Just as pockets of fat can accumulate throughout the body, they can also deposit in places that are harder to conceal, such as the cheeks, chin, or neck.
While exercise and a healthy diet are the most effective tools for ridding the body of fat, there are some stubborn areas of our body where fat can accumulate and no matter what you do you just can’t get rid of due to genetics or the natural aging process. The face is an area on our bodies that we cannot exercise or tone, so what do we do to eliminate the fat that deposits there?
Facial liposuction can help women and men remove this unwanted face or neck fat. Removing this excess fat can lead to more refined and appealing facial features by improving the angle between the chin and neck.
At Elite Facial Plastic Surgery, we strive to provide you with a simple yet fulfilling experience.

Dr. Dominic is a facial plastic surgeon who will meet with you one-on-one to discuss your goals and cosmetic procedure options for improving your appearance.
Face and neck liposuction is similar to the liposuction procedure performed elsewhere on the body except it is smaller in scale. The Tampa facial liposuction procedure is smaller in scale since the area treated is smaller and a smaller amount of facial fat is removed, usually only a few ounces.
A facial liposuction involves a small incision underneath the chin or just in front of the ear lobes. Then, a cannula (a small metal tube) is inserted into the incision to suction out the fat cells. So long as the patient maintains a healthy and normal weight, the excess fat cells will never regrow, making the Tampa cosmetic facial liposuction procedure permanent.
If a patient gains a significant amount of weight, another facial liposuction procedure from Elite Facial Plastic Surgery may be necessary, however this is rare. A facial liposuction from Dr. Dominic is a safe procedure that produces dramatic results.
A facial liposuction of the chin, neck and jowls can actually produce better results than an invasive facelift. Cosmetic surgeons in Tampa like Dr. Dominic believe that this facial liposuction is a more desirable option because there is minimal scarring and recovery time in comparison to other procedures.
It is imperative the procedure is performed at an accredited cosmetic surgery facility since there will be some minor bruising, swelling, and bleeding at the incision point. Once the procedure is completed and enough time has passed for recovery, patients will notice a smooth, well defined, and significantly more youthful appearance.
In some cases, facial liposuction can be paired with a facelift procedure or neck lift procedure to enhance the skin tightening results. These procedures are sometimes necessary for older patients that have lost elasticity of the facial skin.
If you are interested in having facial liposuction in the Tampa area, schedule a complimentary consultation at Elite Facial Plastic Surgery today, to learn more about the procedure. Facial liposuction will leave you feeling confident and beautiful with your new found youthful appearance.
The decision to undergo a face or neck liposuction procedure can vary depending on individual circumstances. It is generally recommended for individuals who have localized fat deposits in the face or neck area that are resistant to diet and exercise.
Additionally, people who desire a more defined jawline, reduced double chin, improved angle between the chin and neck, or reduced overall fullness in the face may consider face or neck liposuction.
Ideal candidates for face or neck liposuction typically include individuals with excess fat in the face or neck area who are in good overall health and have optimal skin elasticity. Candidates should also have realistic expectations for their outcomes and plan to maintain a healthy lifestyle post-procedure to help maintain their results.
It’s important to note that the suitability for face or neck liposuction can vary depending on individual factors like medical history or prescription medications. Consulting with an experienced facial plastic surgeon is essential to assessing your specific situation and determining if you are an ideal candidate for the procedure.

The typical cost of neck liposuction in Tampa, FL, ranges from $3,000-$6,000. This price varies based on the complexity of the procedure and the type of procedure your facial plastic surgeon uses. During your consultation, Dr. Dominic will talk with you about your neck liposuction procedure and the related costs for a more accurate estimate.
The benefits of face and neck liposuction may include*:
To begin face and neck liposuction, small incisions are made beneath the chin and/or in front of the earlobes. Then, a small metal tube, called a cannula, is inserted beneath the skin. The cannula acts as a suction that removes fat cells.
Once this is performed, the incisions are closed. Once fat cells are removed, they never grow back, but they may enlarge with weight gain. Results are permanent if the patient’s weight remains stable. All patients receive treatment in our Tampa state of the art fully accredited facility.
After face and neck liposuction your skin will shrink, creating a smooth, well defined, more youthful appearance. If you have an abundance of excess and loose skin due to weight loss, or your skin has lost its elasticity due to age, you may also require a skin tightening procedure such as a facelift in Tampa to achieve the look you desire.

Neck / Face Liposuction can give your face, neck, and jaw line more definition, restoring your youthful appearance. It can reduce jowls, double chin, turkey neck, and overall puffiness in your face. It helps to create definition in the cheeks and jaw line, and to improve the angle between your chin and neck.
A neck lift includes liposuction and also tightens the muscles in the neck. If the muscles in your neck are not weak or sagging, then you do not need a neck lift.
A face lift tightens sagging skin. If you have adequate skin elasticity and do not have an abundance of excess skin, your skin will shrink on its own to accommodate the contours created by liposuction.
