck lifting surgery is recommended.
The doctor marks the neck area on which liposuction will be performed with a pen. Jowl liposuction is performed under general anesthesia. Thin cannulas are inserted in the jowl area and excess fat is removed. This process takes approximately 30 minutes. Following the operation, the doctor bandages this area.
What Should Be Done After Jowl Liposuction?
After the jowl liposuction procedure, the instruction of the doctor should be followed. The presence of edema and swelling is normal on the first day. These will disappear in a few days. It is generally recommended that the patient wear a bandage for three days in order for the jowl to take its new shape. In addition, there is no scar after this procedure.
