For patients considering options to address fat in the neck or jawline area, non-surgical treatments are available as an alternative to liposuction. These methods may be preferred by patients who want to avoid surgery or are not suitable candidates for it.
At Chelsea Cosmetics, treatments are offered following a consultation to assess suitability and discuss possible risks, recovery, and expected changes.
Several approaches may be available for patients considering treatment in this area. Options can include non-surgical methods or liposuction as a surgical procedure. The choice depends on factors such as medical history, the presence of fat in the area, and individual goals.
During consultation, different approaches will be discussed, including their potential benefits, risks, and recovery time. This ensures that patients have the information they need to make an informed decision.
Neck and jawline treatments may be considered for patients aged 18 years or older who have fat in these areas that has not responded to lifestyle measures such as diet and exercise. These treatments do not address changes in skin elasticity.
Suitability will be assessed through a review of your medical history and current health status. This includes any previous procedures, allergies, or underlying conditions that may affect the outcome or recovery.
If you are considering fat dissolving injections, we invite you to schedule a consultation with Dr Mark Attalla at Chelsea Cosmetics Melbourne.
During your consultation, Dr Attalla will discuss your goals, assess your suitability, and explain what the procedure involves, including recovery and expected outcomes.
Request ConsultationTreatments are performed after consultation and preparation of the area. Temporary side effects such as swelling, bruising, redness, numbness, or tenderness can occur and resolve over time. More serious risks may include nerve irritation or difficulty swallowing.
Recovery times vary from person to person and may depend on the number of sessions required. Some patients return to light activities, while others may require more time. Clear aftercare instructions will be provided to support recovery and reduce risks.
The response to treatment differs between patients, and outcomes vary. Some changes may become noticeable gradually as the body responds to the treatment. Full results, if they occur, may take several weeks to months, depending on individual healing and how the body processes the treated fat.
During consultation, you will receive detailed information about what the procedure may involve, including side effects, aftercare, and follow-up appointments.
