Facial Liposuction in Mexico

The procedure involves the following steps:

1. Consultation and evaluation: The surgeon analyzes facial structure and creates a personalized plan.
2. Anesthesia: Local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia is administered based on the case.
3. Minimal incisions: Small incisions are made under the chin or behind the ears.
4. Fat removal: A thin cannula is inserted to remove fat in a controlled manner.
5. Facial sculpting: Contours are shaped for a balanced and natural result.
6. Closure and recovery: Compression bandages are applied to reduce swelling and help the skin adapt.

• Enhances jawline and facial contours.
• Removes stubborn fat that does not respond to diet and exercise.
• Minimally invasive procedure with nearly invisible scars.
• Natural and long-lasting results.
• Faster recovery compared to other facial surgeries.

The procedure typically lasts 45 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the amount of fat removed and whether it is combined with other treatments.

Most cases require local anesthesia with sedation, though general anesthesia may be used in some instances.

Ideal candidates are individuals who are in good overall health, have a stable weight, and are looking to reduce stubborn fat deposits in specific areas of their face. It’s also important to have realistic expectations about the results.

• It is not a solution for extreme skin laxity; a facelift may be needed in such cases.
• Final results may take a few weeks to fully appear.
• Maintaining a healthy lifestyle helps prolong the effects of the surgery.

Most patients experience some swelling and bruising, but these effects typically subside within a few weeks. Most people can return to normal activities within 5 to 7 days, although strenuous exercise should be avoided for a few weeks.

• Wear a compression band for the first few days to reduce swelling.
• Apply cold compresses to minimize bruising.
• Keep your head elevated while sleeping to prevent fluid buildup.
• Avoid physical exertion and sun exposure for at least two weeks.
• Follow all medical instructions and take prescribed medications as directed.

You may notice some improvement right after the procedure, but the final results typically become visible within 3 to 6 months, as swelling subsides and the face settles into its new contours.

Proper preparation helps minimize risks and ensures a smoother recovery. Follow these key steps:

• Consult with your surgeon: Discuss your goals, medical history, and any concerns.
• Avoid smoking and alcohol: Stop at least two weeks before surgery for better healing.
• Follow medical guidelines: Do not take blood thinners unless approved by your doctor.
• Plan for post-operative care: Set up a comfortable recovery area with necessary supplies.
