What is VASER Liposuction on the chin?
VASER liposuction is an advanced form of liposuction that uses ultrasound energy to break down fat cells before removal. Unlike traditional liposuction, it targets fat precisely while preserving surrounding tissues like blood vessels and nerves, resulting in faster healing, less bruising, and smoother outcomes. At Dr Cotrufo’s Harley Street clinic, VASER liposuction is often used on the lower face and neck to sculpt and define features that may be hidden by ageing or stubborn fat deposits. That is why so many request VASER Liposuction on the Chin. The procedure is minimally invasive and can be combined with other facial surgeries for maximum effect for both volume reduction and skin contraction.
How Does VASER Liposuction on the chin Work?
The procedure begins with injecting a tumescent solution that numbs the area and shrinks blood vessels. Next, a small probe emits ultrasound waves that gently loosen the fat, which is then removed via suction. This method enables Dr Cotrufo to sculpt delicate areas, like under the chin or along the jawline, with exceptional control and safety. In many of Dr Cotrufo’s combined procedures, this approach is used before or during a deep plane facelift to enhance jawline contour and neck definition while enhancing the ability of the skin to redrape over your deep facial structures, such as jawline, submental are, upper neck and cervicomental angle.
What Is a Deep Plane Facelift?
Unlike traditional facelifts that pull the skin tight, a deep plane facelift addresses the underlying muscle and connective tissue (SMAS layer), allowing for a natural lift that avoids a “done” look. It repositions sagging fat and soft tissue to restore youthful structure while reducing tension on the skin. Following an independent training in Maxillofacial Surgery for 4 years at the University College Hospital in London, Dr Stefano Cotrufo trained in deep plane techniques in New York between 2018 and 2022 and has since refined his method in Harley Street, offering patients exceptional facial harmony and discreet incision placement.
Deep Plane face and neck lifting is often combined with eyelid surgery, midface lifting and lip lifting.
Does VASER Liposuction Tighten Skin?
Yes, VASER liposuction can aid in skin tightening by stimulating collagen production as the fat is emulsified and removed. When used alongside a deep plane facelift, it enhances tightening in the lower face and neck, especially in patients who have both skin laxity and unwanted fat. Dr Cotrufo frequently tailors this combined approach to younger patients showing early signs of ageing, or older patients seeking dramatic yet natural improvements.
Is VASER Liposuction on the chin and neck Safe?
Performed by an experienced, GMC-registered plastic surgeon like Dr Stefano Cotrufo, VASER liposuction is a safe and effective method of body and facial contouring. The ultrasound-assisted technique reduces trauma to surrounding tissues, leading to quicker recovery and less bruising. Safety is a cornerstone of Dr Cotrufo’s surgical philosophy. All procedures begin with a thorough consultation and health screening to ensure the best possible outcome.
