| | Abstract | Many cosmetic surgical procedures, including cervico facial liposuction, are appropriately performed by oral surgeons in conjunction with orthognathic and other reconstructive techniques. The technique can be safely and predictably used to remove localized deposits of fat from the face and neck of carefully selected patients. Cervicofacial liposuction adds little to overall operating time, and has few complications. The history and biology of this procedure are discussed. | | Language | eng | | Pub Type(s) | Journal Article
