Lipodissolve before surgery?

Question

I have a surgery coming up on C5-C7 of my neck, and they will be going in through the front of my neck. I have two concerns. Is it safe to get lipodissolve injections for my double chin one month before my surgery. If not, then is it safe to get the injections one month after my surgery?

William Portuese, MD · Answer

Probably best to undergo the functional surgery first, heal up from that, and then consider undergoing any type of cosmetic procedure. A full set of facial and neck photographs are required to make a bet the best determination for what is the appropriate procedure for you. It's also very important to understand that there are two compartments of fat in the neck, and they are located both above and below the platysma muscle in your neck. Liposuction can only remove the fat compartment above the muscle, while a surgical neck lift is required to remove the compartment fat below the muscle. This also includes a platysma plasty to significantly improve the jawline.
