Question

Is it possible to have liposuction to the neck and buccal fat reduction in combination?

What would be the cost implication?

Is buccal fat reduction quite limited in terms of how much reduction it can achieve or does it largely depend on how chubby the cheeks are of the person having it done?

Answer

My approach to facial sculpting is that it is target oriented rather than procedure oriented.

Because of that I would start with a consultation using 3-D imaging and simulation to try and define the type and extent of changes that you would like to achieve.

If they are within the range of surgical change, they may require one procedure, or a combination of procedures carried out typically at the same time.

For cheek contouring, liposuction and buccal fat reduction can be combined, and certainly neck liposuction can be combined with buccal fat reduction.
