Ever since I was a child, I had a fat deposit in the front of my neck that resembled a goitre. Doctors always questioned me about it and sent me to have ultrasounds, which revealed that my thyroid is normal (.no goitre!) The mass is soft and fatty, and it grows bigger/smaller with my weight.I saw a doctor,he told me that the option to improve the appearance of my neck is with reductive massages.I wanted to find out the options by myself to remove it, what can I do? liposuction work?
Answer: I Have a Neck Mass/fat Deposit That Resembles a Goiter. Will Liposuction Solve This? Liposuction may be reasonable in your case pending an exam. I would search for the board certified plastic surgeon who you feel is most likely to give you the best results and who performs hundreds of these procedures each year. I would look at patient reviews as well as before and after photos on that surgeon's website.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

CONTACT NOW Answer: Will liposuction fix my neck mass? Your neck mass is not apparent in some of your photographic angles, which indicates it may be relatively thin. Ultrasound was negative for goiter, however, thyroid function tests may be helpful in your pre-op work up. Liposuction with micro canulas will improve your contour.Look for a board certified plastic surgeon, experienced in micro facial liposuction.Yours,Jon M.

Answer: Liposuction and abnormal fat deposits in the neck. For the picture it looks as though you do have some excess subcutaneous fat. And in person examination would be necessary to substantiate this. If it's the case than it can be treated with liposuction probably just with local anesthesia.

Answer: Liposuction for Neck Fat Liposuction is commonly performed for fatty deposits of the neck and jowls. This can often be done under local anesthesia with or without IV sedation. The recovery is easy and can be readily performed as an outpatient. If this fullness of the neck is truly just a fatty deposit then liposuction may be an alternative for you. For the best results seek the consultation of a plastic surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery. They have a website listing all the certified plastic surgeons. Members of the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery will all be board certified in plastic surgery and have demonstrated an interest and competence in cosmetic plastic surgery as well.
