Introduction
In general, facial liposuction improves facial contour and achieves a slimming effect by using methods such as negative pressure suction to remove subcutaneous fat tissue. The usual reference price is 10,000–30,000 yuan per session. Noticeable improvement is typically seen within 1–3 weeks after surgery; however, complications such as facial infection and hematoma may occur.
Generally, facial liposuction improves facial contours and achieves a slimming effect by removing subcutaneous fat tissue using negative pressure suction. The usual reference price ranges from 10,000 to 30,000 yuan per session. Noticeable improvement is typically seen within 1-3 weeks after surgery, although possible side effects may include facial infection and hematoma. Detailed explanation is as follows:
Facial liposuction is a cosmetic procedure that improves facial contours and reduces facial fat through surgical methods. During the procedure, one or more small incisions, typically 0.5-1 cm in length, are made in concealed areas of the face, such as behind the ears or along the jawline. Through these incisions, liposuction cannulas are inserted into the subcutaneous fat layer and connected to a negative pressure suction device, which is used to remove the fat tissue. The surgeon performs liposuction according to the preoperative design and the distribution of facial fat, aiming to achieve the desired facial contour. After the surgery, the incisions are sutured, and an elastic facial mask is worn to aid shaping, reduce swelling, and promote skin adhesion.
Facial liposuction carries certain risks, including infection, bleeding, uneven skin surface, and nerve damage. Therefore, patients should be cautious when choosing this procedure and opt for reputable medical institutions and experienced surgeons to ensure surgical safety and outcomes.
