Liposuction surgery is performed to actually remove unwanted localized deposits of fat cells from the body. Originally, liposuction was designed for body contouring. Your Los Angeles plastic surgeon uses a special tube called a cannula. The cannula is inserted through a tiny incision placed in an inconspicuous location on the face or neck. Using a suction syringe or pump attached to the cannula, the fat cells are extracted.
The result is a resculpting of bulging areas into more attractive and more youthful facial contours. In younger patients, facial liposuction is often effective on its own. In older patients, it may produce optimal results when combined with a face lift, brow lift, eyelid surgery, or nose surgery. It is often performed with the addition of chin or cheek implants for better definition. At Marina Plastic Surgery in Los Angeles facial liposuction can make a dramatic change in the way you look by removing the excess fat from your cheeks, chin, and neck.
