- To suck out this liquified fat, your surgeon will insert a small, vacuum-like cannula.
- For a cannula, very small incisions are made which are stitched using dissolvable sutures.
- If you are left with loose sagging skin at the chin after fat removal, you need a neck lift.
- For a neck lift, your surgeon will make incisions from behind the scalp along the hairline towards the ears’ back.
- Now the extra skin will be cut off, and the rest will be pulled tightly and stitched.
