Neck Liposuction Recovery Guide
Recovery after neck liposuction is generally quick compared to more invasive facial procedures, but it still requires attention to ensure optimal results.
Typical recovery timeline:
- First Few Days: Mild swelling, bruising, and soreness are common. Compression garments may be worn to support healing.
- Week 1: Most patients return to daily activities, though strenuous exercise should be avoided.
- Weeks 2–4: Swelling continues to subside. Early results become noticeable.
- 3–6 Months: Final results emerge as tissues settle and skin adapts to the new contours.
Recovery tips for the best outcome:
- Follow all post-operative instructions from Dr. Torkian
- Wear compression garments as directed
- Avoid heavy lifting and strenuous activity for at least 2 weeks
- Keep incisions clean and protected
- Attend all follow-up appointments to ensure proper healing
Many patients are surprised at how quickly they return to normal life after neck liposuction, making it a popular choice for those with busy schedules.
