When one thinks about liposuction, they are usually considering the procedure for areas of their body like the stomach, thighs, hips, etc. However, facial liposuction is often performed for areas of the face such as the neck or jowls. A special tool, the cannula, is inserted through a tiny incision placed in an inconspicuous location on the face or neck. Using a suction syringe or pump attached to the cannula, the fat cells are extracted. The result is a resculpting of bulging areas into more attractive and more youthful facial contours.
