Who is a Candidate for Neck Liposuction?

Neck liposuction candidates must be at their goal weight for their height and possess good overall physical and emotional health. After a physical examination and discussing your cosmetic goals, Dr. Wirth can determine if Neck liposuction in Newport Beach is the best option for you. You may be a good candidate for neck liposuction if you meet some of the following criteria:

  • You have unwanted fat in your neck region
  • You possess a good underlying bone architecture
  • You do not have excessively loose or sagging neck skin

Expanded Details on the Neck Liposuction Procedure

At Wirth Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, we aim to provide not only transformative results but also a clear understanding of the procedure. Neck liposuction is typically performed under local anesthesia with IV sedation or general anesthesia, depending on your comfort level and medical profile.

Dr. Wirth uses a small cannula—inserted through discreet incisions behind the ears—to carefully suction out excess fat while sculpting and tightening the neck contours.

Will I have visible scars?

Dr. Wirth uses tiny incisions placed behind the ears. Scarring is minimal and usually well-concealed.
