Neck Lipoplasty (Lipo + Renuvion)

What Is Lipoplasty with Neck Tightening?

This treatment removes stubborn submental fat through small-cannula liposuction, then instantly contracts loose skin using a dual-energy RF + helium-plasma handpiece (often Renuvion®).

You’ll enjoy dramatic contouring without a facelift and with only local anesthesia plus light sedation.

Ideal for : Adults with a double chin or mild “turkey neck” who want definition without major surgery.

How the Procedure Works: A Closer Look

  1. Prep & anesthesia

    Performed under tumescent local anesthesia with optional oral sedation, so you stay awake yet comfortable—no general anesthesia needed.

  2. Core steps

    Three tiny (≈3 mm) incisions—one behind each earlobe and one in the chin fold—let us gently suction excess fat, then pass the Renuvion® wand to contract and tighten the skin. These entry points heal into dots that are almost impossible to see.

  3. Duration & immediate after-care

    Expect 60–90 minutes start to finish; you’ll head home the same day wearing a soft chin strap and clear, bilingual recovery instructions.

  4. Long-term healing & follow-up

    Minimal to zero bruising is typical; light swelling resolves by week 2, and collagen-driven tightening peaks around month 3. Our 12-month doctor-guided follow-up keeps your progress on track.

Is This the Right Treatment for Me?

  • Ideal candidate
    Within ≈20 lb of goal weight and still has decent skin “snap” that needs a little help tightening.
  • Downtime
    Two easy days, nightly chin-strap wear for one week, and workouts resume on day 10.
  • When to reconsider
    Significant laxity, bleeding disorders, or uncontrolled diabetes may limit safety or results.
  • Alternatives
    RF microneedling, injectable contouring, or a surgical neck lift.
