I’m 50, female, and I have a great body for my age. My only problems are my face and neck. I’m considering having neck liposuction and a facelift. Can these procedures be performed at the same time?

The nomenclature of these procedures can be confusing. Neck liposuction can be performed as an isolated procedure. A facelift can be performed as an isolated procedure as well, but a facelift operation includes addressing the neck in one way or another. Depending on the patient, I either perform neck liposuction or direct fat excision with platysmal muscle tightening as part of the facelift surgery. It is not a matter of can they be done at the same time. They should be done at the same time.

I’ve heard that during neck liposuction, the incision is sometimes made in the mouth. If this is done, will I have to be cautious about what I eat after neck liposuction? If so, how long?

I have always used an external incision under the chin for neck liposuction. The resulting scar is often hard to find, once healed. I do not see any benefit in making an intraoral incision. Nevertheless, I ask my patients refrain from vigorous chewing for one week to limit movement beneath the chin.
