INFORMED CONSENTS

Neck liposuction is the surgical technique used to remove the accumulation of fat located under the skin. I understand that the purpose of my surgery is to try to improve the appearance of localized areas on my body. I have been completely upfront and honest with my physician regarding my motivation for undergoing liposuction, understanding that a new appearance does not guarantee an improved life. He provided my physician with a complete and accurate medical and social history, being aware that withholding certain information may negatively affect my diagnosis and treatment and the final outcome of my surgery. It has been explained to me that neck liposuction is an appropriate surgical technique for selected patients. It is not a substitute for weight reduction that can normally be achieved through diet and exercise, and it is not a cure for obesity. It has also been explained to me that my physical condition may require a neck lift in which excess skin and fat can be removed instead of, or in addition to, neck liposuction. If you use tobacco, I understand that this could complicate surgery, anesthesia, healing, results, and longevity.
