I've read conflicting things about liposuction on the face, and am wondering what others here have to say. I have excess fat around my mouth - I've seen it referred to here at times as perioral mounds. It isn't buccal fat, and from close research it doesn't seem related to the masseter. I wouldn't schedule anything without more careful consultation. But I am curious whether liposuction of the face is universally considered too risky, or if there are cases where it might be a viable treatment?

Answer: #facialliposuction facial liposuction, just like Liposuction in general, largely depends upon the doctor. I have done facial liposuction in 100's of my patients. its easier for me to say that its a safe procedure. but that doesn't mean anything as I have no idea who you will see as your doctor and what their experiences have been over the yrs. just like any other part of the body one can get defects on the face as well. and can get injury to the underlying nerves and blood vessels.

Answer: Facial liposuction Liposuction of the lower face can definitely be performed but it must be done by a doctor familiar with the anatomy and the nuances of the micro-liposuction technique. In this technique only very small cannulas are used with the precision,small amount of fat is removed. Lower face, such as jowls, are the best areas to treat. Please see few doctors regarding liposuction consultation before making decision to proceed or not with the procedure.I hope that helps
