What Is Neck Liposuction?
Neck liposuction is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that removes stubborn fat from under the chin and along the jawline. Using a thin, hollow tube called a cannula, Dr. Caceres carefully suctions excess fat to sculpt and redefine the neck and lower face. This procedure is especially effective for:
- Double chin removal (also known as submental fat removal)
- Creating a more defined jawline and chin
- Enhancing facial balance without the need for a full facelift
It can be performed as a standalone treatment or combined with a facelift and/or a neck lift for more comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

FAQs About Neck Liposuction in St. Petersburg, FLÂ
Am I a good candidate for neck liposuction?
Good candidates are healthy individuals with excess fat beneath the chin or along the jawline that does not respond to diet or exercise. Dr. Caceres will evaluate your skin quality, anatomy, and goals to determine if liposuction alone—or in combination with a facelift or neck lift—is the right approach.
What happens during the neck liposuction procedure?
The procedure is performed using tiny incisions hidden under the chin and behind the ears. After numbing the area, a cannula is used to gently remove unwanted fat and sculpt the neck. Surgery typically takes under an hour and is done on an outpatient basis.
What is recovery like after neck liposuction?
You may experience swelling, bruising, and minor discomfort for a few days. Most patients return to work within 3–5 days and resume full activity within 2–3 weeks. A compression garment may be worn to support healing and enhance results.
Who shouldn’t get neck liposuction?
Neck liposuction may not be recommended for patients with poor skin elasticity, bleeding disorders, or uncontrolled medical conditions. Smokers and individuals with unrealistic expectations may also be better suited to alternative treatments. Risks will be discussed during your consultation.
How much does neck liposuction cost in St. Petersburg, FL?
Costs vary based on the extent of fat removal and whether additional procedures are performed. Financing options are available to make planning for your treatment more convenient. The treatment plan provided during your consultation will include a detailed cost breakdown.
How long do results from neck liposuction last?
Results are considered long-lasting as long as your weight remains stable. Full results become visible within a few weeks as swelling resolves.
Can neck liposuction be combined with other procedures?
Yes. Many patients combine neck liposuction with a facelift, neck lift, or buccal fat removal for more dramatic facial sculpting. Dr. Caceres will customize your treatment plan based on your goals.
