Do You Think Neck Liposuction is Worth It?

It is impossible to say whether or not neck lipo is worhtwhile for a specific individual without a hands-on evaluation. A major variable is skin tone. For a younger person with localized fat accumulation, it can be a very good choice. Older patients might need a facelift because the skin would be too loose after lipo alone. Then there are patients in between, typically in their 40's, who do very well with a combination of lipo with Thermage. It's not a substitute for facelift, but where there is a little bit of skin laxity the results are better. Some examples here: http://www.drbaxter.com/thermage.html.

Liposuction is the gold standard for treatment of the neck - unlike other treatments it is permanent. Patients generally get excellent results.
