Procedure

What is Neck Liposuction?

A well-defined jawline and elegant neck contour are key features of a balanced facial profile. However, excess fat beneath the chin and around the neck can create the appearance of a heavier, less defined lower face, even in individuals who maintain a healthy weight. Neck Liposuction removes localised fat deposits from the neck and beneath the jawline, restoring natural definition and improving the transition between the face and neck. Performed by Dr Yannis Alexandrides, the procedure is individually planned around your anatomy and aesthetic goals.

Expected Effects & Benefits

Permanently removes unwanted neck fat
Improves definition between the chin and neck
Enhances jawline contour and overall facial balance

Your Journey

Your Neck Liposuction Journey

Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with Dr Yannis Alexandrides. He will take time to understand your concerns, medical history, lifestyle and desired result, alongside a detailed assessment of your neck and jawline, including fat distribution, skin quality, tissue laxity, facial proportions and overall symmetry.

This allows Dr Yannis Alexandrides to determine whether Neck Liposuction is appropriate for you and create a personalised surgical plan designed to reduce localised fullness, improve the jaw-to-neck transition and create a more defined, balanced neck contour.

Ahead of surgery, you will have a comprehensive pre-operative assessment with our nursing team. This includes a review of your medical history, current medications, lifestyle and overall health, alongside any physical assessment or clinical tests required for your individual surgical plan.

Our team will explain what to expect before and after surgery, answer any questions and ensure you are appropriately prepared for your procedure and recovery.

Good nutrition, hydration and healthy lifestyle habits can help prepare your body for surgery and support the healing process. You will receive personalised guidance on diet, medications, exercise, smoking cessation where appropriate, and practical preparation before your procedure.

Every recommendation is tailored to your individual health, lifestyle and surgical plan to ensure your preparation is appropriate for you.

Preparing the skin and tissues forms an important part of our 360° approach. Ahead of your procedure, our team may recommend a personalised programme to optimise tissue condition and prepare the neck area for surgery.

Where appropriate, this may include LPG Endermologie®, ElixirMD Light Therapy, 111SKIN skincare or Dr Yannis Alexandrides’ Dramatic Healing Serum, selected according to your individual skin, tissues and surgical plan.

Our care continues well beyond your procedure. Following Neck Liposuction, our clinical team will monitor your healing through scheduled reviews, with particular attention to swelling, tissue settling and your developing neck and jawline contours.

You will receive personalised guidance on compression, activity and caring for the treatment area. Where appropriate, LPG Endermologie® may form part of your post-operative programme to support lymphatic drainage and tissue mobility, while an IV drip or other post-operative support may also be recommended according to your recovery.

As your recovery progresses, Dr Yannis Alexandrides and our clinical team will review your neck contour, jawline definition, skin quality, incision sites and developing result at scheduled follow-up appointments.

Where appropriate, personalised scar care, skincare and selected treatments may be recommended to support skin quality, scar maturation and the long-term definition of your result.

Procedure

How does Neck Liposuction work?

Neck Liposuction works by removing localised fat deposits through small, discreet incisions placed in natural creases around the ears or beneath the chin. A fine liposuction cannula gently removes excess fat while meticulously sculpting the jawline and lower face, achieving smooth transitions rather than simply reducing volume. Because the fat cells removed do not return, the improvement in neck and jawline definition is designed to be permanent.

UNDERSTANDING NECK FULLNESS:

Excess fat beneath the chin and around the neck can soften facial definition regardless of weight or lifestyle.
These localised deposits are often resistant to diet and exercise.
Neck Liposuction specifically targets these stubborn fat pockets.

WHY PRECISION MATTERS:

The aim is to enhance your natural anatomy, not create an overly sculpted or artificial appearance.
Every procedure is tailored to reveal the underlying structure of your face.

Results are designed to look refined and completely natural.

Procedure

Surgical Techniques & Technology

Standalone Neck Liposuction

Performed alone for patients whose primary concern is fat rather than skin laxity, often under local anaesthetic.

Combined with Chin Liposuction

Performed together to achieve comprehensive contouring of the chin and neck in one procedure.

Combined with Neck Lift

Paired with a Neck Lift when skin laxity or platysma banding also requires correction.

Combined with Facelift

Performed alongside a Facelift for patients seeking more comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

Compression Garment Support

Worn after surgery to support newly sculpted contours, reduce swelling and promote optimal healing.

Your Journey

The 5-Step Process

Consultation

A comprehensive facial and neck assessment with Dr Yannis Alexandrides to understand your concerns, evaluate your anatomy and create a personalised surgical plan.

1

Preparation

Pre-operative health assessment, medication review and personalised guidance on nutrition, lifestyle, skin and tissue preparation.

2

Surgery

Neck Liposuction performed under under local or TIVA Anaesthesia, using a technique tailored to your individual fat distribution, neck anatomy and desired result.

3

Recovery

Post-operative compression, activity guidance and structured clinical aftercare as swelling subsides and the neck contours begin to emerge.

4

Long Term Care

Ongoing clinical review, personalised skin and scar care and selected treatments where appropriate to support skin quality and the definition of your result.

5

Your Journey

Recovery Timeline

1–2 Weeks

Initial swelling, bruising and tenderness progressively subside as the neck begins to heal. Compression is worn as advised by your surgical team to support the treatment area during early recovery.

2–6 Weeks

Swelling continues to reduce and greater definition through the neck and jawline gradually becomes visible. Everyday activity can progressively increase, with exercise reintroduced according to your recovery and the guidance of your surgical team.

6 Weeks–6 Months

The tissues continue to settle and the neck and jawline contours become increasingly refined and natural. Residual swelling progressively resolves and the skin continues to adapt to the underlying contour.

6–12 Months

The longer-term result becomes increasingly established as the tissues fully settle. Subtle refinement may continue as the treatment area adapts and the final neck definition develops.

Long-Term Care

Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle can help support the longevity of your Neck Liposuction result. Where appropriate, LPG Endermologie®, personalised skincare and selected non-surgical treatments may also be recommended to support tissue and skin quality over time.

Your Journey

Post surgery activity guidelines

Shower

48 HOURS

Risks & Complications

These risks are discussed in detail during consultation, alongside the steps taken to reduce them through careful planning, surgical technique and aftercare.

  Very Impressed With My Rhinoplasty I had been unhappy with the shape of my nose for years and finally decided to look into rhinoplasty. Choosing the right surgeon and clinic was extremely important to me, so I spent a lot of time researching before booking my consultation at 111 Harley St. The consultation was detailed and reassuring, and I appreciated the focus on achieving a result that suited my face rather than simply changing my nose. The whole process was handled professionally, from the initial consultation through to the follow-up appointments. My nose now looks much more balanced with the rest of my face, and the improvement is significant without looking artificial.

  I had my consultation with Anna and honestly couldn’t have been happier with the experience. She took the time to really listen to all of my concerns and went through everything with me in so much detail, including the different treatment options. I really appreciated how thorough and attentive she was, and the whole consultation felt very personal and tailored specifically to me rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. I felt really comfortable and well looked after. I’m really happy with the experience and will definitely be coming back for my treatment. Thank you so much, Anna!

  A Wonderful Experience I decided to explore a Y Facelift after becoming increasingly unhappy with the loss of definition around my lower face. I was initially quite nervous about having facial surgery, so having a detailed consultation was really important to me. Everything was explained clearly and I felt comfortable asking lots of questions. I’m so pleased with the outcome my face looks fresher and more defined, but it still looks completely like me.

  The Best Decision I Made I had a facelift at 111 Harley Street. From my very first consultation, I felt completely comfortable and confident that I was in safe hands. The surgeon took the time to understand what I wanted to achieve and explained every stage of the process clearly, from the operation itself to the recovery and expected results. The care I received was outstanding from start to finish. Every member of the team was kind, professional, and incredibly supportive. They were always available to answer any questions, and I felt genuinely looked after throughout my entire journey. Now that I've fully recovered, I am absolutely delighted with the results. I look refreshed, younger, and far more confident, while still looking completely natural. The best compliment I've received is that people keep telling me I look really well without realising I've had surgery. It's exactly the subtle, natural result I was hoping for. Choosing 111 Harley Street was one of the best decisions I've made. The expertise, attention to detail, and exceptional aftercare exceeded all of my expectations. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone considering a facelift.

I had plastic surgery from doctor Ashvani in 2019 and he messed up my tummy completely. I lost all my sensation in my tummy area and after 7 years, I still regret of having tummy tuck with him. He stitched my whole tummy tuck area without leaving drainage after the operation. I ended up having this massive hole in my tummy area. I have the most horrible scars and I don’t wear bikini for not showing my belly button. You can see how bad his stitches are from the photo. Please do your research before you trust him so you don’t regret like I did. My friend had similar operation in Turkey and you would not even notice she had plastic surgery.my advice is  go to Turkey to have proper plastic surgery with surgeons who knows how do operate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Am I a suitable candidate for Neck Liposuction?

Neck Liposuction is generally suitable for patients who are concerned by excess fat beneath the chin or around the neck and who have good skin elasticity. Dr Yannis Alexandrides will assess your anatomy during consultation to confirm the most appropriate treatment.

Will Neck Liposuction look natural?

Yes. The aim is not to dramatically change your appearance but to restore natural definition to the jawline and neck. Every procedure is tailored to your facial proportions so results appear balanced and in harmony with your existing features.

Is Neck Liposuction painful?

The procedure is performed under local or general anaesthetic, so you will remain comfortable throughout surgery. Most patients experience mild soreness, swelling and tightness afterwards, managed with prescribed pain relief.

Will I have visible scars?

The incisions used are very small and carefully placed within natural creases beneath the chin or around the ears wherever possible. As they heal, scars typically become discreet and difficult to notice.

How long is the recovery?

Most patients are able to return to work within five to ten days, although swelling and bruising may take several weeks to fully resolve. A compression garment supports healing during the early stages of recovery.

How long do the results last?

The fat removed during Neck Liposuction is permanently eliminated. While natural ageing continues, maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle will help preserve your results for many years.

Can Neck Liposuction be combined with other procedures?

Yes. Neck Liposuction is frequently combined with Chin Liposuction, a Neck Lift or Facelift when additional contouring or skin tightening is required.

How much does Neck Liposuction cost?

Neck Liposuction pricing begins from £7,000. The final cost varies depending on the complexity of the procedure and whether it is performed alongside other facial surgeries; a personalised quotation is provided following consultation.
