Neck liposuction is a common procedure that men go in for. Aging, weight gain, and genetics often result in fat accumulation under the chin and a saggy appearance to the jawline and jowls. Expert plastic surgeons offer minimally-invasive male neck laser liposuction in New York City to address these concerns. They use the laser-assisted Smartlipo Triplex workstation to perform the procedure and provide optimal results.
Neck laser liposuction in NYC removes excess neck fat and loose sagging skin that contribute to an overall loss of shape of the chin and neck. The procedure involves removal of excess fat, tightening of the skin, and reshaping neck contour to provide a more defined, youthful, attractive appearance. Neck liposuction can be performed alone or in conjunction with other procedures such as a neck lift and facelift.
Smartlipo Triplex has made liposuction a minimally invasive treatment, avoiding the side effects and downtime associated with traditional liposuction surgery. While getting liposuction can be exciting, having any type of surgery is a serious decision which can be intimidating for many people. Even though the procedure is minimally-invasive, proper preoperative preparation can go a long way in helping candidates obtain optimal results.
You need to prepare your body and mind for liposuction. Here are some pre-operative tips to prevent pre-surgery jitters:
- Get the mandatory pre-operative mandated tests and physical exam.
- Stop taking agents that can impede your body’s ability to clot 2 weeks prior to surgery. Do not take products containing aspirin, ibuprofen (ex. Advil, Motrin), or Vitamin E.
- Avoid sun tanning 2 weeks prior to surgery as doing so may increase the risk of permanent scarring.
- Avoid smoking and use of nicotine for at least four weeks before the treatment.
- Avoid alcoholic beverages for at least one week prior to surgery.
- Make sure that you tell your surgeon about all your current medications and any natural health products you take. This is important because certain medications inhibit blood clotting, cause too much blood clotting, or may interfere with anesthesia.
- Don’t stop taking your prescription medications unless you are advised to do so by your surgeon.
- If you color or perm your hair, hold off for one week prior to surgery and for three weeks after surgery.
- Take care to see that you are close to your target weight before your procedure.
- Depending upon the type of your job, plan to take one or two weeks off after the treatment.
- Get the things you would need following the procedure ready in advance and keep everything handy.
- Buy the recommended chin compression garment to wear after the procedure.
- Maintain a healthy diet and drink plenty of water in the weeks before your surgery, to ensure that your body has the nutrients it needs to support speedy recovery and longer lasting outcomes.
Any kind of surgery comes with risks and the body requires time to recover. There is a specific recovery time for most cosmetic procedures, but it may vary for each individual. So it’s important to know about the downtime that would be involved and make your plans accordingly. Proper after-care is important for neck laser liposuction in NYC. You need to follow your surgeon’s instructions to enjoy smooth recovery after liposuction.
Moreover, it’s important for you to know what Smartlipo laser liposuction in NYC can do for you and to have a clear understanding of the potential risks of the treatment. Not all people are good candidates for the procedure. Apart from being healthy and being close to their ideal body weight, candidates should be psychologically sound and have realistic expectations, a positive outlook, and specific body contouring goals. The procedure can provide optimal results for the ideal candidate and restore their self-confidence.
