What are the risks to this procedure??? I had a chin implant very unhappy very little minor results and will definitely get a bigger implant in the future.. I really want a jawline and my cheeks seem to dominate my face. Id like lipo on sides of my face and cheeks ...
Answer: Cheek Liposuction Perfectly Safe I perform Cheek Liposuction in my Manhattan office several times each week and find it to be quite safe and very effective. In fact, I use it because of my frustration with the subtle outcomes I've gotten using buccal fat removal alone. For my patients with truly chubby cheeks I sometimes do both procedures. Combined with chin and neck liposuction, we can create a very elegant facial structure. I invite you to check out my blog (attached).Good Luck!

Answer: Liposuction of the cheek can be dangerous...of the neck...a bit safer I would not recommend liposuction in the cheek area. In addition to the risk of damaging nerves and blood vessels, it can create a very abnormal contour. When cheeks are plump, it is usually a sign of fat descent or fat redistribution in the face. Fat such as this should usually be repositioned as opposed to removed. Liposuction of the neck is much safer...if done correctly.

Answer: Liposuction above the line of the jaw is usually not a good idea. In younger patients prominent sheiks occasionally benefit from reduction of the buccal fat pad perform to the inside of the mouth. Seldom does a situation exist where liposuction of the subcutaneous fat above the jawline is aesthetically a good choice.

Answer: Is cheek liposuction dangerous? The short answer is potentially yes. Buccal fat pad removal which is done from inside the mouth, has the potential to damage the facial nerve as does superficial liposuction in the cheek area. The facial nerve works all the expressive muscles in your face. As others have said it would be unusual for liposuction of subcutaneous fat above the jawline to be a good choice.
