What does Liposuction of the face mean?
Some patients have small areas of fat around the face, mostly at the neck under the chin, and in the folds between the bottom of the nose and the corners of the mouth. This fat is removed by liposuction with very small suction cannulae. Incisions can be made in hidden locations such as inside the nose, at the corner of the mouth and under the chin. Liposuction of the face is usually performed at the same time as a face lift. The most common areas to be treated are the neck and chin area.
