Neck liposuction with Renuvion is a minimally invasive facial contouring procedure designed to remove excess fat beneath the chin and tighten the skin of the neck. This advanced combination approach addresses both fullness and skin laxity to create a more defined jawline and smoother neck contour.
Patients seeking neck liposuction with skin tightening often want to reduce a double chin, improve jawline definition, and achieve a more youthful, sculpted appearance without a full neck lift.
What Is Neck Liposuction with Renuvion
This procedure combines neck liposuction with Renuvion skin tightening, allowing for both fat removal and tissue contraction.
It includes:
- Liposuction of the neck and submental area to remove excess fat
- Renuvion (helium plasma energy) to tighten skin beneath the surface
- Improved contour of the jawline and upper neck
This approach is ideal for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity who are not yet candidates for a full neck lift surgery.
How the Procedure Is Performed
During neck liposuction with Renuvion, small incisions are made beneath the chin or behind the ears to access the treatment area.
The procedure typically includes:
- Removal of excess fat using liposuction
- Delivery of controlled Renuvion energy under the skin to promote contraction
- Contouring of the jawline and neck for a smooth, natural appearance
The combination allows for enhanced results compared to liposuction alone.
Procedure Details
- Duration: 1–2 hours
- Anesthesia: General Anesthesia or Twilight Sedation
What It Can Help With
This procedure is ideal for patients seeking non-excisional neck contouring. It can help:
- Reduce a double chin (submental fullness)
- Improve jawline definition
- Tighten mild to moderate loose neck skin
- Enhance overall facial profile
- Delay or avoid the need for a full neck lift
Pre-Surgical Guidelines
To prepare for neck liposuction with Renuvion, patients should:
- Avoid nicotine for at least 4–6 weeks before and after treatment
- Stop blood-thinning medications as directed
- Maintain a stable weight
- Follow all pre-procedure instructions provided during consultation
What to Expect and After Care
Recovery from neck liposuction and Renuvion skin tightening is typically faster than traditional surgical procedures.
After the procedure:
- Swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort are expected
- Compression garments or chin straps may be used
- Temporary tightness or firmness may be felt as tissues contract
Patients should:
- Wear compression as directed
- Avoid strenuous activity for several weeks
- Keep the head elevated during early recovery
- Follow all post-procedure care instructions
- Attend all follow-up appointments
Recovery Timeline
- Initial recovery: 5–10 days
- Return to light activity: within 1 week
- Resume full activity: 3–4 weeks
- Continued skin tightening occurs over several months
Results
Neck liposuction with Renuvion provides noticeable improvement in neck contour and jawline definition, with both immediate fat reduction and progressive skin tightening.
Results appear as swelling subsides and continue to improve over time as collagen remodeling and tissue contraction occur.
Maintaining a stable weight helps preserve long-term results.
Consultation
This procedure is best suited for patients with excess fat and mild to moderate skin laxity. During your consultation, we will evaluate your anatomy and goals to determine whether neck liposuction with Renuvion tissue tightening or a more advanced neck lift is the most appropriate option.
