Neck Liposuction & Neck Contouring in North Shore
Neck liposuction in North Shore, MA, is a cosmetic procedure used to contour the neck and eliminate a double chin. Excess neck fat can cause a person to look out of shape or older than they really are. It is also very stubborn, and weight-loss options like diet and exercise cannot guarantee the loss of fat in specific parts like the neck.
Neck lipo offers effective contouring, ensuring that fat cells are removed permanently from the region. It also allows the surgeon to make sure that the look of the neck complements the appearance of the face.

Am I a good candidate for neck liposuction?
The neck lipo procedure is a specialized form of liposuction meant for people with a double chin or excess fat in the neck. It is best for patients who have realistic expectations and are non-smokers, since smoking prolongs the healing process.
Neck lipo is suitable for patients with adequate skin tone and muscle tone; patients who lack these will need a neck lift to tighten loose skin and muscle tissue. This is why the procedure is generally undergone by patients ages 20 to 50 with elastic skin. After age 50, the skin has typically lost a great deal of elasticity. Neck liposuction will not yield satisfactory results in such a case.
Your Neck Liposuction Consultation
During your consultation, Dr. Hadaegh will answer any of your questions, discuss your goals and concerns, and will present all of your treatment options. Your eligibility for a neck liposuction will be based on your goals, overall health, medical history, and a thorough physical examination. This examination will also ensure that Dr. Hadaegh can best customize your treatment plan. A comprehensive review of the candidate’s medical history will be done to ensure a clear understanding of any potential contraindications or health considerations related to the neck liposuction procedure
Preparing for Neck Liposuction surgery
Prior to the neck lipo procedure, a consultation with Dr. Hadaegh is needed to evaluate the patient’s skin condition and general health. During this consultation, the patient will tell Dr. Hadaegh about their aesthetic goals for the surgery and can ask any questions they may have.
Smokers must stop smoking a few months before the procedure and must avoid smoking during the healing process. Blood thinners should also be stopped before the procedure since these can cause complications.
the procedure
This is an outpatient procedure and begins with the administration of local anesthesia. When required, IV sedation is used. Dr. Hadaegh then makes small incisions under the chin and/or below the ears.
A cannula (a thin tube with a sharp end) is inserted into an incision. The fat cells are loosened using the sharp end of the cannula, and medical suction is used to remove them through the cannula. The incisions are then closed and dressed appropriately.

Is neck liposuction painful?
Neck liposuction is not a painful procedure. Since liposuction is performed under either general or local anesthesia, the patient will not feel pain during the surgery. There may be soreness afterwards once the anesthesia fully wears off, and this can be addressed with painkillers as prescribed.
Does neck liposuction leave incision marks?
Neck liposuction requires the creation of very tiny incisions. Dr. Hadaegh’s high degree of skill and experience allows him to effectively camouflage any post-surgical marks. He will also provide aftercare instructions to further minimize their appearance.
Does neck liposuction permanently remove fat?
Neck liposuction permanently removes fat cells from the body. Unfortunately, because it is impossible to remove every fat cell from an area, the remaining fat cells can still swell in size. To avoid this, follow Dr. Hadaegh’s recommendations for lifestyle changes, proper diet, and regular exercise. A healthy lifestyle and avoiding or limiting weight gain will prevent changes in liposuction results.
How much does neck liposuction surgery Cost?
The cost of neck liposuction is impacted by a number of factors. The price of this surgery varies depending on the amount of fat removed from the area, the time needed to perform the procedure, and several other factors.
Can I finance neck liposuction surgery?
Yes! Our patients often use Care Credit to finance the cost of their procedures. We also accept all major credit cards.
Will insurance cover my neck liposuction surgery?
Typically, no. Neck liposuction is generally considered a cosmetic procedure and therefore not medically necessary. It’s best to check with your specific insurance company if you have additional questions about your coverage.
